. Tajimi Jones, a friend on facebook .
She lives in Tajimi and shares a lot of the Kappa and other lore of the region.
Look at her Jizo Bosatsu, Kannon Bosatsu, Fudo Myo-O and more.

According to Tajimi Jones, kappa are big sumo fans! Both as spectators and as participants.

Tajimi is kappa country.
They are everywhere you might expect and just as many places as you would not expect;
such as, peering at you from behind a jar at a local bus stop.
Thank you, Tajimi Jones!
In Tajimi,Kappa are never feared but instead are regarded as celebrated members of the community - honored, revered, and loved.
Here are "Kappa Papa" and "Kappa Mama" plus the latest additions to their family, at the train station in Tajimi-shi.
