The popular yokai in this book include:

Amabie: Mermaid-like creatures with long hair, three legs and a beak. During the COVID-19 pandemic, Amabies gained renewed popularity in Japan as a symbol of protection, as many Japanese believe they could help ward off the virus. Kasaobake: Whimsical yokai depicted as a one-eyed, one-legged animated umbrellas. This creature is a tsukumogami (everyday objects that come to life after 100 years), and is known for hopping around on one foot and playing harmless pranks on people. Rokurokubi: Spooky yokai known for an ability to elongate its neck to incredible lengths, typically a night while maintaining a human appearance by day. Kappa: A water-dwelling being from Japanese folklore, depicted as a child-sized creature with a beak, webbed hands, and a dish-like depression on its head that holds water. Known for both mischievous and malevolent behavior, the kappa is said to lure people into the water to drown, but can be defeated by tricking it into spilling the water from its head bowl, rendering it powerless. Chochinobake: A haunted paper lantern with a single eye and a long, lolling tongue. As part of the tsukumogami category, it is believed to come to life after a hundred years, embodying the spirit of a once-useful everyday object now bringing mischief or revenge on its human masters. Plus dozens of other amazing Yokai!
