A new posted video was delivered to Ichikawa. A couple fishing in a pond captured a strange creature that emerged from the surface of the water.
Direction
Shiraishi's fake doc mastery—blurrier than Blair Witch, somehow scarier.
Sound
That water sloshing? You'll never hear a pond the same way.
Practical Effects
The kappa design: wrong in all the right folkloric ways.
Director
Koji Shiraishi
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Kappa originally served as drowning warnings for children near water; Shiraishi restores their genuinely malevolent pre-modern reputation.
The fishing couple were non-actors who genuinely didn't know what creature design they'd encounter—Shiraishi wanted authentic shock reactions.
