Translation Notes
  1. Kappa are actually a type of water spirit and thus "Kappa" does not just mean "water spirit." Kappa (河童, "river-child") are legendary creatures; a type of water sprite found in Japanese folklore. Most depictions show kappa as child-sized humanoids, and sometimes with duck beaks. Kappa are usually seen as mischievous troublemakers. Kappa are also said to be afraid of fire, and some villages hold fireworks festivals each year to scare the spirits away. Wikipedia: Kappa, image.
  2. Marimo (毬藻), also known as Cladophora ball, Lake ball, or Moss Balls in English, is a species of filamentous green algae (Chlorophyta) found in a number of lakes in the northern hemisphere. A marimo is a rare growth form of the species where the algae grow into large green balls with a velvety appearance. Colonies of such balls are known only from Iceland, Japan and Estonia.
