Many kappa legends remain in Tanushimaru, Kurume City, Fukuoka Prefecture, and even the JR station is shaped like a kappa! We are kappa who live at a hospital in that town. Kappatsu-kun (green) has a history of winning a dance award at a Kurume City festival! This time, we’ll create a legend at this Grand Prix♪
