Nurikabe
An invisible Yokai (except for when he’s represented like this), Nurikabe is a wall. It impedes travellers, making it impossible to move forward. The only way out is to knock on the lower-left portion of Nurikbe, and then he will let you go. As an aside, Shigeru Mizuki swore that he encountered this Yokai once while deployed in World War II he found a patch of jungle that he couldn’t walk through, even though there was no underbrush or foliage int he way. Interesting, that.
