The Nuppeppo is a yōkai that is genderless and estimated to be up to 1.5m in height. It is described to have a flabby appearance and its appearance is accompanied by a pungent body odor. It appears as a blob of flesh with a hint of a face in the folds of fat. It is also described as having fingers and toes that are vaguely defined lumps.
The Nuppeppo is passive and unaggressive. The body odor is said to rival that smell of rotting flesh. Other theories claim that the Nuppeppo is actually decaying flesh. There is a rumor that states that those who eat the flesh of a Nuppeppo shall have eternal youth.
The Nuppeppo aimlessly wanders deserted streets of villages, towns and cities, often at night towards the year-end, or graveyards or abandoned temples. It is normally solitary, but there are sightings of them in groups.

Edited National Diet Library chart of the twelve types of kappa (河童) (mythological water sprite/beast/monster/fairy/yokai) in Japan. The thing to remember if you ever get waylaid by a kappa is their fondness for cucumbers. Simply offer the accosting kappa a cucumber and you'll be on your way without further difficulty. Color/processing variant.

Tengu (heavenly dogs) are a class of supernatural creatures found in Japanese folklore, art, theater, and literature. They are one of the best known yōkai (monster-spirits) and are sometimes worshipped as Shinto kami (revered spirits or gods). Although they take their name from a dog-like Chinese demon (Tiangou), the tengu were originally thought to take the forms of birds of prey, and they are traditionally depicted with both human and avian characteristics.
