How to Survive a Kappa Attack

Here kappa kappa kappa...

Matt Alt from Alt Japan and co-author of the book series including Yurei Attack!: The Japanese Ghost Survival Guide and Yokai Attack!: The Japanese Monster Survival Guide recently gave a talk entitled How to Survive a Kappa Attack. You can listen to it and listen to the recoding at
http://www.pechakucha.org/presentations/how-to-survive-a-kappa-attack. You may recall that I happen to absolutely love kappa, but that doesn't mean that I am unaware of their potential danger. When I ventured around the ancient temples of Kyoto waving a cucumber, I knew what I was doing. Do not try this at home... unless you have listened to Matt's talk and you know how to survive.
