#JLMyōkaioftheday : Amabie, or the Japanese legendary mermaid.

It has flowing hair, a mouth that is shaped like a bird’s beak, scales from the neck down, and 3 lower appendages (legs/tails).

It is said that seeing one brings good harvest, good sea weather, and a cure to all illnesses in the nearby area.

However, in some cases, it brings the exact opposite, especially when harmed or angered.
