Tengu are supernatural creatures that appear in Japanese folklore, and this one looks really mad. And it should be! A rare snowfall in Kyoto broke his nose. However, the Japanese didn’t want to anger this demon (Buddhism long held that the tengu were disruptive demons and harbingers of war.), so they “healed” his wounds with a bandaid.
