The Kijimuna (Okinawan: キジムナー, kijimunaa, also kijimun 木の精[1]), or Bunagaya, are creatures of the mythology native to the island of Okinawa.
One of their best-known tricks is to lie upon a person's chest, making them unable to move or breathe.
The kijimuna dislike people passing gas on their backs, however, and will immediately throw the human off, no matter where they were at the moment.
In Google Doodle Champion Island Games, The Kijimuna are described as having red hair and body and love racing on the beach.
Set in Okinawa, the anime The Aquatope on White Sand features a Kijimuna that appears frequently in earlier episodes.
