    About Bake-Kujira

    Bake-Kujira is a colossal ghost-like whale, with parts composed of protoplasm and bones, and glowing blue eyes. As the Yokai of Despair in Japanese folklore, it appears as a skeletal whale, heralding uncertain tidings and bad fortune. Some mortals worship it to prevent the doom it foretells.
