Ao-bōzu 青坊主

Aobōzu is a traditional monster from Japanese folklore, which has appeared in the art of Toriyama Sekien as well as the Hyakkai zukan, a collection of emaki scrolls by Sawaki Sūshi. Also known as: Me-hitotsu-bō 目一つ坊.

"When the wheat is green, the green monk is said to emerge from the verdant fields, and children who dally on their way home will be carried off by this monstrous bonze. Sekien Toriyama drew the ao-bōzu as an oddly-proportioned cyclops, which may have been inspired by other tales of one-eyed demons in priestly vestments, of which there are many." {The Obakemono Project}.
