Creating new creatures from Japanese wordplay.

“SHIRITORI” is a Japanese word chain game. When someone says a word, we need to say the next word that starts with the last letter of the mentioned word.​​​​​​​

Express by mixing two words.

“RETOUCH SHIRITORI” created a new creature mixing two words in the game by a retouching.
