kedama (touhou)
毛玉 (Kedama, "hair ball" or "pilling") are stage enemies that appear in the Touhou games.
Small white fluffy balls of hair. The Kedama that appear in Mountain of Faith have other colors sometimes. When Kedama are drawn, they have JASCII emoticons for faces.
Easily mistaken for f.o.e.s, which are orange in color rather than white.
