Kabamaru is a gray and black striped cat, and the leader of the pack. In this mischievous scene, Kabamaru and his pals take on the big, bad, red oni (demon). As part of the festivities on Setsubun no Hi (the start of spring), kids throw soy beans at oni who try to enter the house.
Use furoshiki to dress up a suit pocket for a wedding, wrap up your bento, a bottle of sake or wine as a gift, or wipe the sweat off your brow during your next hike.
