Hello-Kitty’s bamboo rake at “Asakusa-TORINOICH”
I went to “TORINOICH” in Asakusa. “TORINOICH” is an anual festival held in many places around Tokyo in Nov. And the most famous is this one at Asakusa.

I found Hello-Kitty’s bamboo rake. A special thing on Torinoichi was “Bamboo Rake for good luck”.

A highly decorated bamboo rake was particular popular as goods to bring happiness and prosperity in business. That seemed to be contributed by Hello-Kitty’s company “Sanrio”.
Japan is also in resession time. Many people there prayed thier business success on next year.
