Tanuki are my favorite of this genre. We have several around the house that I brought back from my stay in Japan. The largest greets our visitors at the front door.

That's interesting. I didn't know they were good as pets... Wait a second, you mean statues and ornaments, right?

It's an early Saturday morning, and my brain takes time to wake up...

Thanks Euphemia, I'm glad you enjoyed my story. This is a shortish but very good walk in an area that, apart from Asakusa, is usually overlooked both by residents and travelers.
