Sarekoube Manekineko

Sarekoube Manekineko has his right paw raised to attract money — he is all about business. His donburi bodysuit is adorned with skulls and flames. Donburi describes a torso tattooed fully across the front, with a half-moon dip at the top center that echoes the shape of a donburi bowl. That level of tattooing takes a great deal of time, and speaks to the perseverance of the wearer.The skulls ward off evil, and they let the world know that Sarekoube Manekineko does not fear death. He has luck on his side and he is here to help you make some money. Even the bell on his collar is skull-shaped — and gold, for the money.The Monmon Maneki Neko seriesYou have all seen the maneki neko — those cute cats at Japanese restaurants and businesses, beckoning people in and welcoming customers.
