A Yokai Parade!

 One of these days, I definitely need to witness (or, even better, participate in) the Yokai Parade in Kyoto.

 Here's a snippet of it.

 

Hmm. It's going on right now. I have free time and no money. Dagnabbit! Otherwise I'd swing down there forthwith. If you wanna go, here is a link.

These are from my Oni book. I have an early day tomorrow, so I'll have to rely on Google for the narrative.

 

 

Here's something I'd never expected to see. I hope I don't upChucky.

Cat owners, have you ever had the urge to SCREAM at them?
 

Fortunately, I got the black cat, the best one.

 

A quick look at comics: (Topo the octopus: Aquaman, Hoppy* the kangaroo: Wonder Woman, Beppo the Super-monkey, Krypto the Super-dog: Superman, Streaky the Super-cat: Supergirl, Ace the Bat-hound: Batman.

 * may not be named Hoppy. Be sure to correct me in the comments.

And a quick Kampai to Cheers with Chelsea!
Now I'm off to bed, I have a long drive tomorrow morning...
