It is no secret that Japan is quirky - which is why I love it! This is one of the quirky Japanese things. Just down the road from where Ebi-kun goes to aikido. It's a statue of a girl in a red bikini! And she is hanging out with a panda and a lion...
I thought there must be an interesting story behind it all - and just to be clear, we live in a landlocked prefecture - we are no-where near the sea or even a lake! Turns out that it was just a local who wanted to make a girl in a bikini!
Somebody give her a coat. ;-)
