Adorably cheeky modern obi by KyoWakka inspired by folk hero Nezumi kozô, an Edo period Robin-hood-like folk hero actually named Nakamura Jirokichi.
The nickname Nezumi kozô lit. means "rat brat", but here the thief relieving the rich of their koban (oval gold coin) is... a cat!?
I love this design sooo much: the glowing lanterns of the party searching this phantom thief + the rat-shaped shadow are super cute details!
