The Nebuta lantern on display at Meguro Gajoen looked fierce as if ready to attack someone at any moment

The Hyakudan Staircase in Meguro Gajoen had seven rooms, each of which displayed different genres of events. The concept of this room was a festival. A large Nebuta lantern was placed in a not so large room.

The large lanterns were apparently actually used at the Nebuta Festival in Aomori. Among the several Nebuta lanterns on display, the one that caught my eye the most was the one with a bright red face. It had a sword in its hand and a fierce expression with its mouth wide open. It looked as if it was about to slash at anyone in the room at any moment.
