Archetype

They’re cute, they’re sexy, and they toy with men’s hearts. They’re koakuma (“little devils”) and they represent a female archetype that has been around for as long as there have been men’s hearts to toy with.

French actress Brigitte Bardot is often described as the original little devil (at least in the modern age). Frequently cited examples of Japanese little devils include actress Kaga Mariko, who captured the heart of Nobel Prize-winning author Kawabata Yasunari and is said to have been the original Japanese “bad girl,” and actress Hazuki Riona.

Colours

“this year’s spring/summer palette is even brighter than usual, because it features a particularly eye-catching array of vivid fruity colors. From the orange hues of mango and apricot to the yellow-green of kiwi fruit, this year the watchword dominating summer fashion and consumer items is “juicy.” ”

Karakuri ningyo


“Japan’s mechanical dolls, or karakuri ningyo, are said to have come from China. The Edo period (1603-1867) brought development of a true clockwork-doll culture, spurred by the Takeda-za, a mechanical-puppet theater founded in 1662 in Osaka’s Dotonbori district.

The chahakobi ningyo, or tea-serving doll, is the best known of Japan’s mechanical dolls. When a “master” places a cup of tea on the tray held by the doll, it will walk straight to a guest. When the guest takes the teacup, the doll stops and waits until the guest drinks the tea and places the cup back on the tray. Then it executes a U-turn and returns to its master. The spring inside can be set to travel either the full width or half the width of one tatami mat.”
