The deep meaning of the tiger in Japanese zodiac culture
In Japanese zodiac culture, the tiger has long been loved as an animal with a special meaning among the twelve animals of the Chinese zodiac.
The zodiac culture, which was introduced from China, has developed uniquely in Japan, and people born in the year of the tiger are said to be brave, have a strong sense of justice, and have excellent leadership skills.
As the proverb "If you don't enter the tiger's den, you won't catch the tiger cub" suggests, the tiger is deeply rooted in the hearts of Japanese people as a symbol of courage and challenge.
As a New Year's zodiac decoration and lucky charm, the tiger is an important figure that wards off evil spirits and wishes for good health and safety throughout the year.
K-021 Tiger is a special lucky charm that embodies the beautiful traditions and meaning of Japan's zodiac culture in an adorable palm-sized design.

Brave and righteous tiger characters often appear as protagonists or heroes in many anime works.
This adorable tiger figurine will be a souvenir that holds special meaning for children who see tigers on TV and admire them.
Its bright yellow body and beautiful stripes give it an adorable look that seems straight out of an anime world.
It is palm-sized and lightweight, so even children can handle it safely and cherish it as their own little tiger.
