Red
As in most Asian cultures, red in Japan is the color of luck and good fortune. So shrines and temples very often have something red in them. Sometimes the entire thing is painted red, sometimes it’s just a statue or a torii. If nothing else, a plain gray statue will get a red cape, sometimes with rather amusing results.
However, not all shrines rank groundskeepers and tourists. There are many smaller, more personal shrines scattered around, particularly next to the larger houses. And some of them suffer from the best intentions in the world. Yes, this poor guy is actually wearing a red shower cap and curtain (sorry, I mean cape).
The Redhead and XDirtpushr arrived tonight! They both pretty much look like the walking dead, but they're here!
