Long story short, I was in the Honda shop and a policeman gave me this rather adorable keyring. Not quite my style though.. Il send this one home 🙂 not that I’m challenge the Japanese police but they really don’t give off a very threatening vibe, I mean some of them are tiny and even in Japanese standards. But I get sense that people respect the rules here oppose to needing fear of the enforcement. Probably the safest country I’ve been to.
P.s Katie would you like this?

That’s not a keyring.
It’s a Shinto good-luck charm called an “o-ma-mo-ri”.
You hang in somewhere in your car or on a bag that you carry while you walk to help guard against being in a traffic accident.
The character on it is the Tokyo Police mascot “Pipo-kun”.

Awh yes that makes sense, thank you.
I have seen quite a few good luck charms around and even won one a couple nights ago, it was the 5yen piece with some string tied though the hole.
