The Call of CTHULHU in Tokyo!
Wikipedia: Cthulhu

All hail the Call of Cthulhu in Tokyo!
Yikes! My friend Rob Pongi found a Japanese incarnation of H.P. Lovecraft’s Great Old One, Cthulhu, in Kichijoji, Tokyo at the Hachimongu Shrine.
See Cthulhu in Rob’s video of a traditional Japanese New Year 2007 at about the two thirds point as seen below.
For more of the mythos of Cthulhu, see a slide show of the incarnations of The Dread One throughout the world and hear the Song of Cthulhu here.
In Japanese, learn more at: クトゥルフ神話(クトゥルフしんわ、Cthulhu Mythos) via Wikipedia.
