Japanese festivities, whatever their form, always boast phenomenal amounts of food as well as a considerable collection of time-honoured togs and even tattoos. Entertainment on the other hand can vary wildly, all the way from horseback heroics to massive, erm, members. Plus, for those after some recreation as retro as their raiment, there may also be some monkey-based merriment to marvel at.
A practice that fortunately allows the performing primates in their pants to be just as pleased as the people who pay to watch them.
Perhaps.

Those are some of your best photographs, Lee! The first one is a cracker!
Lee says
Cheers Bunny! Just happened across it when out cycling, and luckily the photos came out better than I expected.

hee hee. The monkey looks so upset in the last picture 😉
Nice bokeh btw. Did you take these with the Nikon 85mm f/2.0 AI-s?
Lee says
Yeah, it wasn’t the happiest looking creature miachaelpanda. I did actually take these with an 85mm, but the Nikon f/1.4 AF.

I saw the first guy & the monkey at Tokyo Tower on March 20.
It was very entertaining!
