| This studio shot captures the key elements of Setsubun featuring two wooden masu boxes overflowing with roasted soybeans used for mamemaki. The powerful red Oni mask symbolizes the demons being driven away during the annual ritual. Rendered by Ai this image perfectly illustrates the transition from winter to spring in Japan.
