Santa-san peers over it, jingling bells: “Three strikes, you’re out!”
But the crescent moon, 三日月 (みかづき), smiles back, whispering “mi-mi-mi…”-its own way of counting.
Together they echo Japan’s Three Sacred Treasures-sword, mirror, jewel-reminding you that 三 isn’t just lines, it’s history, festivals, and rhythm chanting san-san-san.
