嗅 - Smell
In an Edo alley, a tiny dot of incense smoke curls upward, carrying a mysterious Smell.
A curious tanuki wiggles its Mouth, Entrance, sniffing eagerly at the air, trying to catch the Smell.
From a nearby stall, a steaming tray of stinky tofu releases a bold StinkingSmell, making the tanuki yelp “クンクン!” and spin in delight.
Lanterns sway above, casting golden light on the twisting smoke
dot and highlighting the nose’s twitch on the Mouth, Entrance.
The alley hums with summer festival drums, each beat mixing with the lingering
StinkingSmell, teaching you that to truly Smell is to notice every tiny component in the air.
