June 3rd, 2023: Another geiko has appeared in Gion Kobu! Katsuemi (佳つ笑) of Odamoto (小田本) is celebrating her erikae! Her erikae had to be postponed a day due to heavy rains in Kyoto, but it was all worth it in the end. She is the first imōto of Katsue (佳つ江), also of Odamoto, to have her erikae and the second erikae within a week for the bustling district. Her outfit features folding fans with fancy cords and a golden pine obi ^^ おめでとうさんどす佳つ笑さん ^o^! Image is courtesy of Gion Tsudaro.
