Koohii Story 1 This kanji is, of course, pronounced "taku", and it seems the owner of this home is a little bit otaku himself. He has hung up locks of hair suruptitiously obtained from various females all over his house. A veritable hair fetishist, and certainly someone whose home you wouldn´t want to visit.
Koohii Story 2 Home is where the hair is.
