100 Arhats (2013) was part of Murkami's 500 Arhats show at the Mori Art Museum. You can see a great deal of his traditional roots though brought to life by bright color and pop-art styling. More tiny skulls provide a background.

"727" by Takashi Murakami (1996; synthetic polymer paint on canvas board, three panels)
Murakami has created paintings, drawings, sculptures, prints, and a line of multiples—everything from dolls to stickers to mobile phone covers—that feature Mr. DOB (shown here), an anime character of his own invention. Appealingly childlike in his bright colors and simple graphics, Mr. DOB is proof of Murakami’s theory of a “superflat” world: the character has become an iconic figure both in contemporary art and with Japanese youth, crossing over almost seamlessly from fine art to popular culture. The title of the painting refers to the 727 brand of cosmetics, advertised on billboards in Japan.

In Love, Thieves and Fear Make Ghosts: old tales and new forms of Japanese ghosts, Innocent explores aspects of Japanese folklore in a contemporary context with styles borrowed heavily from the traditions of ukiyo-e (floating pictures) and manga (comics), and subsequent contemporary approaches such as Superflat. Showing at the Japan Foundation Gallery in Sydney until July 3rd, 2009.
Kitsune （きつね）
The fox (Kitsune), as with the Tanuki (racoon-dog) is a popular character in Japanese folklore and is often seen as a trickster, able to transform itself into human form, most often as young and beautiful women, and any children they bear will often have supernatural powers.
The tale of “Kuzunoha” tells the story of a young nobleman, Abe no Yasuna, who, on his way to visit a shrine in Shinoda, encounters a young military commissioner who is hunting foxes to obtain their livers for use as medicine. Yasuna battles the hunter and sets free the white fox he had trapped. Following this he meets a beautiful young women who tends to the wounds he sustained in the battle.
They return home together, fall in love and eventually marry. Later, she bears a child (a boy they call Seimei who grows up to be very clever). One day while Kuzunoha is distracted viewing the chrysanthemums in the garden her son catches a sight of the tip of her tail from beneath her kimono. Her secret is revealed, Kuzunoha departs to again live her life in the wild, leaving a farewell poem
which asks that her husband and son come to see her in the Shinoda Forest. Husband and son search for Kuzunoha and she appears to them in fox form, she tells them she is a kami (deific spirit) of Shinoda Shrine and she gives her son Seimei a gift, hoping he will one day come to comprehend the language of beasts.

I believe this is the original 1996 silkscreen of 727. In print form, these can be rather expensive and there have been several variations since it was first released. It features an aggressive-looking Mr. Dob in the center.

At the Buffalo Bill House in North Platte, NE.
I liked this house tour. The bottom floor is restored to original like when Buffalo Bill lived here, and the upper floors are a museum of Buffalo Bill memorabilia. It's self-guided and free, no stuffy tour guides or outrageous fees, or rules about not taking pictures. My type of place! :D
On the way back from Colorado, we made a short stop in North Platte, Nebraska, to check out Buffalo Bill's house and ranch. It's a really cool little place to stop, so I highly recommend it! Not to mention that North Platte is a cool town and has a lot of great old stuff to look at, especially a lot of cool old neon Motel signs! Hope I can visit again someday, even though Nebraska is superflat and makes hillbillies like me cry.

Release Chakra’s Gate at This Instant (2008) shows some of Murakami's classical Japanese art background. I just love these portrait pieces.
