A guide for this piece: about $48, based on the 10% US charge on the declared value of goods made in Japan.
The final figure is set by US Customs and depends on where the piece was made and the kind of object it is. Many antiques over a century old carry no ordinary duty; most jewellery and leather goods add a single-digit rate.

The Captain and Her Tiger
Mina Ashiro, Third Division captain of Kaiju No. 8, crouched with her cannon beside the white tiger Bakko, stitched in greys and whites on black satin. The reverse wears the division crest alone, so one jacket serves both the bold and the quiet fan.
Best for: Kaiju No. 8 fans and collectors of anime sukajan

A reversible Kaiju No. 8 souvenir jacket by Psycho Nation Underground: Mina Ashiro, captain of the Third Division, embroidered across black satin with her white tiger Bakko, and the division crest on the reverse. Tags still attached, size 46.
The Piece
The back leads. Mina Ashiro stands with her long black hair loose and her heavy cannon braced at the hip, while Bakko, the great white tiger at her side, stares out in blue-eyed calm, every stripe built up in grey and white thread. Above them spreads a winged emblem; beside them the title runs vertically with KAIJU No. EIGHT in small capitals, and a shield-shaped crest sits low on the left.
The body is glossy black satin, the raglan sleeves a pale champagne gold, each crossed by a black band lettered KAIJU No. EIGHT. At the front, the maker's logo sits at the left chest and the title at the right; the collar, cuffs and hem are ribbed in black and cream stripes.
Reverse it and the jacket goes quiet: plain black with a large embroidered Third Division crest across the back, in olive and cream.
Kaiju No. 8, Naoya Matsumoto's manga of monster-fighting soldiers, became a worldwide hit and an anime in 2024. Psycho Nation Underground turns such worlds into embroidered outerwear in the souvenir jacket tradition.
