To establish that a Big Fancy House belongs to a family that is both traditionally Japanese and exceedingly wealthy, one can show many aspects of the home that seem extravagant. There's the big yard, the high fence, the sheer size of it. But for something that just screams "Rich Japanese Family" you need The Thing That Goes Doink. This is a traditional water feature that is found in the yards of Japanese homes, properly called a shishi-odoshi or "deer scare"/"deer-chaser". It has a bamboo cup on a fulcrum that slowly fills with falling water. When it fills, it tips over and empties; when it flips back upright, its hollow back end hits a stone underneath it and makes a distinctive hollow-log "doink" sound. With a simple two-second shot of this device doing its thing, it is established without a doubt that this Big Fancy House is a place of wealthnote they require constantly running water to operate, which means either an absurd utilities bill or, especially in works set pre-industrialization, high value land containing a river or stream and traditionnote They date back several centuries, to a time when wild deer actually were a problem that needed to be dealt with in a way that didn't involve wasteful and labor-intensive mass slaughter. If the doinker happens to be in a Western home, you can bet that they're a New-Age Retro Hippie or at the very least An Extremely Wealthy Non-Asian Person who recently converted to Zen Buddhism and insists that it "balances the home's chi" or whatever.note Never mind that wild deer actually ARE a problem that needs to be dealt with in much of North America. Not to mention the not-always-sober hunters they attract. Don't confuse the sound of The Thing That Goes Doink with that of the tsuzumi, a drumlike instrument used in Kabuki theatre which can be heard in a number of anime. The two sound very alike, but the shishi-odoshi is usually shown when it makes its noise. Also, don't confuse it with anything going Boink, the machine that goes 'ping!', the machine that goes 'ding!', or Things That Go "Bump" in the Night. The Thing That Goes Doink is often used in the Aspect Montage. In addition to indicating a moneyed and traditional household, The Thing That Goes Doink is sometimes used to signal an imminent Hot Springs Episode - a proper Japanese onsen will often sell itself on a "traditional" image, and a shishi-odoshi is part of that, especially what with water logically being rather available at a hot spring. Thanks to the internet, you do not have to be rich or Asian to enjoy the sound of these. Hear it here for 3 hours. |

In Kyou Kara Ore wa!! Riko's house has one as show of wealth (the role gets even lampshaded by a visitor). Mitsuhashi has the habit to trick people into getting doinked in the head, but failed with the son of the above-mentioned visitor... Who got doinked in the chin as he bragged that nobody would fall for that. | |

Soun has one in Ranma ½. It's not used to show opulence, but more that Soun has a rather traditional house/dojo set up. It was sometimes used to show time had passed. The sight gag of it 'doinking' being used to show time had passed was used in the anime, even when the action was at the Tendos. The Kuno mansion has at least one of them, if not several. Sasuke Sarugakure has to drink from them. The Daimonji school of Martial Arts Tea Ceremony also has one in the anime. | |

Bleach. Anime episodes involving the Kuchiki house tend to include a water feature to emphasise how ridiculously wealthy Byakuya is. Kirinji's healing pool includes a water feature so ridiculously large and convoluted, it effectively creates a waterfall into the pool. The noise it makes is ridiculously loud, as a very annoyed Ichigo discovers. |

Naruto. Every episode involving a flashback from Sasuke, or the Hyuga household. In "Shippuden", there's one at the Nara household, as well. Which is confusing since the family that breeds deer has a device that scares deer away. Not to mention almost half of the filler stories. |

There are a couple of these in Magnum, P.I., appropriately enough since there are a lot of Japanese people in Hawaii. They are found as part of museum grounds or parks, as well as private homes.

Touya Akira's large, traditional house in Hikaru no Go, usually heard (and sometimes seen) when Touya's large, traditional father is given screentime. The sound of water pouring from the thing, followed by the doink, nicely resembles the rustle of a hand in a bowl of Go stones, followed by the 'pok' of a stone hitting the board. | |

Lupin III: Goemon Ishikawa's Spray of Blood: There is one at the scene where the powerful and rich Inaniwa clan confronts Goemon; the samurai warns them if they attempt to move against him, he will kill them all. They foolishly charge as the shishi-odoshi empties and sounds. By the time it fills from the rain and empties to sound again, Goemon has disarmed or killed the entire gang, save the leader's son. | |

Pokémon There is one in the Bug castle in Pokémon Conquest. And it causes balls to fall on the Zen garden, which you can throw at the enemies to damage them. Stantler's Japanese name is Odoshishi, which is derived from shishi-odoshi. Rather then being scared off, the deer does the scaring, and its appearance (its antlers are shaped to look like huge glaring eyes) and the moves it learns shows. |

In Animal Crossing, you can get a "deer scare" as a piece of furniture. It makes the little doink sound, and is seen in a few different layouts in the residents' houses. Goes with the stone lanterns and mossy rocks of the "Zen Garden" ensemble. | |

Things That Go Doink are used as levers and platforms to solve puzzles at various times in Ōkami, to make use of the Water Spout power. In the English version (at least), Issun doesn't know what to call them, either. He clearly likes them though, as evidenced by the page quote. He refers to them as "plonks" at multiple points. The catch? You're two inches tall, and the things that go doink are now bridges. Genuinely enormous ones also appear in several other areas of the game, serving as switches to open doors. (Though in their case, it's more of a BOOM than a doink.) |

The Mendou family from Urusei Yatsura are quite possibly the richest people in the world; and they prove this by having multiple shishi-odoshi around various parts of their town-sized palace-and-villa-filled fortress. When Kuruma is training Ataru in episode 9, a drunk Tengu lies passed out underneath a Thing That Goes Doink, getting repeatedly doinked in the head by it. It's not just drunk - she tied it up there as punishment for sticking her with Ataru as her mate! |

One of these show up in at least one of the later episodes of YuYu Hakusho at Genkai's house-temple-thing. It's probably to show wealth, as her property is revealed in the last episode to be immense. Yomi also has one of those at the house where he meets with Yusuke. |
