History of Hotei San-Budai:
Budai Luohan, pronounced Hotei in Japanese, also known as the Laughing Buddha, is the person who might be the next Buddha after Gautama Buddha. He has become incorporated into Buddhist, Taoist and Shinto culture and is based on a Chinese monk.
We find these enigmatic sculptures from time and in Japan they are also often thought of as protective talismans.
