sweetwater Posted July 30, 2019 Posted July 30, 2019 I heard that Atsumacho (the place Yuzu visited for 24-hour-TV this year) has a mascot so I did a little research and made some interesting discoveries. The green one is Atsumaru kun from Atsumacho. He grows haskap on his head and carries a surfboard on his back. Seems like Atsuma is a surf spot. The bear is Yabeebeya (comes from Yabai bear) who is also from Hokkaido. He is almost naked but very gracious. Then while searching for more info about them, I found these mysterious beings The white one is Zooshiihokkii from Hokkaido, who seems to be a mutant of sushi and he/she can take out a grain of rice from his/her chest and give it to his/her friend. The mushroomy one is Unamo from Shizuoka, who seems to be derived from eels This one is Manbekun from Oshamanbe, Hokkaido, who is a mixture of a crab, scallop, and iris. Hokkaido is a land of yabai mascots...

Sorry but this character is a kind of creepy it's because I've just watched the movie "Alien" this Sunday...

sweetwater Posted November 5, 2019 Posted November 5, 2019 It seems that the name of the Montreal2020's mascot is AXEL and he/she can skate

sweetwater Posted July 6, 2020 Posted July 6, 2020 I've been hearing this in my head all day... Translation of the lyrics Spoiler It's important to do something good for your health But running is tiring Working out is too hard for those who are lacking exercise In a forbidding mountain, You may face unexpected dangers Reflexology mat, after all, hurts You can't make it a habit just by doing it stoically Be healthy enjoying what you like Kiwi, kiwi, let's eat kiwi Sweet, ripe, nutritious, and age-licious* Kiwi, kiwi, kiwi is the best Be healthy enjoying what you like Be healthy enjoying what you like *age-licious is a compound word of ageru (lift) and delicious that means uplifting and delicious.
