Domo-Kun!
Some of you may be familiar with Domo-Kun and this all-important public service announcement. I never knew what his story was until I saw a post about it on Metafilter today.
It turns out that he is the mascot of a Japanese satellite channel and has been featured in a series of promotional animated spots which are bizarre and cute and entirely in Japanese. You don't really need to understand what they are saying in order to enjoy them. Or you just need to be a weirdo to enjoy them...I haven't decided.
I need to find a plush Domo-Kun doll, though. Oh yes, I must.
