	I wonder if there are any other places but Japan where people like cute characters as much as Japanese people. I am not that much into character goods, except that I love Rilakkuma, but I think they are all so kawaii! Even Ultraman can be so cute when he turns to be a little soft toy! I happened to find this character street when I dropped at Rilakkuma store. Tokyo Character Street is located in the basement of Tokyo station where you can shop following character toys. -NHK characters, as represented by Domo-kun. -Hello Kitty shop -Snoopy shop -Rascal (I loved this anime so much when I was a kid! I miss it!!) -Ghibli characters, as represented by Ponyo or Totoro. -Fuji TV characters -TV Tokyo characters, as represented by Keroro Gunso. -TV Asahi characters, as represented by Doraemon. -Nihon TV characters -Jump shop with characters such as One Piece or Reborn. -Ultraman shop …and so on. So many cute character toy shops gathered at one location in Tokyo, which was just like another KIDDY LAND to me.

But I never expected Rascal shop. It’s an old anime. Are you familiar with Rascal?

When I was a kid, I had many kind of animals; bird, rabbit, hamster, dog…It’s not too much to say that I grew up with animals. They were always around me since I was very little. Now I can feel these great anime programs might have influenced that, as I really liked watching “Rascal” and “Flanders no inu (dog)” far more than girly anime such as Candy Candy.

Are they familiar to you, too? I heard many Japanese anime can be watched overseas. Well…I am totally off the track! :p If you find characters of your taste, Tokyo Character Street is another option!
