Hello Domo Kun

Domo Kun is the mascot of Japan’s NHK television station, appearing in several 30 second stop-motion sketches shown as station identification during shows, AND he’s absolutely 100% made of AWESOME.

“DOMO” means thank you in Japanese and the suffix “KUN” is used for addressing young men (like Mr. Miyagi used to called his student Daniel San).

I recognized Domo Kun when I saw him the other day at Target. It looks like they’ve “Hired” him as their Halloween mascot.

This is the video that Target has made with Domo.

Here are some of the original shorts that were made in Japan
