Hanging from a college student’s book bag. I asked if I could photograph the little creature with his mouth wide open. She told me it was Domo!
Domo?
So I looked up Domo and learned about him and realize I am really behind the times in not having met him before. He’s been around awhile.
And I just met him now. And a quote from Wikipedia “Domo’s favorite food is nikujaga, a Japanese meat and potato stew, and he has a strong dislike for apples because of an unexplained mystery in his DNA” You can check him out in stop animation features on Youtube, too.
And the urban dictionary says “Domo-kun is a small brown open-mouthed monster (hatched from an egg) who lives with a wise old rabbit underground and really, really likes TV. Domo-kun is the mascot of NHK’s BS2”
There are book bags and plush toys and I have never noticed him until a couple of weeks ago and that open mouth caught my eye.
I haven’t ever met him before either 🙂
I’m thinking I don’t want to me him…
That s a good domo – the panda suite is nice.
Well, that was quick, You’ve taken us from Pilgrim troll dolls to Domo in but a couple posts. Can’t wait to see where we’re going next. I sure hope you have a time machine. The Future beckons. 😉
I wonder who dreamed up yet another money making fad. Hmmmmmm lots of TV, no apples….sounds very unhealthy!
Don’t feel bad, I never heard of Domo either, but he’s kinda cute.
Obviously a younger generation thing….. but cute
Domo was very hot a few years back… but I only know about him because I work in retail, and so am somewhat “required” to become/stay aware of the various crazes and phases. 🙂
Haha i see Domo everywhere here
I’ve never met Domo.. he’s awfully cute, isn’t he?
sweet indeed!
