Super Gachapin!

Gachapin on the computerIf you’ve lived in Japan long enough, you will know Gachapin, the loveable green character from children’s television. Gachapin (along with his red buddy Mukku) is everywhere (billboards, commercials, cartoons, toys, t-shirts, mobile phone straps etc.)
If you’ve watched the TV shows, you’ll know Gacaphin can do just about anyting from martial arts, rock climbing and extreme sports. Definitely a character that teaches young kids, “be strong and brave, you can do it!”

I’d hate to be the guys in the costumes, must be hot and potentially very dangerous doing all those sports and stunts. Take a look at the videos and see for yourself.  More Gachapin here.

    Just wondering if anybody knows where you can get a gachapin costume from? My friend really likes him and I was hoping for Gachapin to make an appearance at her birthday party.

    I just wanted to point out that that ISNT the Gachapin Opening theme. Infact, its Kamen Rider Blade’s opening that’s been placed in instead.
