Its the mascot for Japan's NHK tv station. Its full name is Dōmo-kun and has been in several 30 second sketches for station identification during shows.

I didn't, I already knew what Domo-kun was. So Wiki and me were close on what it said in the opening, big deal.

Actually, Nickelodeon picked up the rights for Domo-kun sometime ago. I don't know about regular Nick, but the Nick Toons station actually shows english versions of the shorts occasionally. Saw one sometime ago...Domo was getting taken advantage of by some cute little fox. That's probably why the merchandise is out now. ^^;

Yup, Domo-kun is starting to be everywhere. I have a reversible Domo-kun hat and a Domo-kun calender. He reminds me of what Diglet would look like if it came out of the ground, XD.

The first time I saw/heard anything about Domokun was when I was browsing around Nintendo of Japan's website, and low and behold I found this weird square thing with big teeth in some sort of game. I thought it was hilarious and he instantly became a favorite buddy icon of mine. My missionary buddy explained to me what he was. I loved it. This was all way before he was popular for killing kittens or Powerpuff Girls on the internet. I got a plush of Domokun from my sister on Christmas :-D
......hmmm....I need to get that Japanese Gameboy Advance game with Domokun......

Check out my sig! And I've even seen Domo-kun merch out in the middle of NE. You can find stuff like Domo-kun calanders pretty easily.

Domo was on a Walgreens (or something like it) ad right before Christmas. I was like "MOM, MOM, LOOK IT'S DOMO ON LIKE, A LOCAL AD." And she just goes "what is that?" and I couldn't really answer. I didn't know where he came from, I just liked the little Japanese square thing. Now I know.

I bought some Domo-kun figurines from Target. They are win.

Postby **Tsukuyomi** » Tue Dec 30, 2008 1:29 pm

I want a Domo-Kun plushy,but a life sized one 8D

That would be.. the bomb u_u/

Postby **ilikegir33** » Tue Dec 30, 2008 3:50 pm

Got a blue Domo-kun at Hot Topic.

Domo-kun is AWESOME!

Postby **Debitt** » Tue Dec 30, 2008 4:44 pm

Domo-kun apparently turned 10 years old some time earlier this month. >> I had no idea the thing's been around so long.

I kind of want something like a Domo-kun coin bank. Stick coins into its mouth. |D

I own a Domo shot glass. I laughed so hard when I saw it that I had to buy it. I figure enough Jager bombs and the Domo would get scary as heck.

mwahaa found a pic of it.

One of the girls in my dorm is obsessed with Domo. Apparently, she grew up watching Japanese TV. She has a calendar, plushy, etc. When I went to Target one time, I saw Domo in Halloween clothing, no less!

Hm... Thanks for all the replies!

I thought he was a brownie monster at first. I saw him on TV not to long ago. He still looks like a brownie to me (and makes me hungry XD)

I'm not sure what Domo is, all I know is to watch out for your kittens when he's around!

Me, too, a bit.

I learned of it years ago from another forum when the forum admin posted a bunch of clips. He liked it. I don't entirely get it.
