Taiwan's not "Kumamon" but "If you look at" Kumamo "game to die" and walking is very fun



One body of Yuru characters representative of Japan born in Kumamoto prefecture "KumamonI tried using "Kumamon (Kumamono)" in the meaning like "powder" or "bakumon" instead of ... .... There are Kumamon in Taiwan, but since the appearance frequency of so many other bears saying "too much to appear too much" can be said, if you play "the game to die if you see it" for the general character of a bear, it will be a great deal of excitement

Hello,Takuya SAITO who did a round around the world by bicycle @ Charridermanis. We visited Taiwan as 2015 and 2016. People in Taiwan love Kuma characters. When I walked through the city I saw a character using a bear jumping into my eyes in everywhere.

◆ "Die if you see Kumamon"
At the end of February 2016, this tweet became a hot topic.

Taking this into account, I tried a trip to Kumamoto and it got a lot of tension. You can read about it in the following article.

In Kumamoto's journey "Doing a game to die if you see Kumamon" results in such a result - GIGAZINE


The reaction of this article was good, and as mentioned above, Taiwan was awesome as it was about Taiwan, so we decided to deal with "Taiwan Bearing circumstances" this time.

◆ Taiwanese and Bear
In the mountains in the center of TaiwanTaiwan Asian black bearIt is inhabited. This bear with a V-shaped spot on the chest is an animal that is representative of Taiwan, so whatever you do in Taiwan, you are saying "Mascot is a bear". As a result, if you walk in the streets, bear characters will come out without interruption.

I visited Taiwan in 2015 and wrote such an article as well.
