It is crazy how many manga styled mascots are on everything in Japan.  Medi-Kun looks like he needs to keep his hands to himself!  I do believe that every town has a mascot.  They're always super cute, young and fun!  It would be fun to see them battle.  Hmmmm...another comic strip idea perhaps?  I'd like to see a grumpy old cursing mascot.  Wait, don't tell me there's already one.  If you know of a crazy mascot, let me know!  They do crack me up!
