Japanese mascots - Sato-chan

By Muza-chan on Aug 26, 2009 | In Japan travel | 5 feedbacks »

The two cute elephants that I often saw in front of the pharmacies in Japan are the Sato Pharmaceutical’s mascots. The orange one is a male and is called Sato-chan, and the pink one is a female, Satoko-chan.

Some of the pharmacy owners dress them up in different outfits…

Sato-chan and Satoko-chan sometimes even travel overseas. Here they are in Canada:

There are so likable that I saw small figures with them in the Nakano shops. I wonder now, why I didn’t bought one? #-o
