Akinomaki 41,183 Posted December 10, 2023 (edited) old thread: topic/31993-rikishi-based-mascots/ The sumo variety of Tsuiho-kun - Eviction pal, mascot of the Saitama pref. boryoku(dan)-tsuiho - violence (groups) (= yakuza) eviction / drug abuse prevention centre - like the NSK a public interest corporation, and like the NSK always concerned with yakuza eviction, but as their sole purpose. The mascot was created 30 years ago and so far used as illustration, now a former policeman created figures. http://www.tokyo-np.co.jp/article/295211 Edited December 10, 2023 by Akinomaki 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
