she's a cat character who represents a small town whose main source of economy is a giant apple farm/farms. the whole purpose of nyango star is to make kids want to eat more apples. it benefits the local economy and keeps the kids healthy i guess.

He is the inspirations of all the kids there. That town will soon have a whole new generation of healthy apple-eating metal drummers.

When Nyango Star is in town drumming, it is not for his own gain. It is to help support and uplift a town after suffering tragedy. The entirety of these "yuru-chara" mascots work this way, or something close to it.

"an apple a day makes you drum like me" would be a better ad-campaign tbh

To be honest, as hilarious as it might look, this is impressive on at least 2 levels. 1st: The speed. This alone is already impressive to most of us, BUT there's one thing that makes it even more impressive, and that's 2nd: The costume! It's hot inside these costumes, yes, but I'm not talking about that. What makes it truly impressive is how obstructed his sight must be under there.

[@SilverionX]

The most interesting fact about these mascots is, apparently, when they are in the costume these people ARE the mascot. Some western news company was interviewing a representative of the district Nyango Star was from. They asked him who was in the costume and he got visibly uncomfortable and waved off the question/played dumb. I think they said it's bad luck to acknowledge there's a human in the costume or something.

[@scout360pyroz]

That is fairly true across multiple nations when it comes to mascots and playing characters in front of kids in particular. It's almost sacred to keep character. Since the time of Disneyland it became a deeply rooted tradition to never compromise on that if possible as other groups imitated Disney's business model. And that model definitely reached Japan.

10:41 "That looks like a crowd of adults...." Don't be surprised by this. It's Japan.

[@rsmith02]

If you look at the signs in the back one was a town mascot competition/festival and others are just local festivals, so those wouldn't just be kid audiences.

I went down a rabbit hole with these mascots, turns out there are kind of a lot of them, and many of them represent their city or municipality in one way or another. It's weird but also super sweet.

[@Special_K_42069]

case in point: look up Soft Kuriinu

[@restojon1]

I think that I've seen them (on video, not irl) on the Japanese transport systems. Sometimes they will "theme" a train or tram after their Mascot or in other cases, have one mascot per carriage to represent the different stops on the train line.

Nyango is indeed an apple. "Nyango Star" is probably a pun on Ringo Starr, since "Ringo" in japanese means apple, and since it's an apple cat, he added the "Nyan" there, as it's the onomatopeia for cats meowing in Japan.

[@buffedpizzacrust3104]

And Ringo is the Beatles' drummer, which makes sense
