Usagi is *real*

Post by digulla »

Hi everyone.

What can I say? I returned from work and there he was: Usagi. Sitting next to my computer and staring at me...

Don't take me wrong; he's real, soft white fur, long ears (not floppy, mind) and everything. I can even touch him!

Dunno where he left his daisho, though and I also expected him to be a bit taller. Also, he doesn't talk to me. Maybe by Japanese is not good enough for him or my Web Design insulted him...

But he also didn't seem to mind that I made a photo of him and uploaded it to the Dojo! Click and see for yourself :wink:

Looks more like Jotaro to me, with that round nose and all!

My son has a lil white rabbit doll (stuffed animals just appear when you have a small kid somehow) We had some scrap material around and I tied up it's ears in an Usagi-style top knot. Always intended to sew a lil kimono & hakama for the lil' guy....

Heh, you're right. My mom, who did it for me just didn't know that Jotaro existed.

Which makes me wonder about the obvious: There is a UY statue and a Action Figure but why no doll/puppet? Wouldn't Young Usagi be cute enough?
