We only see Nyango Star. He is a tasty apple with the soul of a jazzy cat. He usually only has one elbow to bend, and some clips show him almost never standing standing straight up. Nyango Star sees through his eyes, so he can look straight down at something right in front of him.
Ah yes, Nyango Star, the apple-cat mascot for Japan's Aomori prefecture. He/she/it is also in a metal band called Charametal Charamel along with other local mascots. It's absolutely ridiculous, you should check it out for shits and giggles. 👍
Love me some Nyango Star. They're fantastic and have done some batshit covers of Slayer, Dragonforce, some Gene Hoglan stuff, and a swath of Japanese rock and metal bands. Yoshiki of X Japan is one of his heros/idols and Nyango actually got to play a couple of X Japan songs for him on a Japanese morning show: ruclips.net/video/kC-BUCGMYtI/видео.htmlsi=4GyofrFdhBbheqN0
I, also, avoided this vid for the longest time. After I did watch it, I had to know more. The name of the character is Nyango Star and it is a zombie apple cat. Haha.
In Japan, Ichigara such as Nyango Star, are not given person status, but given a status of "non-non-personhood". If given the opportunity, Nyango Star was an honor to perform, as The Apanman March is beloved across the globe, and was born in Japan. Nyango Star himself really did just put the record on and play with something he was listening to to honor Japan as it welcomed him.
Yeah that guy is called Nyango Star, he is an "apple cat", an apple possessed by the spirit of a dead cat. Cute mascots like that are very popular in Japan, it's worth looking him up and seeing what he's about, but it's basically to promote local commerce and regional pride. These sorts of characters are called "yuru-chara."
Bigboy Sukhm Nyango Star, the name of the character, is male. The drummer in the costume is a woman named Nao Kawakita. She's the drummer of Maximum the Hormone, a Japanese metal band.
Nyango Star x Kaparu "Mission Impossible". Nyango Star has photos with the male technician seen. At some point, the two were the same size. Maybe it has to do with hitting the stage.
@the6ig6adwolf Ichigara are not costumes. Nyango Star plays the drum kits of the best drummers in the world. Of course Nyango Star loves Maximum The Hormone.
2:22 gets me every time. So aggressively in the pocket, and then those dotted notes on the bass drum. The jaunty little bop in the background, too.
Mascots in Japan are no gimmick. They are part of culture and big business.
Yes. Seen that before. But, watching it with you gave me a big 'ol smile on a day I needed it. Thanks.
Great to have you back reacting to vids man 🥁
You do understand you'll have to get yourself a suit like that and see if it's actually that hard, right? Good to see you back here regularly man!
His arms were rather restricted in that costume, so it would take some practice to get it down clean wearing the suit.
🤔

@Virvum_Juggernaut
Nyango Star is a soft-headed fellow, and he is mostly empty inside.
A kinda similar one to check out - "This Drummer Is At The Wrong Gig"
Thats the best.
It's always the lady in the back trying to get their attention in the last 30 seconds that fully sends me over the edge.
lol me too. She's not just part of the background :-=}}.
It's such a silly video, but it makes me smile every time haha.
Man, Igenuinely get filled with so much joy when I get notifications for this channel.
I hope you know we love you.
Damn, haven't seen that in forever. Gave me a good laugh XD

@@Arcterion the amphibian bass player is a beast.

So, literally the first drummer that left you speechless.

Hahahaha I love that you reacted to this. Legendary clip. There's a whole documentary about this guy.
Her name is Nao Kawakita of the band Maximum the Hormone
Has that been confirmed now? I've only heard this as a rumor.
It's just a rumor, someone so Nyango play with Maximum The Hormone so they made that assumption and put it on Wikipedia.
Glad to see you back dude!, i unsuscribed months ago since you weren't uploading often, but definitely smashed the subscribe button.
Thanks for coming back!
Absolute classic

Nyango Star is an ambassador for the region. It is known for its apples, and it had at least one cat, once.
I love seing you smile and laugh :) Keep it up, man
You finally got it. This is why. It's crazy
Yayyyy! So glad you're still doing reactions. Can you PLEASE do one for 66Samus playing Zeppelin at Drumeo? 🙏
Nyango Star videos are a genre in itself.
Your reaction was amazing.
Glad you enjoyed
Definitely want to second that you should check out the video titled, "This Drummer Is At The Wrong Gig"!

Hell yeah
that video never fails to bring a smile to my face
#hailjellyroll
Has anyone ever seen Nyango and Dainishi in the same room? ruclips.net/video/S4NliciaXHw/видео.html
Blast it! Nice shirt, by the way.
Legends!
Cat!
These kind of videos are what the internet was intended for
Jellybean breakdown

Would have loved to have seen your reaction while in a mascot suit.
Damn, good idea haha

In the band she's sometimes singing simultaneously while playing drums :)
Holy fucking shit. I've seen the video a bunch of times and love Maximum the Hormone but never knew that!
It's never been confirmed, the only reason people think it's her because they saw Nyango jamming with MTH and then someone put it on Wikipedia.

There is a whole band of this
He must have practiced religiously in that costume to pull it off when suffering such detrimental restriction to his arms.
nice panerai
Rich Kids on LSD..... awesome 🎉
