What is "Manbe-kun" ?


by Kazu

"Manbe-kun" is the local mascot character of Oshamanbe Town. The motif is crab but it seemed like a lobster. The character was waiting for the arrival of the Special Limited Express Train "Niseko Go" and the train manias in the train. 
The crab meat lunch box "Kanimeshi" made by "Kanaya" in Oshamanbe Town had to be reserved by phone call by the day before the arrival. It costs 1,200 Japanese Yen. The buyers should prepare the cash. Please do not expect the change.  
The lounge coach was at the tail of the train where the frames for taking memorial photos were put on the counter table facing the window. I gained a table before our arrival in Oshamanbe Town where many train manias were expected to rush into after buying the lunch boxes.
