Sanmachi Executive Committee character Sanmaclause is an old man in a fisherman’s outfit, wearing red coveralls, work gloves, and rubber boots, with his beard and hat as distinguishing features. He is the official promotion character for “Santa Comes to Town! Iwate★Ofunato★Operation,” held in Ofunato City in December. He shares information on Twitter by adding “sanma” or “clause” to the ends of his words, appears at festivals and elsewhere, and promotes the events.
