Ōta City mascot, Ōtan. Based on the “O” of Ōta City, his green body expresses the land and abundant nature. The four circles on his head represent harvests in yellow, the sky in blue, the sun in orange, and a clear stream in light blue, while also representing the four cities and towns merged together. He appears at many events to promote “Ōta City full of smiles and energy” and Ōta yakisoba nationwide!
