Bera-chan is Bunshindo Bookstore’s official character, a male baby lion. Based in Takasaki City, Gunma Prefecture, he is active at events around the prefecture! He is often mistaken for a squirrel, but he is a fine lion cub. He works hard every day to make more people aware of Bunshindo Bookstore. His hobbies are reading, listening to music, and collecting trading cards. His favorite food is Gunma’s specialty, konnyaku. His dream for the future is to become the “king of beasts”!
