Yaechika Station South Exit Shopping Street character Bocchi-kun. This character was born in April 2012 from a peanut field, a specialty of Yachimata City. The term “bocchi” refers to harvested peanuts dried and piled outdoors, which is how he got the name “Bocchi-kun.” He usually patrols the shopping street, has also been issued a special resident certificate by Yachimata City, and is active in promoting Yachimata City and the shopping street!
