Nankan Town character, Nankan Toppamaru. Inspired by a samurai who protects the town of the checkpoint and gives people courage and happiness by overcoming every difficulty. He holds the local specialty Nankan somen in his hand and also comes with Nankan-age. He works hard to promote Nankan Town by appearing on television and at events. Apparently, touching the heart on his belly brings good things?
