Hello everyone. Today, I'd like to introduce a character that is very cute and has a very big body. I'm Boss from Kawaii Republic.

Hello everyone! A very big body? I wonder what it is...... rather, how big it is? I'm Saori from Kawaii Republic!

Among the characters we've introduced in the articles so far, this one might be the biggest......? I often see this character at a certain facility in Japan!
【Jinbe-San】 A cute whale with a big body and heart! Lots of cute plushies have been released! What kind of character is Jinbe-San?
What is Jinbe-San?
Jinbe-San is a character of a whale shark, created by San-X Co., Ltd. It was born in 2015 and many goods of Jinbe-San and his friends have been released.
Jinbe-San is a whale shark character with a very kind big heart in a body as big as the sea. When Jinbe-San swims in the sea, remoras, jellyfish, penguins, sharks, kelp, octopuses, and shellfish friends gather.
By the way, because it's a character created by San-X Co., Ltd., it may also be secretly collaborating with those characters born from San-X Co., Ltd......?

I see Jinbe-San's goods at character shops, but I think I often spot them in the gift shop section of aquariums.

Ahhhhhhhh!!! I do see them! Absolutely! While aquariums often have their own unique merchandise, they also have goods of characters who live in the water like seas or rivers!

Exactly. So if anyone reading this article has a chance to visit an aquarium in Japan, by all means, check the souvenir section to see if they have any Jinbe-San merchandise! Jinbe-San plushie goods often have a very good texture, they are fluffy, or have a nice moist touch, so I highly recommend them!

The merchandise is also incredibly large, isn't it!
