Meet Kabaya King!
🎨Designed by: Ikumi Nakamura and Mai Mattori

An eel mascot going through a bit of an existential crisis. Previously employed to promote unagi bowls, but he doesn’t want to do this anymore due to the endangerment of Japanese eels, we love a sustainable king!
He now passionately advocates for respecting all the living creatures that we eat and conservation in general.
All of his favourite things begin with the letter ‘U’, maybe linked to the fact that during summer in Japan, some people like to eat food that begins with ‘u’ in the belief that it helps with the heat.
Developer notes:
Kabaya King is one of my favourite mascot designs in the game, visually. He's cute in some regards but his abdomen is horrifying.
