All About We Love Funassyi
An unofficial blog in English about Funassyi, the equally unofficial mascot of Funabashi, Chiba. While not affiliated with Funassyi in any way, if you want to keep up with the jet-setting anthropomorphic pear, this is the place to go. The site is maintained by Makiko Itoh, who has been writing about Japanese food and culture for more than a decade. A die-hard Funassyi fan, she believes Funassyi is poised to “go global.”
