[Miyagi Prefecture] Recommended as Sendai souvenirs! Get to know the charm of the local mascot Musubimaru!

Musubimaru is a local character representing Miyagi Prefecture.

Musubimaru is the current Sendai/Miyagi Tourism Campaign Promotion Council Secretariat and Sendai/Miyagi Tourism PR Section Manager, but what kind of character is he?

What is Musubimaru?

Musubimaru, as its name suggests, is a local character inspired by a rice ball.

Miyagi is known for its rice production. The cute rice ball made from delicious rice and the decoration of Date Masamune's helmet are perfect for the character that symbolizes Miyagi!

My hobbies are napping and visiting hot springs. Her laid-back hobbies are perfect for her laid-back appearance, and you'll be soothed by them!

Musubimaru is in high demand at events held all over the country. As his title suggests, he is responsible for promoting Miyagi Prefecture in various locations.

By the way, Musubimaru is a samurai, so going to an event is called a march. On days when we are not scheduled to go to the field, we welcome customers in the lobby on the first floor of the prefectural office. Musubimaru continues to promote Miyagi Prefecture even though he is still young, and I am worried that he is working too hard!

You could take more rest!

Let's collect Musubimaru goods!

Musubimaru is also very popular as a souvenir from Miyagi Prefecture.

There are many different types of goods, from standard stuffed animals and T-shirts to unusual goods such as tourist guides introduced by Musubimaru himself!
There are many types of straps available, so collecting them all will fuel your collector's spirit.

By the way, the Musubimaru stuffed animal appeared as an important key item in the anime "Wake up girls" set in Sendai.
