Halloween is Rachel and my favorite time of year. When we were at Target recently, we decided to check out the Halloween section. To our pleasant surprise…Domo had taken over!!!
There are lots of awesome Domo-Kun stuff all over Target that would be awesome to steal have! For pictures of Domo at Target, check out The Anime Blog’s Halloween Domo Kun Gallery!
The cool thing about Domo’s appearance at Target is that they’re acknowledging his Japanese roots:
Domo’s World Screamiere – Domo first made the scene in Japan, where his TV-fueled imagination led him into tricky situations. Now he’s arrive at Target with an exclusive short episode and tons of fright-night fun.
There’s also a special original Domo short that was created specifically for Target.

I love anime. Specifically, series involving any of the following things: weird fantasy elements, super-powers, robots, aliens, wicked humor, crazy villains, horror, ninjas and samurai. I guess that means I like a lot of anime. I am pretty particular about the quality of animation and voice acting. If the character designs and animation quality aren't of über-quality, I quickly loose interest.The first anime-related series I ever watched was Battle of the Planets - otherwise known as Gatachman. The first true theatrical anime feature film I saw was Akira. My first exposure to manga was later in life when I read Osamu Tezuka's Astro Boy.There are so many incredible elements of Japanese culture. Some of the most exciting to me are the style of design and storytelling. I'm a web designer & illustrator, and I find myself looking to Japanese design for inspiration all the time.Anime blogging has taught me even more about Japanese culture and anime than I ever expected, and I continue to learn more every week. In fact, I'd love to travel to Japan. Rachel and I hope to visit sometime within the next few years.
My boyfriend and I were at Target last weekend and caught the Domo display (and bought candy too). However, I did not see the pinata. I love it.
I went to Target as soon as I found out about Domo being the Halloween mascot. I was late and most of the Domo stuff was already gone.
