HEARTIMALS™
ハート どーも ( Heart Domo )
Domo ( どーも くん Dōmo-kun ) is the official mascot of Japan’s public broadcaster NHK, appearing in several 30-second stop-motion interstitial sketches shown as station identification during shows.

Domo-kun first appeared in short stop-motion sketches on December 22, 1998 to mark the 10th anniversary of NHK’s satellite broadcasting. The name “Domo” was acquired during the second episode of his show, in which a TV announcer said “dōmo, konnichiwa” ( どーも、こんにちは ), which is a greeting that can be translated as “Well, hello there!”, but which can also be interpreted as “Hello, Domo”, and thus is a convenient pun ( dajare ). The kun suffix on “Domo-kun”, the name used to describe the character in the Japanese versions, is a Japanese honorific often used with young males.

Tsuneo Gōda directs Domo episodes using stop motion animation. Gōda says that, by using this process, one can “create a work filled with feeling”.

Domo, the main character, is a brown, furry and oviparous monster with a large, sawtoothed mouth that is locked wide open. His favorite food is nikujaga, a Japanese meat and potato stew, and he strongly detests apples for an unknown genetic reason… https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domo_(NHK)
