The Program's Maneki-neko Character as the Motif
TBS's popular program "Wednesday Downtown" features celebrities and famous personalities presenting "theories" they believe in, examined through VTRs and studio member discussions. The Maneki-neko, a program character that also appears in the studio set, has been decided for release as a BE@RBRICK. Each black cat features polka dots on its parts, with the program logo shining on its chest.
Incidentally, it is said that the benefits gained from a Maneki-neko vary by color: white brings "good fortune and luck," while black signifies "warding off evil and ensuring safety." Given the program's many stunts and challenges, many might find this explanation quite fitting. May you all have a healthy and enjoyable year in 2026.
