Domo-kun is a small brown open-mouthed monster hatched from an egg who lives with a wise old rabbit underground. He really, really likes TV and also enjoys rocking out to Guitar Wolf.
Ta-chan.... Ta-chan is a weasel girl. She is seventeen years old. She moved near Usajii's cave this spring. She dreams to be a stylist or model in Tokyo. She always tries to get information from a mobile phone, TV, or magazine. She is overly friendly, but is lonley somehow. She always adds "chi" to the end of a conversation, but she doesn't know it. She doesn't like the country-side.
MAX and The guitar wolf... MAX is a popular four-woman Japanese pop band which of course stands for "Maximum Active Experience." Guitar Wolf is a frenetic Japanese garage rock band. The song that Domo-kun and Usajii are rocking out to in one of the earlier episodes is "Kaminari One."
Domo-kun is the mascot of NHK's BS2 (a satellite channel; he also appears on BS1). NHK has been producing a series of Domo-kun stop-motion vignettes that exude personal charm and warmth.
