Hiya everyone! 💗💋🍓🌸Sweet*POP🌈🍭💀🌟 here! I thought it'd be nice for me to share this story of how I was able to refresh one of my childhood memories somewhere from last year or 2 years ago. As in how I discovered Japan's precious furry Sony mascot, Toro Inoue

When I was in middle school from 2003-2004, there was a show called Cinematech that was like a slideshow/segment showing video games(mostly openings for the games) even outside of North America like Europe and especially Japan, and it aired on the video game tv channel that I've always loved watching, G4tv.

On one of the episodes of Cinematech, this sweet, precious and cute Japan-exclusive PS2 treasure was shown to end that episode, which I only saw once. Since then I have kept this memory locked inside my mind. As years went by, I have once used internet to search for pictures and videos of that game, but....never any luck. I thought that I would at least treasure that memory.

But then in my adult years, I saw this white kawaii Japanese bobtail neko buddy everywhere in media relating to Sony Japan or video game cats, and felt like that I have seen this character before.

That's when I found out about his actual name Toro Inoue. And then I watched a video on YouTube showing the gameplay of "Toro to Kyuujitsu" that was so familiar from when I was watching my all-time favorite G4TV show Cinematech.

That was the moment when I realized that I have finally found the game I saw in that Cinematech episode. Plus....I have to admit that my only fault for never finding the game was because all this time, I've been typing "Taro's Day Off" because I could have sworn that was the title of the game, but then I've learned the truth that Toro to Kyuujitsu was really *Toro's Day Off*. I've been mistaking Toro as Taro for all these years.😅 Plus, I instantly remembered seeing a familiar old woman who was a host from the shrine in a cutscene because she was the last figure that I saw in the Cinematech ep (before I changed the channel).

Also after finding out the Japanese name of the game, I did a translation lookup for "kyuujitsu", and learned that it means "holiday", "day off". "Toro to Kyuujitsu" means "Toro on Holiday". So now I am very happy to have finally found this game. A childhood memory had been solved.😊

And I happen to love Toro Inoue, Sony's mascot in Japan very much now. I'm just so fond of him nya nya! 😺😸😻😽

Thank you for being a part of my life Toro... Sony Cat....I love you nya nya!🐾🐈💖🍣🎮
