Ragtag uniforms for ragtag event costing an arm and a leg, and maybe even both arms and legs.

Cool Japan ... ?

Very 80's. Token looks happy.

Now that you are reading the comments, can you remember the uniforms you just looked at in the picture?

Exactly.

Personally I don't like the uniforms, but at least they are not similar in any way to the esthetics that originated the "spawn from the abyss" mascot.

I am writing a comment to solicit more minus points.

The design is outstanding!

I didn't know this event was using volunteers. I wonder how many are actually employees at the sponsors being corralled into doing it. Or by community associations or local governments in that part of Osaka.

If any public spirited people are out there, there are more deserving uses of your time and energy than this.

I would have saved up any unsold local sports teams uniforms, Hanshin Tigers, Orix, Osaka Gamba etc. starting from the announcement of this event, the uniforms change every year or two and some replicas will end up unsold, but that's just me.

Do ripped jeans represent the tattered manufacturing sector?

And the one on the far left is going to get pretty warm come July.

-2 ( +4 / -6 )

Worst mascot ever.

They look very trampy.

Expo 2025 wastes resources such as workers or materials or huge taxes despite little expectation domestically and internationally, that's delaying reconstruction of Noto peninsula where has heavy damaged by quake hit about 4 months before.

Besides, methane from landfill and insufficient safety measures have caused even gus explosion already.

But, Japan's avaricious economy groups and far-right politicians still cling to holding self-satisfaction larger events while they ruin society and victimize citizen and decline country.

Look like rickshaw coolies out of 1900 Shanghai.

i feel sorry for the volunteers

What a ragtag rabble! And yes the token does look happy!
