Gloomy Bear

Sorry I haven't updated in so long... I'm kind of a slacker...

I was at Villiage Vangaurd in Shimokitazawa the other day, and noticed a freakin hilarious animated character for sale.

His name is Gloomy Bear. Gloomy Bear is a large, two meter tall pink cuddly bear with huge claws and fangs that he uses to rip into kids, and other people who appear in his illustrations.

The guy who works on Gloomy Bear is named CHAX and I know nothing about him...

Dig around the sites and check out the animations with Gloomy Bear wreaking havoc on the people...

The word for the week is 'Yandeiru' 「病んでいる」　which I guess pretty much means... grieving... or suffering... it is how my friend described Gloomy Bear art when he first saw it.

Let me know what you think of this stuff.

Here are some gloomy goods...
and more!
