What is a "Nameneko" anyway?
Nameneko is a cat character that caused a huge movement in the 1980s.
The gap between the cute kitten and the biker gang style outfit caught the eye, and in one year the character sold 2.6 billion yen in merchandise and graced the cover of Oricon magazine, making it a social phenomenon that no one knows about.
In particular, 12 million car license-like bromide cards were sold at the time, and such characteristic words as "valid until death" also became popular.
Although the product's rollout ended a few years after its introduction, it was a legendary boom of the 80s that is still talked about today.

The "Nameneko boom" came back with a 2015 commercial! Even after the boom died down, small-scale Nameneko products were sold every few years, but it was a "Y!mobile" commercial in 2015 that brought Nameneko back into the limelight.
