On my way Coming from university on my hectic first day, i went into a shop to buy a drink. Surprisingly my eye caught the famous Japanese (Pocky) bread coated candy stick's.
In Europe the name has changed to (Mikado), God knows why they changed it?
Anyway... going back to the main topic, when i was young i was no different than any other kid who loves sweets, but there was something about the way that (pocky) was being advertised that drove me crazy!!! The cartoons, and the simple idea make it very cool for kids.
Also there was a myth going around in high school saying " pocky is love ", that means if you give a pocky stick to a girl she will love you, it was convincing at the time but not any more hahah. I used to try to draw the cartoons that they used when i was young, and I still do :)
