C’mon Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Shibuya-ku, Tokyo; President: Daisuke Yamaguchi; hereinafter referred to as C’MON) is a T-Five Project Co., Ltd. (Head office: Nakano-ku, Tokyo; President: Juri Yamazaki; TEEFIVE) will announce a new short animation “Chikipu” and launch a disaster prevention entertainment project by both companies.

Project overview

In this project, disaster prevention education content using animation is distributed in conjunction with “TEEFIVE Co., Ltd.” which is known as a disaster prevention YouTube channel. We will convey disaster prevention knowledge, which tends to be difficult, in a friendly, fun, and memorable way.

Character

The three-legged baby monster “Chikipu”, its mysterious appearance, has a meaning as a “symbol of guidance” in Shinto since ancient times. The power of “Chikipu” is expressed in a trembling tail fin that reacts sensitively to even the slightest fluctuations in the ground, and plays a role in informing new human companions of danger.

Through such a unique form, the idea of “preserving life” is included. We aim to learn about natural disasters and develop “power to protect one’s life” through lovely appearance and story.

Character “Chikipu”

Background

Japan is one of the world’s most prominent earthquake-prone countries, but the current situation is that disaster prevention enlightenment is “hard” and has a strong impression of being “hard” and is not familiar to children and young people. The YouTube channel “TEEFIVE” is a popular disaster prevention media with more than 550,000 registrants, and in this project, by introducing a character with a high affinity with its audience, disaster prevention education will be sublimated into “everyday enjoyment”.

Comments from representatives of each company

(Representative Director of Tea Five Project Co., Ltd. Juri Yamazaki)

“Through the Chikipu, we want to learn from ‘learning disaster prevention’ to ‘enjoyment’. We hope that it will be an opportunity for children to adults to incorporate disaster prevention into everyday life beyond language and borders.”

(Daisuke Yamaguchi, Representative Director of C’mon Co., Ltd.)

“Chikipu” is not just a mascot, but a trigger for children to naturally learn disaster prevention actions. With the power of animation, we would like to expand the culture of protecting life and nurture the generation who will lead the future. ”
