If you like Hello Kitty, you probably know that there are a lot of Hello Kitty items sold only in Japan... but even more interesting, there are items sold only in specific regions! So, if you're a traveler and a collector, you will soon get used to look for items specific to the area visited, because Hello Kitty is often adapted to the local customs, legends or mascots... And so, the local culture is effectively conveyed through these unique items...

Here is a Hello Kitty from Kochi, telling the local story of the Harimaya-bashi...
