Tora-san is the most famous Japanese movie charactor. Played by an actor ATSUMI Kiyoshi, this "Tora-san" series has 48 sets which is a world Guinness Record.
All the Japanese knows him well so we missed him passed away in 1996. However, everytime we visit here, we can meet him in front of the station.
