GUYS I'VE FOUND NEVER BEFORE SEEN/POORLY DOCUMENTED TOKKARI SEALS FROM AN OLD 2005 BLOG POST IM FREAKING THE FUCK OUT!!! 😭❤️
Some more images of gugu:
This is the most important seal in this post, this is gugu, the important thing about him is that THIS IS KAZUKIS DAD! I can see the resemblance NGL, and since he's kazukis dad that also means he's HANAJIROS HUSBAND!
This here is tsubasa, I like his tounge drool it's really funny, hes kinda chill lowkey I respect that
This is minira, she's supposed to be a baby ringed seal iirc but she looks more like a Baikal with the eyes, but that's just me 🤷 regardless she's adorable and I love her
This is non or non-chan, interestingly he appears to be a bearded seal, as of 2026 tokkari only houses harbour seals and ringed seals, and in 2024 we had the brief arrival of pukumaru the ribbon seal before his passing (RIP) so this is very interesting 🤔
This is komusubi a baby ringed seal, interestingly komusubi was a very popular seal at the time, possibly paving the way for ponsuke and yo chan, he reminds me of a mixture between mashiro and katsunori a lot - komusubi also seemed to have interest in theatre at a young age, playing a reindeer at a Christmas event only a few months prior
This is Mon or Mon-chan, not to be confused with non-chan, she's a baby ringed seal who is in an enclosure VERY SIMILAR to where daikichimaru and agu are kept, as well as what mashi was in back when the center just rescued him, the little mark on her forehead reminds me of tsuki
The seal in the back is gomahu, a female bearded seal, her personality reminds me a lot of yo chan, interestingly this blog states that she lives in the same pen as another bearded seal, so perhaps gomahu and non were roomates? Or maybe they're more bearded seals tokkari used to have that we still don't know about 🤔
Overall I recommend you guys look at this blog it's really interesting and gives you a look into tokkari center at the time,they've even got a video of komusubi on there
