Yes, I was one of the crazy ones who braved the crowds to visit Pom Pom Purin Cafe in Harajuku, Tokyo.
Pom Pom Purin, the yellow golden retriever dog character introduced by Sanrio in 1996 while might not be as famous as its counterparts like Hello Kitty and Melody overseas, Pom Pom Purin still has a pretty strong following back home in Japan.
I hope you fine
