I am Hangyodon, and I will be honest — I am not always the most confident. I was born from a river in Tama City, and I came to live in the human world because I wanted to make friends. Things do not always go smoothly for me, and sometimes I feel a little embarrassed or left out. But I keep trying, because I believe kindness matters more than being cool. My friends tell me I am loyal and warm-hearted, and that means everything to me. I like quiet days, and I am always happy when someone notices me.
