Mame Shiba is a series of characters that are both beans and dogs at the same time. Here’s a video of one of them.

According to Sofia of From Japan With Love, the dog says “Did you know, in France the Japanese word “tanpopo” (in English it is the word for the flower dandelion) means ‘peeing your pants?’”

You can view some other Mame Shiba videos, including additional translations from Sofia, at her blog post about Mame Shiba, or check out the official site at Mame-Shiba.jp (though some of the site content doesn’t seem to load for me). Sofia is also selling Mame Shiba character goods on her store From Japan With Love.
