For those who are curious about the various characters in the Pompompurin universe, Sanrio has set up a site introducing them all. The collective name for them is Teampurin. As for Pompompurin himself, he is a golden retriever that Sanrio introduced in 1996. He is fairly popular, to the point that he was in second place in Japanās Sanrio popularity poll in 2022. He lost to Cinnamoroll, who is the reigning champion.
