So, if you've been active or lurking here for the last month or two you've probably seen me talk about this odd pet. After retiring my 20th anniversary Digimon, I'm finally ready to run it! From the information I could find about this, it seems like a very unusual virtual pet. It's based on the franchise GeGeGe no Kitaro and you take care of one of the yokai from the series. The creature's name is Medama Oyaji, but for this log I'm going to be calling him just Oyaji. He's an old man! (At least that's my understanding of the character. I've never watched the series, lol) The one I own is well-loved, but it's still a nice looking device regardless. I love how it looks like an eyeball - if only it was rubbery or squishy! It will also roll away from you (it's very round), so putting it in some kind of case is recommended.

It doesn't seem to have a special start up screen, there's no bouncing egg or waiting period. As soon as I put in the batteries a giant pupil was staring at me. Pressing the button on the back of the device gives you a full body shot of Oyaji. From my knowledge right now, it doesn't seem to do anything else.

Tapping on the device is how you interact with Oyaji. I've already seen him do a few things, The first one I got was of him tripping and falling which made him cry. Poor little guy!

It also seems like the device responds to movement in general, there were a few times he started doing something when I was moving him around and wasn't tapping on the device. There's also no clock feature or stats, so I'm curious how you take care of him. I'll keep everyone posted!
