I think that "Totoro" is a Japanese cartoon or character that
hides in the forest or something like that.

 Anyone else like to clarify?

girls i babysit for.....they rented it from blockbuster. what they are
exactly i don't know...the pictures are good though. totoro is the biggest
one and is seen with an umbrella alot. in the story, only children can see
them.....and he is kinda like an imaginary friend. he doesn't speak
either. that's all i really remember!!

Hi joan, I guess Totoro hasn't reached Ohio yet? Well, Totoro is a very
popular furry thing that has a movie out called, "My Neighbor Totoro." It
was a big hit in Japan where it was created. It is a cartoon of high
quality like Fantasia and 101 Dalmations. In the movie it is cerrtain
creatures that only children can see. The movie has subtle humor for all
ages but is tamer than Disney. I recommend the movie. I heard Disney might
promote it more in the states someday. Miyazaki is the head creator of it
all like Disney was. So now you know who the cool furry one is? No, not
until you've seen the movie. hee hee Jon Melusky

Hi Jon and rest of group... no, Totoro hasn't reached my area of Ohio
yet... I'm sure I will "discover" him/her/it sometime soon.  It's
inevitable with four kids under the age of 9...  I'll keep my eyes out for
him... perhaps I won't be able to see him?  After all I'm supposed to be
an adult!  
Anyhow, thanks for the info...
