Avis-kun and Bibi
The Japanese yellowjacket is found throughout the country, but is particularly common in Kyushu, where they grow big enough to make the local name, "suzumebachi" (sparrow-bee"), roughly accurate in terms of size. Avis-kun has been a popular character in Fukuoka since the team joined the league in 1996, and a few years later he found a girlfriend named Bibi ("bee-bee") to share duties on the Fukuoka sidelines.
