As previously mentioned, the Japanese are really into mascots which, as recent research has shown, are self-representational (Okida & Takemoto, 2017), being used to represent regions of Japan, companies, universities, and in kindergarten name tags, individual Japanese. Why are the Japanese so keen on representing themselves with mascots? How do mascots represent the self?
McDermott (1996) noted that palaeolithic "Venus" figuries often have diminutive legs and enlarged torsos. McDermott very cleverly theorised that these ancient statuettes may be representing a first person view of the self, such as that drawn by Ernst Mach (1896, top left). McDermott surmised that palaeolithic sculptors may have chosen a first person perspective on self due to the fact that they lacked mirrors. Another possibly explanation is provided by Rochat (2008, 2009) who argues that the intra-psychic other many theorists deem prerequisite to our ability to cognise self -- such as "the generalised other" of Mead (1934), or the "impartial spectator" of Adam Smith (1770) - is represented by this first-person view of self. This would explain why Adam Smith may also have refered to the "impartial spectator" as "the invisible hand."
In other words we may see our third person images, such as our mirror image as a person, from the perspective of the "headless" (Harding, 1986) spindly-legged first person self-image. If this is true, as Rochat argues, then the first person self is an important part of our psychology and it may be for this reason that palaeolithic peoples chose to represent it in their figurines.
Further, if the Rochat hypothesis is correct, one would expect there to be contemporary representations of fist-person self-images. It seems to me that the Japanese style mascots or yurukyara, share the "lozenge shaped" diminutive limbs of Venus figurines (see the three central mascots upon which I have superimposed red arrows) and may be popular self-representational images since they represent the first-person self. If at the same time these images are those of infra-psychic others, it could be argued, following Freud (1961), that these mascots represent spirits, deities, Gods or, in this particular case Japanese kami. Indeed, traditional representations of kami such as the seven gods of happiness, and the gods of wind and thunder, often have enlarged torsos and diminutive limbs.

Beppe Grillo torna in teatro con Grillo VS Grillo, al Teatro degli Arcimboldi di Milano, il 26 maggio 2016.
Il Grillo Comico e il Grillo Politico: due entità incompatibili racchiuse in un unico corpo. Quando parla il comico, il politico s’incazza perché viene preso sul serio e perde i 25 milioni di voti di quelli che non hanno capito la battuta. Quando parla il politico, il comico s’incazza perché si domanda: ma dov’è la battuta?
Basta, quest'uomo non può più andare avanti così!
È necessario uno showdown finale. Su un palco teatrale i due Grilli si sdoppiano, l’uno diventa carne, l’altro ologramma (e viceversa) per confrontarsi, combattersi, raccontarsi, annullarsi, proiettarsi nel passato e nel futuro, nei ricordi e nelle ambizioni più vere. “Chi siamo, da dove veniamo, dove andiamo, perché parliamo al plurale?” Una lotta senza veli, senza esclusione di colpi e di verità Finché non ne rimarrà uno solo! (anche per non avere questioni sulla ripartizione dell’incasso).
Il suo blog è uno dei più letti in Italia Intestatario di un forum di discussione, dapprima è stato ispiratore di liste civiche che fanno riferimento al suo nome (tra queste, la lista Amici di Beppe Grillo, presentatasi in occasione delle elezioni regionali in Sicilia del 2008). Il 4 ottobre 2009 ha dato vita a un movimento politico, il Movimento 5 Stelle, con la collaborazione di Gianroberto Casaleggio. In un primo momento, Grillo si è dichiarato "capo politico, ma come garante", del nuovo movimento; successivamente, in vista delle elezioni europee del 2014, "capo politico e rappresentante". Alle elezioni politiche del 2013 è indicato ufficialmente come leader del Movimento 5 Stelle.
