I can’t believe I actually looked for this -- sheesh!
My mind could not comprehend it last night ~ and still has trouble with it.
Does Not Compute.
I think it is something from childhood that he carries for luck or security or something in his backpack. He said on the Demi chat that it was an anime thing he used to like when he was younger.
He got it as a gift ~ I think in Seattle ~ I don’t know ~ I can’t wrap my mind around this David and performance David.
The actual difference now ~ is reaching further and further outside of my comprehension.
In the past it was more subtle ~ but as the stage presence intensifies ~ then that twitpic ~ my mind goes.. WHAT ?
I’ve gotten used to the paradox of grown man David and little boy David. I don’t even rationalize it anymore. It is what it is, and he’s the same person.
Love ’em both! 🙂
Oh… Tororo is very famous in Asia, I even have a Tororo-bus at home… and I love Miyazaki Hayao (the creator of Tororo) more than 20 years, his fans are all over Asia, and I believe most of them are 30-40s. His animation is an art, and what he would like to express in his animation, is deeper than a child could understand, and is for the adults who accompany his child to see the movie.
His “Nausicaä of The Valley Of The Wind” (1984) talks about environment before it became a trends today. Tororo is very adorable, but not his best at all.
oh.. i just found out is repeatedly type in Tororo (another famous Japan character) instead of Totoro.

Agree 100% Hard to look at it any other way. Seen many normal 20 sumpthins with a similar fondness for stuffed symbols. It’s not an obsesssion just a reminder of his happy childhood. Maybe it’s kind of like a blankie or similar item.
Not sure anyone else would agree but seems like most people have different facets that define them. After my ridiculus behavior at the VIP, I would be the last one to comment on anyone elses.
