But this is Japan we talkin about. The mascots are more common here than any nations on earth. So probably it's light and breathable. Some sweat is still there, maybe. But maybe not that much.
@@DBT1007 its more that the expo itself was... quite warm when crowded. Doesn't matter how good the suit is, if you are moving this much (as the video shown) in that space with such a suit, its gonna be boiling inside
Didn't inow Japan Mascot suits now used EOD suit tech. Yes, EOD suits include as part of the gear that goes with the wearer inside a small size AC unit to keep the internal temp just BARELY within tolerable range, especially if one had to do sone EOD in the Middle East to disarm an IED where causing it to explode wasn't feasible (Infrastructure or Urban zone) or outright not remotely sane (Aka, the AlQaeda decided to use a USSR 500Kg bomb as the IED)
@@andrehashimoto8056internal active cooling is really rare, I have yet to come across any real uses of those. The most common ones are cooling plates such as QORE ICEPLATE Curve with chilled water allowing the person inside to retain their body temps in that boiling heat. Works fine for a couple hours but still gets really really toasty.
I hope they have some form of ventilation in there. That big head can fit a couple of small fans - the only issue would be making them super quiet. Otherwise, ice packs, maybe.
These ones are big enough to have fans inside, also ice packs. With those two things they are almost bearable. I’ve worn one outside for 8 hours in Texas heat, and it was literal torture. I lost pounds from sweat
Being in a mascot suit is actually really hard work - it's hot and stuffy in there and movement is difficult. It's a job that takes a lot of dedication, and they're doing a great job - it's hard to communicate so much character with such a limited range of motion!
It’s also telling that they are in the spirit of smol Ame, while battling heat fatigue & carrying the weight of the mascot costume overall. Whoever is inside that suit really loved Ame.
@@Nozo1234 huh. I haven't thought about that. hollywood made it seems like being a mascot is like the bottom tier lowest paying job to go for if you don't have a job
Dang it! Recent job change from Ame now gave a high probability that she is now the SMOL AME mascot in conventions and you can't change my mind anymore now 😭😂
Gura saying: "And I don't know whose bright idea it was to give Smol Ame a gun..." Has lived in my head for a year now alongside the video of the incident. Always a treat when Smol Ame appears, whoever is in there does fantastic work.
We need a Smol Ame/Dino Gura tag team to hit the next expo That way they've both got someone to run interference for them if need be, and their combined cuteness may change the course of human history
I love that they had to assign her an escort wearing a neon clothing, "We know you can't see, so just follow me, I'll be the one with the peach neon jacket around my waste."
Ok lets be fr, whoever is actually taking the role of being in these suits are truly the GOATS, knowing how big and hot it could be in there, yet they still manage to bring so much energy and personality into them o7
Since i saw all the clips of smol ame antics last year, I have been looking forward to seeing what she gets up to this year. Bless whomever had the idea to make smol ame a full mascot
i remember in holofes 3 how much ame became viral, everyone around the world was bluffed at how much beautiful her singing became with puririn and that she stole the show from gura by a mile, but in the shadow others were speaking about the true stealer of the show, smol ame
I love it when the mascots were walking past all normal-like and then Smol Ame comes in and just skips, bounce and waves. It's like they told whoever is in the costume to do whatever they want lol.
Having worn a mascot suit at a job I had, I can confirm for all who were saying that these things are no joke. I only had to fill in for the guy normally doing it, so it was three trips of 10 minutes with 15 minute breaks in between. At first I thought this was a great exaggeration; HR going crazy with employee protection or something like that, but soon after, having stopped to greet a group of kids who were conveniently positioned under a patch of sun, I realised it wasn't. The suit is heavy and violently hot, it doesn't align with your balance, the head despite having a huge mesh and gaps between it and the main body feels like a full on gasmask. I never moved faster than a relaxed stroll, except for a small stretch to the office, which I would usually jog just to get the head off ASAP. The total assignment took about an hour, however I was ready to turn in for the day immediately afterwards XD Anyhow, I imagine with this being Japan at least some of the issues have been alleviated to a degree, but even still, huge respect to the costume person. Still, I'd maybe consider doing this full time with jumping and running if my salary was about 4 times higher than it was during my first experience 😂
@@EmoElChemo one of my housemates has something similar to it, so I was already aware it's really hot in there. I feel like my biggest problem would likely be wether or not it's a heavy suit 😅
I like to imagine that the person in there was given no direction on how to portray smol Ame, but still captures her fun vibe and chaotic energy flawlessly.
I like to think that they have had the same person be Smol Ame for the last 3 years and they got soooo good at it. It's cute, funny and authentic to how I imagine real Smol Ame to act :D
the people in the costumes are doing a stellar job out there being their silly selves, but smol ame always kicks it out of the park whenever they show up, hope the people in the mascots get a raise it makes me hope that for 6th fes they end up bringing more mascots out into the real world, i imagine stuff like guyRyS and onigirya would be nice and easy to get set up, altho my personal hope would be seeing listener-kun going around, even tho the costume would be really top-heavy
Hmm, I recently learned that in Japan, there are air-conditioned suits for laborers who work in hot conditions. It has little fans under the cloth to circulate cool air. I hope these mascots have something similar.
Who could be inside the Smol Ame suit? Well, the actual real Smol Ame, of course. What we see as a costume is actually a highly advanced mecha suit, designed especially for, and by, Smol Ame.
AMMMEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Ame Gosling right here !
(Hi Tenchou 🧡)
Birb
Same
The Dark Lord herself.
Number 1 Ame Gosling has arrived. :D
Whoever's in there definitely does cardio regularly lol. The suit's probably boiling them alive too

Nah she’s definitely got one concealed

"How an Ame works"
_hint: look up "how a banana/cat works"_
i refuse to belive that its anyone but ame in there
Inside Smol Ame is an even smoller Smol Ame
Smol ame to be precise, like operating an Eva lol
@@epiccarrot88It’s Smol Ames all the way down, a fractal of tiny gremlin detectives.
that would actually be a 200 iq move
She is definitely ame, came here from a different timeline where ame isn't ame, but smol instead
Smol Ame is like one of those animals that look really cute and huggable but are actually the most dangerous ww
if dangerous, why cute?
@@yair_santosyou can be both at the same time
2 years ago, Sana wants to flip her over like a turtle
so.... a fluffy wild brown bear~?
@DianaProudmoore I want to pet a brown bear but I'm afraid it might tear me apart
With how miserable the heat in those costumes must be, I have absolute respect for the actor in that thing having so much fun.
What I want to know is: How the heck are they able to see anything?
@@RelativelyBest One part of the costume actually translucent somewhat usually.

@@RelativelyBestthe mouth is see through, but they can see very little, that’s why they each have a personal guide
Smol AME will never be not funny and kawaii.
Uooooh
😭😭😭
Whether it's normal smol Ame, buff smol Ame, bee smol Ame, or any other variation of smol Ame, this will never be false.
holocure :P
For the love of God, please just say cute.
I love the sound of each step, it's like they put small wooden plates under the soles to make this really distinct noise while she's walking.
If i had to guess. It's probably plywood to help spread out the weight of the costume
I like the clickety clack sound
What makes this extra adorable is everyone calling out to her "Ame-chan" lol. Smol Ame always delivers when it comes to chaos and cuteness
Ame may not speak Japanese as much, but she has still reached a chunk of the Japanese audience anyway. That’s strong!
If so dangerous, why friend shaped?
Friend is an upside-down paper bag.😅
@@ryokayin wouldn't that be the same shape? (Also: Yes, to your question. )
Don't let the cute appearance fool you, give her the means and she will ground pound your mom.
To lure you in. An Ame-flytrap if you will
@@ryokayin
So, Mumei's?
The person in the costume is having the time of their lives. They are unbothered and just vibing every living moment

@@Nozo1234 huh. I haven't thought about that. hollywood made it seems like being a mascot is like the bottom tier lowest paying job to go for if you don't have a job
Smol Ame: You're lucky that I can't run as fast nor can I use ground pound in my irl form, staff chan.
Ame really was busy, being inside this suit and the having to perform on stage afterwards
Nah, she just did the show, then time-traveled back to do the mascot costume as well.
And ground pounding mums
"GODDAMMIT i made the suit too small!"
*4 foot tall person walks by*
".....youll do"
1:15 that little chase xD
Dang it! Recent job change from Ame now gave a high probability that she is now the SMOL AME mascot in conventions and you can't change my mind anymore now 😭😂
Despite being so angy she’s so huggable
“I’m out of breath.”
Staff: “I’m actually a mom.”
Smol Ame:
The reason Ame hasn't streamed for a while is cuz she had to do her yearly training arc to walk around the expo as smol Ame
It truly is an enigma how simultaneously adorable and scary Smol Ame is
Whoever's under that thing has gremling energy trained to legendary status
So good. So smol. So AMEzing..
See what you did there
INAFF
Smol Ame is ridiculously precious and adorable. :D
A bunch of these chasing me with pitchforks in a dark alley is a new unlocked nightmare.
I really like the slow turn and aggressively wave
“Smol Ame is so cute”
Meanwhile Massive Smol Ame:
God I love the sound of the footsteps lol
that was absolutely adorable, hilarious, heartwarming, and day-making at the same time
Was not expecting hard boots. The sound they make as she walks is quite calming.
Are we sure it's not the real smol Ame? Just another Tuesday of smol Ame looking for moms to ground pound xD
Everyday, I thank walfington for birthing this cute little shit.
Do not be fooled, Smol Ame has been observed achieving speed of as much as 343m/s.
Man i sure hope Walfie is getting so much benefits for providing Hololive/Cover such an iconic mascot.
Whoever was in there definitely enjoys their job
I appreciate the person in the costume, they give Smol Ame so much personality.
Whilst she may look adorable be careful Smol Ame has incredible strength and can crush anything without even trying.
Gura saying: "And I don't know whose bright idea it was to give Smol Ame a gun..." Has lived in my head for a year now alongside the video of the incident. Always a treat when Smol Ame appears, whoever is in there does fantastic work.
I swear Watson is attempting to fly given how much she flaps her arms
I love (smol) Ame 💛💛💛
The person inside costume doing fantastic job at showing how adorable she is. I bet they having fun there 😁
After reading Pygmalion i can never look at mascot costumes the same lol
We need a Smol Ame/Dino Gura tag team to hit the next expo

She's out again spreading cuteness and chaos

Thank you Walfie
How can someone with 3 lines as a face be so goddamn expressive?
The fully loaded Sopmod Black II In my bag fully equipped with a Holographic Sight, Ergonomic Grip, Pbs-1 Suppressor and a blue laser.
I wonder if they always get the same person to do the smol ame mascot. If it isn't props to the individual employees who always match the vibes.
Reminds me of that art featuring Small Ame being guided by Staff san.
i remember in holofes 3 how much ame became viral, everyone around the world was bluffed at how much beautiful her singing became with puririn and that she stole the show from gura by a mile, but in the shadow others were speaking about the true stealer of the show, smol ame
Reminds me of when FGO would bring out the Gudako/fem protag mascot. The mf jump kicked another mascot once
Everyone being like: so cute
But ngl every time she turned at her name being called was ominous
The menace is back LMAO
Staffsan: "Come on Ame we gotta move."
Smol Ame: "Can't, too tired."
Staffsan: "Did I mention I'm a mother?"
Smol Ame: 'ZOOM!'
the sound of her footsteps is so cute!!!!
I love it when the mascots were walking past all normal-like and then Smol Ame comes in and just skips, bounce and waves. It's like they told whoever is in the costume to do whatever they want lol.
they really studied the smol ame energy.
because it's really ame
If the person in that suit wasn't Ame, they get turned into Ame when they put it on.
Permanently.
The clomping is so loud. It's hilarious.

Smol Ame behind you, whispering:
"Its time for a ground pound"
smol ame was having the time of their lives
I like to believe at least once, big ame put on the costume and walked around in i5
the boots clicking when she skips and the skipping itself is so freaking cute
Must be a frequent Ame viewer cuz the acting is just so convincing, like they’re gonna ground pound anyone at anytime.
I love how Smol Ame's shenanigans have become a treasured tradition of the Expos.
Smol Ame, never stop being you, bud.
I feel like doing stuff like this would be a great job for me with my hyperactivity 😂
Fr tho, it looks like so much fun and the costumes are adorable
until you learn that you have to be inside the costume and that its very hot (just by the looks of it they look really hot inside)

The little tippy tappy of her shoes is cute
Smol Ame killing it again this year also loved the Holocure music in the background
The little tippy taps are so adorable!!
Ahh yes my yearly dose of Smol Ame
There's a grown ass man in there.
the waddling and the tippy taps are funny
Your chances of being murdered by Smol Ame are low, but never zero
Hmm, I recently learned that in Japan, there are air-conditioned suits for laborers who work in hot conditions. It has little fans under the cloth to circulate cool air. I hope these mascots have something similar.
I like how loud the footsteps are.
I loved last year when she became a huge meme, and my YT timeline had Smol Ame everywhere. What a great time to be a Hololive fan
Smol ame is so much more expressive this year. Did the person train a lot or was the suit modified?
Whoever is in that mascot deserve a bonus and should here them in every hololive event.
So many moms were utterly obliterated that day.
For all we know, that could really Ame inside the Ame suit. Like an Ame-ception.
If Smol Ame was the mascot for a sports team, she'd be just as, if not more chaotic than Gritty. It would fit the lore.
An small person inside an smol Ame.
every year the cuteness goes with smol ame. she will become unstoppable
I wouldn't be surprised if real Ame was in there!
She's just like Gudako from FGO conventions haha
The staff will be safe as long as she isn't mother,i hope so
Whoever us within that costume, be it Ame or a member or staff, they need a raise!
She can jump n run now,maybe next expo she can ground pound 😂
Smol Ame continues being a MENACE every year lol 🤣
change my mind
smoll ame is chaotic at best
Who could be inside the Smol Ame suit? Well, the actual real Smol Ame, of course. What we see as a costume is actually a highly advanced mecha suit, designed especially for, and by, Smol Ame.
Now imagine if in the next holofes they put a speaker in those, and Smol Ame just randomly says Ame things in her voice.
