"Konnichiwa! Let us introduce TenTen-chan, Team Japan Roller Derby Mascot. TenTen-chan is a long hair white cat that is ready to fight for Japan using the strength of Tengu👺, the Tengu has been a part of Japanese Shinto beliefs. Tengu have been seen as a power spirit or Yokai, even a harbinger of war. We want to bring all our power and spirit with us to the World Cup."
