Domo?

What the heck is it? I saw it here on a banner and then I walked into a 7-11 and they were everywhere.

Is it a kid's show?

I googled it. Apparently it's the mascot for a Japanese TV station.

Why in the world 7-11 using it for a promotion?

According to Wikipedia:

"Domo (?????, D?mo-kun?) is the mascot of Japan's NHK television station, appearing in several 30 second stop-motion sketches shown as station identification during shows.

In 2006 Nickelodeon announced that it was to develop 26 two-minute shorts of Domo-kun for broadcast in the United States.[1][2] In December 2007 ICv2 announced that Nickelodeon would begin airing the shorts in early 2008.[3]

Target used the character as the theme of its 2008 Halloween promotions.[4] This included a number of Halloween-themed products, such as candy and toys. An original animation was created for Target, available on its website.

7-Eleven stores used the character in a promotion beginning October 1, 2009."
