Santa participated in the Santa Parade Tokyo as an ambassador and gave an interview to the world's largest news agency, Associated Press.
Santa Claus is a culture that originally came to Japan from Western countries, but has become an indispensable part of Christmas celebrations for open-minded Japanese people.
The Santa Parade is a charity event that supports children battling illnesses in Japan and children living in poverty overseas.
