Question

The mascot for Tokyo 2020 Olympics is}

• A. Cobot
• B. Doll
• C. Miraitowa
• D. Someity

Hint:

To remember: \textbf{Miraitowa} (Olympics) sounds like "miracle" + "eternal" – for the main Games. \textbf{Someity} (Paralympics) sounds like "so mighty" – for the Paralympics. Both mascots are futuristic, checkered-pattern characters inspired by Japanese anime culture.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

Concept: Olympic mascots are characters, usually animals or human figures, that represent the culture and spirit of the host city. The Tokyo 2020 Olympics had two separate mascots: one for the Olympics and one for the Paralympics. Step 1:Identifying the Tokyo 2020 Olympic mascot.}
The Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games (held in 2021 due to COVID-19 delay) introduced:

• Miraitowa – The official mascot for the Olympics
• Someity – The official mascot for the Paralympics

The name "Miraitowa" is derived from the Japanese words "mirai" (future) and "towa" (eternity), symbolizing eternal hope for a bright future.
Step 2:Evaluating each option.}

• Cobot: This is not a Tokyo 2020 mascot. "Cobot" refers to collaborative robots used in industry.
• Doll: Too generic; not the official name of any Olympic mascot.
• Miraitowa: Correct – the official Olympic mascot for Tokyo 2020.
• Someity: This is the Paralympic mascot, not the Olympic mascot.

Step 3:Conclusion.}
Since the question specifically asks for the Olympics mascot (not Paralympics), the correct answer is Miraitowa, option (C).
