Asymmetry of morale? In cartoon and cute obsessed Japan, the armed forces reach out to the people through Prince Pickles and his girlfriend Parsley-chan.
Japanese citizens have tended to be suspicious of the [Self Defence Forces], a fact that helps explain Pickles’ back story. A native of the peaceful Paprika Kingdom, he at first didn’t understand the need for his small country’s defense forces.

But also rather cute.
