The Giabbit family.

The Giabbits (ジャビット, Jyabitto) are a group of rabbits who represent the Yomiuri Giants. There's two twin adult male Giabbits named Giabyi (team number 333, wears a hat) and Giabba (team number 555), an adult female Giabbit named Vicky, and two twin children Giabbits (boy and girl respectively) named Tsuppy (wears shorts) and Chappy (wears a skirt and headband on her left ear). Their features are based on the Yomiuri Giants logo.

A 6th mascot, Grandpa Giabbit, was announced on 5 February 2014, as to celebrate the team's 80th anniversary. His official appearance was on 24 March 2014.

Giabyi also has 2 unnamed cousins that are rarely directly involved with the main family due to them mainly being on the Giants' 2nd team.

Trivia[]

  • An NES ROM hack of Super Mario Bros. called Giabbit Hunting was created in 2001, where the player hunts down the Giabbits with Mario in a Hanshin Tigers uniform. This is an obvious reference to the rivalry between the Hanshin Tigers and Yomiuri Giants.
  • A very ribald parody of Giabbit made a cameo appearance in the anime Panty and Stocking with Garterbelt.
  • Like Buffalo Bell, Giabbit made a cameo appearance (as a zombie) in an episode of the anime Space Dandy.
  • Grandpa Giabbit is one of the few mascots that can "speak", as seen in this video during his debut.[1]
