Mamegoma (まめゴマ) is a series of seal characters created by the Japanese company San-X. It was created at 2005. Their name comes from the prefix mame (or 'bean' in english) referring to them as being a miniture form of something joined with the suffix goma which comes from gomafuazarashi
(or 'sesame seed-mottled seal' in literal English) which is the
Japanese name for the spotted seal. Joined together this would make
their name mean: Miniture Spotted Seal.

Mamegoma are available in a variety of different colors including,
white, blue, pink and black. The seals are often depicted as being small
enough (12 cm, weighing around 200 g) to live in a common goldfish
bowl, usually with a few ice cubes to keep the water nice and cool. They
are also shown in advertisements and merchandise in bath tubs and
relaxing on a wheel in a hamster cage among other activities.

There is different characters within the mamegoma range, the most common
being the white seal, named siro-goma after it's appearance. The
other seals are the pink seal, or sakura-goma (meaning cherry blossom
seal), and the blue seal named ama-goma (meaning rain seal).
Mamegoma also has a show called Kupu Mamegoma.

The mamegoma characters are available as plush toys from UFO catcher machines. There are also many different products with the Mamegoma seals as a decoration, like stationery, calendars etc.
