John Oliver covers Chiitan’s plight on ‘Last Week Tonight’, now has beef with the mascot

Chiitan, who we’ve covered before with jokes, now has beef with comedian John Oliver after his show ‘Last Week Tonight‘ did a feature on Chiitan’s issue with the city of Susaki.

The animosity began due to Oliver creating Chiijohn to keep Shinjo-kun company.

Chiitan wasn’t happy about ChiiJohn replacing it.

The beef is real and it’s spectacular.

I'm in a public beef with an unsanctioned Japanese otter. I needed this. https://t.co/z7Yd7izRxY
