REFILE - CORRECTING BYLINE Choko Oohira (R) teaches trainees in character mascots at the Choko Group mascot school in Tokyo, November 20, 2012. Oohira, a 20-year veteran of the mascot arts, founded the school - the only one of its kind in Japan and, quite possibly, the world - in 1985. Her goal: to help mascot wannabes perfect the art of moving and playing the characters. Students are taught everything from traditional dance, to help with actual dance routines as mascots, to different walking styles that illustrate different ages while wearing costumes.
