The rotund character from Studio Ghibli inspires us all with his adorable “Totorobics” workout.
Out of all the loveable characters created by animation powerhouse Studio Ghibli, it’s the large forest-dwelling grey-and-white Totoro from the film My Neighbour Totoro that continues to be one of the most beloved. Charming audiences with his cat-like face and plump white belly, Totoro has inspired a large number of unique creations, from striking watercolour prints and detailed papercut artworks to amazing artisan bread loaves. Now CL Terry, a talented Australian animator, is bringing the world a series of GIFs featuring the cute character, showing him working out and getting into shape in a number of adorable scenarios.
▼ Totoro can be seen jumping rope…
▼ …going for a brisk walk…
▼ …and even breaking into an adorable run.
The sweet character also reveals his remarkable flexibility while holding an impressive yoga pose.
His cute “Totorobics” workout is guaranteed to put a smile on anyone’s face!
If all aerobics instructors looked like this, we’d have no trouble going to the gym every day!
To see more of the animator’s cute works, including a juggling Totoro, be sure to stop by CL Terry’s website or follow her on Tumblr or Facebook. With the artist currently undertaking a challenge to create a new GIF every day for 100 days, there are sure to be plenty of cute daily updates!
