What are Logica Friends?

Logica Friends is the official mascot character of "Logica Style," which established "Programming Education Day" based on its achievements in providing programming education to more than 1 million children nationwide. He is highly popular among elementary school students and their parents, and when he appeared at the Japan Small and Medium Business Awards 2022 ceremony, he received rave reviews from celebrities Saeko and Kika Fujiwara, who said, "He's so cute! When they appeared at the Japan Small and Medium Business Awards 2022 ceremony, celebrities Saeko and Kika Fujiwara praised them highly, saying, "They're so cute!


The main characters are "Rojika-kun" and "Jessica-chan," both based on the motif of deer, and there are more than 15 other characters and series. Many children have seen them at least once if they have had any experience with programming, as they support children's programming learning through various media such as teaching material illustrations, cartoons, and animations.


In order to revitalize programming education in Japan, which is becoming a backward IT country, the Logica Method is focusing on creating a channel for children to develop an interest in programming through the use of cute characters. We are now looking for licensees to expand awareness of Logica Friends and promote programming education.


Inquiries from companies interested in manufacturing and selling products using LogicaFriends (licensees) are accepted at the following page.
