The half-moon of the mark represents the earth, and its starting point represents the location in Asia.

A gothic typeface with a strong core and rounded corners expresses softness and generosity, sharing pain with people around the world and solving problems. I imagine upbringing.

Kansai University of International Studies original character "MAPS II"

M・Mission
A・Action
P・Passion
S・Smile

In 2014, we solicited a wide range of designs for the university's common mascot character, MAPS II.Currently, this mascot character is used on the university's website, various SNS, goods, and is active in various events both inside and outside the university.

Our students live a carefree university life, and we strive to be “a person who works with a sense of mission (Mission), who has the ability to take action (Action), who has passion (Passion), and who never forgets to smile (Smile).” It is an image character that expresses the desire to spread the wings of the world lightly while nurturing a sense of education.

The design uses the imaginary creature "Pegasus" as a motif, with the message that we want you to fly toward your dreams with free ideas without being bound by anything.Rather than a cute and soft image, it is a design that is conscious of dynamism and strength.
