  Bonsai goes hip and ironic in urban Japan -- Middle East Times
Instead of being constrained by the formal rules of bonsai, Mambonsai is free in form and ironic in intent.
His 2003 book on Mambonsai has captions in nine languages and he and his plants were even featured as part of a 2002 foreign ministry video sent to 110 countries to promote Japan.
But however successful Mambonsai has been in showing bonsai to a new generation, traditionalists believe that he is deviating from an age-old practice.

 Zine & Comics review | Mark Pawson | Variant 15
Look closely amongst the shrubbery and moss in The Mambonsai 2 and you'll notice the little people, they're not pixies or elves, but grumpy old men, reluctant hikers, skinny-dippers and skiving workmen.
The book is supplemented with beautiful diagrams, a size chart comparing Mambonsai with the Tokyo tower and Mt Everest and there's even a Mambonsai theme song.
Thankfully The Mambonsai 2 is bilingual, with good translations, although later on in the book Yamamoto warns us "In case you know little about Japanese culture, please consult a professional before trying to decipher this high-level, intellectual and sophisticated chart." A truly unique and loopy, book.

Other booths sold a few Japanese goods (that weren't manga and anime) or held games.
The Mambonsai booth was run by a gentleman who sold bonsai trees (and a few other plants).
I don’t know if he did this for AN or does it in general, but many of his miniature plants had a small toy figure, so one might find a small version of Son Goku resting by a bonsai tree.
