Youkai Watch is a good game but its not enough lived and popular to be am abassador of the olympics, should been Pokemon.
Plus, why Pre-Cure? is it that popular there? There are way more popular moe shows, is it because theres like 100 animes of Pre-Cure?
Hatsune Miku or Love Live Should been there, Miku being the giant figure she is she would fit perfectly.
And Love Live would be good to represent music and their style.
Come to think of it, would it not be a lot better to use anime and manga related to the Olympics as the mascot for their respective sports? Such as Ganba Fly High for gymnastics, Yawara for Judo, etc.
And Secret Olympics for the Olympic Village mascot.
On the one hand, it is nice seeing anime represent, on the other, the few medalists and Olympians who are fans or have a love crush with these characters have already moved on to pro-sport, or retired from the Olympics or pro-sport.
At least medalists can visit the venues for free.
I dont understand why Sin-chan get in there
