Japan earned a massive 2-1 win over Colombia on Tuesday to move to the top of Group H and greatly increase its chances of advancing to the World Cup knockout stage.

The result was a shock to many. That list likely includes Ippei-kun, Japan's frog mascot, who seemed to be truly dreading the match.

You see, Ippei-kun is no ordinary mascot. Unlike his or her North American mascot counterparts, the frog is a nuanced individual whose tweets from Russia seem to communicate that it's grappling with existential anxiety.

Or maybe Google Translate is just really bad at decoding Japanese mascot-speak.

Ippei-kun sent this tweet early Tuesday morning:

According to Google, the text translates to:

Oh, anxiety, anxiety and anxiety. There is only a sigh ... Anxiety, anxiety, anxiety, anxiety, and anxiety

OK ...

Let's try another. This one was presumably sent while en route to the stadium:

This translates to:

Also moved. Movement was too long and a headache started. Alive I can return home

Hmm.

This one was tweeted shortly before kickoff:

Move, move, and also move.
What is alive?
Is it alive?

Is this frog OK?

This story has a happy ending, however. Ippei-kun was in a much better place emotionally after the final whistle in Japan's win:

I did! Human beings in Japan! ! I got in and won! Thank you. Everyone
