Looking for a Japanese GIF

Trying to find an animated gif I once saw. It was on a Japanese website - possibly linked from Metafilter - that was some sort of meme back in the day. Maybe in the past 2-3 years. Possibly a site about cat helmets/headdresses.
It was a transparent gif featuring a line drawn cartoon. It was a beige colour and featured a potato, or potato shaped thing running down the street towards the viewer, cars passed at one point, and it "spoke" as Japanese (Chinese?) symbols appeared as if in a speech bubble. It lasted maybe 15 seconds and seemed to have a storyline, and it had an intoxicatingly happy vibe about it.
If anyone knows what I am talking about, do reply. Extra points for anyone that just posts the damn thing in the thread as their answer.

Best answer: Is this it? The filename "nonamenoname.gif" is what it was called when I found it last April.

Response by poster: That's it, thanks! The one I saw was transparent and looked much better but I'll try and track it down using the filename.
