What anime character have appear at Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade?

Pikachu, and if you count him, Sonic. Edit: Basically, no anime character appear at all during the Macy's Thanksgiving parades (possibly since Thanksgiving is a bias, all-American holiday). Pikachu and Sonic in actually are mainly video game characters who gained their fame in America through television. Sonic gained his TV fame from AoStH and SatAM. Pokemon, despite being an anime, became a massive phenomena to fans everywhere. It's sad really, how largely known characters like Goku (DB), Naruto Uzumaki, or Astro Boy (Tezuka anime version) wouldn't get their own parade floats. Anime and manga phenomena just tends to focus on story plot exposition and merchandise. No public appearances or direct pop culture references like characters in America.
