>What's a dakimakura?
Dakimakura are a type of pillow from Japan, usually 150cm x 50cm. Dakimakura are also known as "hugging pillows". They usually have anime or video game characters printed on the cover.

You could also try some local bedroom store. But remember, the stuffing should be exactly 150cm x 50cm. If it's too big or too small the character on it won't look good.

>What can I do with a dakimakura?
You can hug it, cuddle and sleep with it or simply look at it.
