/jp/ - Otaku Culture

It doesn't seem worth it to me, the texture isn't life-like at all.

how do you use those?

I'm not sure my dignity is quite worth the price of a body pillow.

I fear to think of the things youve done to that pillow

>>5384799

I don't have the pillow, just the case. I've actually been keeping it folded up in the box it came in and stuffed in a suitcase.

Hahah, you finally got your Bern pillow case. Is it double sided? Like is Bern's back visible on the other side?

>>5384816
I think I'd rather sleep with the case, than the body pillow

This came with a Dengeki G Festival Deluxe issue but I don't have the courage to take it out yet, I just hide it away. It stands out a bit too much and I live with my mother and stepdad (in britain). Maybe if I ever have a bunch of merchandise in my room I'll take it out and it won't stand out as much.

I don't have a proper pillow either, I used two memory foam pillows here.

>>5384839
How do your parents feel about this?

>>5384764
Dignity? I never had any to begin with.

>>5384826
There's Lambda.

>>5384826

No. This is DEEN's official release. Bern on one side, Lambda on the other.

Sold my dignity? Not quite. Some of us don't live life under the pretense of being a normalfag.

You know, it's not that difficult to suppress your power level.

>>5384764
First I have to sell my dignity for some figures before I work my way up to body pillows.

>>5384764
I want one, but they are way too overpriced... 90USD for something that takes about 20USD to produce. Even so, I'll definitely get atleast one soon. I keep spending my money on figures though.

I'd buy one IF I could find a decent hatsune miku one.

>>5384847
I just told you I hide it away, they haven't seen it. I'm not sure they'd care though, when my mother looked at my Kud figure (which is clearly nude, she even picked it up) she just said "that's cool"

>>5384849
I saw this thread, and knew you would be here.

>>5384855
That's what I did as well.

Though I'd suggest snapping up any dakimakura that you're interested in as they tend to go out of stock pretty fast.

>>5384862

You are a dirty, filthy, smelly weeaboo nigger.

>>5384859

Most I saw in White Canvas for Touhou characters were around 130USD. The Bern one came with a DVD that usually sells for 60USD, so I essentially only paid 40 for it.

and here is mine

>>5384879
SMELLY
DUMB
RIKA
SCRUM

>>5384879

Whole lotta Rika you got there.

Too bad there's next to no Bern merch aside from what I got. Not even any doujinshi...

Then again, I wouldn't know since it's all in Mandarake in order of artist/circle, not series...and I don't have the time to go through every fucking shelf to find Umineko stuff.

>>5384881
Is it true your professor dresses up like Goku and parades around Akihabara?

>>5384859

You can find cheaper ones that are pretty nice. I've owned a $100 one and I've owned a $20 dollar one and there isn't THAT much of a difference. At least not with the ones I've owned. Some of them you can tell are really high quality and better silkscreen and nicer fabric but a lot of them are just average quality and because of the manufacturer the price gets jacked up. You just have to take your time when picking one out.

I have a shit-tier waifu who I dont think I share with anyone else
I dont know how to feel about this

I bought the Dengeki G Festival Deluxe Tenshi one but have yet to get a pillow for it. Kinda hard to find in Germany.
Where do you guys usually get yours?

>>5384891
Jealous?

>>5384892
They might release stuff for Bern eventually.

>>5384893

Yep. He was actually one of the first people to start giving tours around Akihabara, but for scholastic purposes. As his tour became a larger attraction, he started pandering to the crowds and cosplaying.

>>5384905

Honestly, it's hard to find pillows to the specifications of cases outside of Japan. Since America uses a different measuring system, I had to convert CM to inches to find out that I needed a 55 inch pillow to fit the case properly.

I searched online and was redirected to a maternity store...if I wanted a pillow now I could just walk into Gamers, but I don't know how I would take it back with me.

DURR HURR DERRP

>>5384925
i lol'd

>>5384918
Fuck. Well, I think I found some fitting ones on ebay. They're cheap, so I'll just buy and see.

Didn't you say you weren't going to buy the pillow because you live with someone?

>>5384951

If that doesn't work, just go into a maternity shop...they're bound to have SOMETHING, although that might be worse for your self-esteem if you walk into a place like that alone.

>>5384954

1. I caved.

2. The apartment that I'm staying at with my friends has separate bedrooms for each of us, so I get my own bedroom to myself, and we're all somewhat reclusive. I can have it in my room with no worries.

The only problem is when I'm actually at home. Seeing as I never clean my room and my mom always goes in to drop off clothes/use the ironing board which is there for some reason, I'm going to have to hide it in a giant footlocker in my closet.

some dude i met at an anime conv have one of these..
according to him.. shit's not so "useful", since most of the time you will be afraid to hug it.. most of them cost a fortune and dont do very well after you wash them...

>>5384987

Why would you be afraid to hug it? I'm used to hugging my pillows when I sleep.

>>5385000
because he doesn't want to get it dirty.. especially during summer when you sweat like hell...

>>5384960
Thanks. My cousin just gave birth to a child so I'll probably get a chance.

>>5384925
holy shit

>>5385007

Fucker never heard of air conditioning? My room is frigid all year round.

Only pillowcases I have are Kanade (Tenshi - Angel Beats) from Dengeki G's Festival Deluxe and Rin (Little Busters), which was an UFO catcher prize.

Both still packed due lack of pillows.

I have a tiny Konata pillow, though it really isnt the same as one of those bigger ones. I'll probably get one at some point, but I'll rather make the stuff in my room gradually "worse" than just get one of those; I've already got the courage to get some "sexy" figurines.
too bad I have such a young little brother though, I really cant get anything too erotic unless Im going to hide it when he might come here. and thats about any time he isnt at school or sleeping. its not about just my "pride" ;_;

>>5385018
meh... dunno about him... i guess he just sweats alot.. im planning on getting one myself after moving out of my college dorm.. the good ones usually cost around 100 US dollars, which is kinda expensive imo

>>5385041

Where exactly do you get the Dengeki G's magazine from?

>>5385044

I'm aware. Like I said, most of what was being sold in White Canvas was going for much more than that. I was going to get a Kogasa one as well, but didn't because

1. too expensive
2. already had the Bern one
3. Bern told me she would torture me if I got it

>>5384908
How the hell did that guy manage to be a professor just by being an anime otaku? You were saying he teaches courses on anime or some shit, what the fuck, what kind of university has courses on anime?

Mine sit in a corner, I don't look at them much and I've certainly never used them for anything else.

>>5385114

www.tuj.ac.jp/

Also, Roland Kelts is a fag. I've said it before, but I'll say it again.

>>5385114
I took a Japanese film course as an elective at my college, and the same professor also taught an anime course the semester after. Didn't bother to sign up for that, though. College transcripts are no place to let your weeaboo show.

>>5385070
AmiAmi, HLJ, HobbySearch

>>5385114

Culture studies in Japan is a special topics series being offered at the school. I'm taking all the courses and it's actually pretty interesting.

Also, despite doing that, he's actually pretty well-known as one of the only authorities on popular culture coming out of Akihabara. The man spent 6 years studying the place. He's officially an ethnographer and has a really good reputation in the area.

>>5385122

I'm on good terms with the guy and the rest of the class seems to like him but view him as too professional and not as approachable as Patrick is.

Sage because I really don't feel like talking about my classes again.

Who here has sold their dignity for a 3D whore?

>>5385135

Not exactly the kind of thing I had in mind, but thanks. I was actually looking for shop names.

>>5385170

Do cosplayers count?

I own three and still have dignity...

>>5385134
if you were interested you should have sat in, even if you weren't going to get credit for it.

>>5385231
>I own three and still have dignity...
>three
>dignity

No camera, but this is the one I have.
I love her so much. I can't even sleep at night
Her description said she can "absorb bodily fluids", and so far, it's been somewhat accurate.

I'm not opposed to the idea but do not want anyone to see.

>>5385240

What pillow and character is this.

>>5385240
Forget the picture. Fuck.

>>5385288
Chinese Reimu and Marisa?

Should've spent the extra money.

>>5385240
how do you wash it?

>>5384905
Lucky you. I can't find the magazine and have been looking for a while.

>>5385288

How much did it cost and where?

What websites do you all buy your dakimakuras from?

>>5385304
Cold water wash, delicate, and by itself. No dryer, I let mine hang dry. I'm not actually sure if thats what I'm suppose to do, but I'm too paranoid to try putting it in the dryer
>>5385298
Chinese Reimu, where?

>>5385322
80$. eBay.
They have some cheap 30$ ones though.

>>5385323

>>5385288
How come and you didn't get one of Kaguya?

mine...

I'll never understand the appeal of fornicating with a flat portrait.

I don't actually buy dakimakura but I have two that came with my deluxe package of the chaos;head game: Nanami and Rimi. I don't actually use them as pillows either; I have them up on my wall.

>>5385424
I couldn't find one ;-;

>>5385450
Think of it as your waifu rather than a portrait.

>>5385450
>2D
>flat
>I'll never understand the appeal of fornicating with a flat portrait.
Then you're wrong on /jp/.

>>5385502
This guy says he ships overseas, so you could try ordering this from him:

http://www.dakemakura.com/198_shousai.html

Are there any pillows with character back shots?

>>5385574
Yes. Have a look:

http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/list/1016/0/1

>>5385553
Wow, thanks, it's so cute.
Too bad about the mosaic though

I'm going to custom print this one

>>5385588
Only one of the images of her pussy on that page has a mosaic over it, so I'm guessing the dakimakura won't have one.

What is this dignity you speak of?
Here's mine.

>>5384764
I would buy one of those.

But

I wouldn't dare to put my head on it. I could smudge it with my sweat, or something worse.

>>5385635
But hugging them feels good man.

I've got a dakimakura with a plain white case.
It's nice and all, but I know I still need a proper case - I just can't decide on one.

>>5385582

You made my day.

>>5385553

I'd like to take this one to my favorite Ramen place and then we would make out happily at the fair

>>5385553

Naked Kaguya looks like a black-haired Rika.

where do i get a kaworu nagisa one

yes i am a girl

so ronery

>>5386764
Only when she's lolified.

>>5386776

Nobody cares if you're a girl. In fact, I think it would have been more acceptable to make your request and have us think you were a guy.

There is no Kaworu that I found. Try looking on your own. The only thing I found in relation to androgynous males is a Hideyoshi, which somehow looks sexier than the one of his sister.

>>5386764
She doesn't have purple eyes and has noticeable breasts.
