I initially did that. I only had one for quite a while, then started buying more just for decoration. Up until recently, I only slept with my first one, but I was always deathly afraid of ruining it, and eventually wearing it out. I can't find it anymore, so buying a replacement in the future would likely be near impossible. I switched her with one of the others, but now it pains me that I can't sleep with her anymore. Damned if I do, damned if I don't.

Good thread OP, I started my own similar thread tonight here: >>11199582 . Where did you order from? What kind of material is it?

>>11199758
Have you ever considered getting a custom daki made? Someone in my thread informed me of HobbyHeart, which can do reportedly custom prints for only $50.

It looks like this isn't very well explained. Here is a link to the custom daki HH page:

http://www.hobbyheart.com/custom-made-dakimakura-hugging-body-pillow-cover-p-6.html#.UejiTo2xeRI

If you click the "Material" tab, you see macros of each of the fabrics. To me, it looks like 2WT has the nicest image quality and ~highest stats~ but this thread

http://archive.foolz.us/jp/thread/8817993

discusses the textiles too, and they mention that 2WT is delicate (?) and that peach skin might be more durable in the long run. Plus, it looks quite nice too.

I have two of the same character. Both are bootlegs, unfortunately (though the artist that did one of mine is Chinese and I haven't seen it on Japanese sites doujin or otherwise). I want a proper circle one, but it's a little pricy and worst of all, it's lewd on one side and I really don't know how it would sit with my parents.

But she's in a wedding dress! I think when I get some money I'll just go for it anyway.

Also, what's up with all this "waifu" talk? This isn't /a/; don't trivialize a beloved character with a joke-label.

My mother has always been quick to reprimand me or caution me about eroticism ever since I was young. Even now that I'm an adult she treats even mild sensuality or risque humor as outright pornography.

No, waifu from its etymology is a joke. IIRC, it comes from Azumanga Daioh.

I just tend to call her "her" online as to avoid saying who she is, but otherwise, I call her by her name. Or you could use any manner of loving names. Beloved, Darling, Honey, Love, My One and Only, Wife? Whatever. It's a little sappy, but at least it isn't a joke, you know what I mean?

I mean, I used to call her "waifu" as well because I wasn't sure what to call her, but I realized how offensive that is when you actually care.

That's truly the worstest. I guess my sister and I are lucky in that regard. We have fairly "proper" views on actual sexuality.

Unfortunately, I think it's turned me into a huge deviant to the point where normal sex has no appeal to me. I remember being attracted to loli and watersports since I was 13 or so. My sister is a shotacon. Causal connection? I'm not sure. I'm happy, though.

Using a different word for her (even if it came from a silly TV show) so as to acknowledge the obvious difference between your relationship with your "wife" and most people's relationship with their wives is not particularly offensive.

It's teat, you'll never throw off the chains of your oppressors without proper spelling anon.

I don't think normally people blame society for all their problems. If you do, I don't know what to say. Most people are in denial and don't want to admit that a big purpose of modern society is to keep people beaten down.

Maybe before you want to tell other people how to live their life you should take your "never be a bitch" stance and actually engage someone in these posts rather than shadowboxing strawmen you set up for yourself.

It's kind of like saying, Why do I need to paint the interior of my house? It's just a house and as comforting as any other house.

It's not necessarily a feeling other people share. Some people want a design because they end up taking pride or they know they'll find enjoyment in their dakimakuras. I know it's kind of a poor analogy, but it's early in the morning and I'm too tired to think of anything.

>dakemakura

I sent http://dakemakura.com/ mails from 3 different adresses, both in japanese and english. And they didn't respond.
I asked an internet friend to email them for me. And they didn't respond.

After 5 months of emailing I gave up and resorted to using a proxy a week ago. The order status hasn't updated. (well they only print daki the first decade of each month and the proxy is probably just lazzy, but still, I'm worried)

How did you get them to reply to you? When did you contact them and when did they reply?

Or are you just silly and dont adhere to the: dakimakura = 抱き枕 & dakemakura = http://dakemakura.com praradigm that makes conversations on /jp/ limpid and free of misunderstandings?

>>11201657
Because 2waytricott (as far as I understand it) is just a way to weave, like taffeta and satin; the material used is typically 100% polyesther (think microfiber not PET bottle).
A&J 2way triccot changes the raw material from 100% polyester to a 85% polyester 15% lycra blend; pearl roica and other types of "high grade 2 way tricot" also do this.

Also A&J released "like tron" around january 2013 which is suposedly even smoother, higher quality picture but more frail. Some reitaisai daki use it.

It does when the term fully assumes the connotation of the joke, which is now apparent everywhere.

I guess when you really grow attached to her it bugs you that a label like that holds those connotations so it's natural to seek a new term. I'm just so tired of hearing stuff like "holy shit X is now my waifu lol" from people who obviously don't give a shit, and it hurts when it's the girl you love.

So we should stop using the word "otaku" because some people go "holy shit im so otaku right now xD"?

Get real, you moron. Nobody is going to interprete "waifu" as a joke used in the right context as the denotation is not joke-material. Hell, it wasn't even used as a joke the first few years it sprung on /a/, it's only post-split /a/ with all the cool and hip reddit kids that it became an epic joke.

The way you fiddle around with which term to use is akin to transexuals using "Hir" instead of "he/her" or some other fuckery.
And it's also an insult to our inteligence as it implies that you have to take extra measure or we'll act like complete retards because you used this word and not another (while this is true when it comes to the shitposting crew, I'd like you not to lump all of /jp/ together with them)

All in all, your intentions are probably nice and all, but you sound like a complete retard making a fuss out of something stupid and probably are a troll trying to stir up some drama in one of the few actually otaku culture related threads on /jp/.
And I'd like you to stop because I don't like it.

For the past few years now, it's ONLY been taken as a joke.

Why cling to such a useless, easily misinterpreted term that holds no inherently positive connotation for the one you love? A term that began FROM a joke? The same term now associated with (to quote you) "all the cool and hip reddit kids".

>All in all, your intentions are probably nice and all, but you sound like a complete retard making a fuss out of something stupid and probably are a troll trying to stir up some drama in one of the few actually otaku culture related threads on /jp/.
I'm sorry you feel that way. However, when the root of the term stems from a joke itself, and becomes fully realized as a joke by the majority in the modern context I personally think it's time to use something else. I'm not speaking for anyone but myself.

Go ahead and use it if you want. I just don't want to tie her up with the "epic" bullshit in those collages, those stupid games that /a/ plays, and the idiots that drag their dakimakura through the mud to show the world their "waifu".

I doubt you're actually married, so she's not your wife. The others may suffice, but if you actually want to communicate with people in the outside world, it's better to use a term that people will understand.

Yes, it's used as a term of endearment in this case. See, sometimes people refer to dear ones by intimate names in order to show affection. Calling a girl "honey" does not actually mean that she is, in fact, honey!

>but if you actually want to communicate with people in the outside world,
I don't particularly communicate with people outside, and when I do she does not come up into conversation.

And how would they understand "waifu" unless they're familiar with online culture? And if they did, what are the chances that they know that I'm not joking? Why am I talking to them about a character I'm hopelessly in love with? Silly.

I mean "outside" as in "taking place outside of your head," as opposed to whatever internal conversation you have with your lovely lady. There you can call her whatever you like, but in conversations with the rest of us (such as the one we are having now) you will want to use a term people will understand.

Ah, I see. However, let's be honest here, she's an abstract concept truly realized only in my mind and heart. Unique to me. And for everyone else, they too realize her in their own special way. No two understandings are exactly alike. By this logic, everyone can share the same joy I have.

It's also in this sense that the character I love is not really the "canon" character (i.e. the author's), since she develops uniquely as I get come to know her.

To be fair, nobody but the author experiences the "canon" character in its full truthness.
Welcome to headcanon.

A character has as many overlaping versions as there are people who know that character. Just think of it like parallel universe if you need an analogy.

otaku A likes version A of 2Dgirl X and otaku B likes version B of 2Dgirl X; and it goes on and on. Sure, there might be two variation that are very similar, or even completely the same, but they'd still be different, not the same person per se.

You know. I tend to think of it like the urban market referring to their female companions as "bitch".

"She your new bitch?"
"Yeah, nigga."

Even if the context lessens the connotations of the term itself, I still find it's improper to undermine a relationship like that. When someone says "waifu", all I can think is that there's an implied "lol xD" that is supposed to follow. I know some people don't use it like that, but it would probably help them to know that the term itself is a half-joke at best.

Perhaps we can use 嫁 to create a distinction between a flesh-and-blood wife and our 2D companions.

>>	Anonymous Sun Jul 21 19:39:22 2013 No.11211101 >>11210597 You're right. I shouldn't be calling her my waifu. She is the one I love, not some title. Oh, how a fool I was to follow such a misleading path.

Doesn't even needing a distinction seem kind of offensive to you? I consider the love I have for my girl just as, if not more so, legitimate as anyone would have with a 'real' wife.

>>	Anonymous Sun Jul 21 20:48:08 2013 No.11211382 This just in: it is extremely unlikely that your waifu will be offended by whatever it is you're choosing to refer to her by.
