Dakimakuras anyone?

Ooooh that stuff, 'eh? Yeah, definitely the least comfortable material to sleep with IMO. Go ahead and iron it. Just be warned not ever "low" setting emits the same heat. ;)

And BTW, thanks for the rep, ZZ.
Oh, and did I say that I bought 2 more covers? Yeah, make that 4. Good grief, Charlie Brown.
I'm seriously done for a while now. I just blew $573 (including comission and handling) through Rinkya for three covers! I nearly had a f**king heart attack!

Perhaps I will post which ones I bought later today. A couple of the covers I bought may not appeal to some of you (you know who you are, LOL), but hey, I think they are pretty hot that that's what matters. Plus, its a hentai pillow cover. If you're gonna' get caught with the shit, why not go all out. :)

Lol. I wouldn't suggest ordering a pillow from Japan unless you have the money to blow on it. I was quoted 6800 yen for shipping an A&J pillow. As much as I would've loved that pillow, there's no way i'm paying more on shipping than the actual item itself.

As for ironing dakimakura. It really depends on the material. If it's SK suede, then shouldn't be a problem, but tricots in general are made up of polymer based fabric, (think plastic). And if any of you have had experience with plastic and high temperatures, you know they don't go well together, so I wouldn't suggest ironing triots. Plus, they tend to stay wrinkle free anyways.

And ouch. 573 is bloody expensive. Likewise I've also had my heart attack moments lol. Thinking subjectively, it really is nothing more than high quality images printed on a dual layered cloth. But w/e.

Don't think there ever was a 90x90 dakimakura.>_>

yea d00d, illustgallery produced a few.

but you know what? it doesn't matter cuz i'd stuff it with pillow filling i got anyways lol i forgot i started doing that =P still royalpillow.. goodshit.

Post them already! :D

And I definitely agree with going all out. The last cover I received is probably one of the most explicit, and it's loli to boot. >_> Definitely not something that's going to appeal to everybody, either because it's loli or they'd be terrified of importing it.

And you're still holding a pretty good price ratio for covers including commission, I'd say. My last SMJ purchase was 11500 yen and came out to like $193... the one before that was 32000 and came out to $500.90. >_>

A tad bit misleading, these are big cushions.

I think Loli is banned around here, so don't post erm. Personally , I have a preference for busty women, never was a fan of any flat or child like. Come to think of it I have less then 5 loli covers. 2 of which is Nymph but she's technically not a loli.
And man, are you going wild with your purchases, I'm inclined to believe you print money.

Yeah, it is, so I had no intention of posting it. Just merely point it out. Though honestly, the exact rule isn't so clearly defined. I personally don't think a flat chest automatically equals a loli, and the same goes for similar loli traits. Like, I'd have absolutely no problem posting pictures of the Marks Nymph cover; I don't think it would get me into any trouble. But I'm definitely not going to post the cover I'm referring to, as I'd definitely consider it loli (the BWStore Ashlotte 2P.)

At the worst, if Kobun thinks his covers would violate policy, he cant just give us the circle/character and we can find them ourselves. And he actually didn't say his covers were of the loli sort; I was just giving him an example to show I'd be interested in whatever he has to show.

And you're certainly one to talk, Mr "I buy two of every cover." ;p

Also, on the whole cushion/dakimakura thing, that's just pure nitpicking. I understood what dfan meant when he said 90 x 90 dakimakura. Dfan, which one did you get, btw? I own a couple from IG myself. I still prefer the body pillow format, but the cushions are really cool too. When I order from Royalpillow, I'm definitely going to see if they'll do some in 90 x 90 (or the equivalent in inches.)

LOL,Well, I havn't been doing that recently because of the appreciating yen against my dollar. But most of the time, those apply to orders and YJA stuff thats around 15k. I no how fragile 2WT are, and it would break my heart to see any nicks on them.
As far as those 90x90 cushions go, I would love to get a few of them but the previous ones I saw on YJA were SK suede and the current ones are mindblowing pricy.
And this talk just made me remember how pissed I am at Naka for running away with my money.>_

Yeah, I can't afford to do it much longer. T_T I honestly can't afford to pay for my current orders right now, and may have to ask for an extension from SMJ to get my through the holidays. That won't stop me from doing one last Evening Call order with some covers I want, since it should all ship in March and I could probably juggle that and the Anko/Marks orders in February... but after that, I definitely need to cut down on my spending.

They're really cool, but I agree with you that the current prices are ridiculous. I passed up on a chance to get a 2WT version of the Himeka cushion for around 17000; I do kinda regret it now since I'd eventually like to own all of Anko and IG works (not sure how that's going to work if IG bailed, but...) but there were just other covers I liked at the time more. I picked up a 2WR of the Qwaser cushion for around 20000k, and it's absolutely fantastic. Then I managed to snag Yukari from Mandarake one morning for 10000. Sucks that it's SK, but it was still well worth the purchase.

Pretty much... granted I don't really want Nymph to come in right now when I can hardly afford it, but I'd really like my spare Twins cover. :(

Hmmm after looking through YJA the cheapest (of the two) Cocona Vatel (ar tonelico) Daki's was 11k yen. Im just not willing to spend that much cash. perhaps a cheap one will show up. That one deal you mentioned before must have just slipped by everyone.

I got like 2 Nagomi and Sono waiting.>_>
Though I have one but I treat my that one piece like a ancient artifact.
Though, I managed to snag the Patchouli Daki from Verdant force , been looking for it for ages.

Yeah, I have one currently and decided to pick up a backup when IG had their sale... >_>

The one on Mandarake? Was considering it, but I really can't afford anything else right now. T_T The Active Mover set looks nice though; I love the cover and I think that's around what I paid for it alone.

LOL, I had to cancel one daki off amiami to get the patchouli.The active mover set daki is the one with Mio and Azuza yah? Anyway, evening call suddenly replace 2WR material for a batch of pre-order dakis to Matsumoto Spandex Lycra. Whatever that is.

Yeah, it is; it's a really nice cover. And I noticed that too, I think it may be because of a general problem with Seiren. Boncool had to change the material for two of their covers from Seiren 2WT to A&J 2WT, and from the translation, it looked like it had something to do with Seiren not wanting to print explicit works. So I'd imagine it was the same deal with Evening Call. Never tried Matsumoto as far as I know, but I'd hope it's pretty similar to standard 2WT.

I'm a little disappointed by it, since I wanted to try Seiren, but oh well. If I get a free upgrade to AJ2WT, I'm fine with that. :3. And Matsumoto can't be too bad considering it is a tricot as well.
Now then. Going back to the loli convo, as Shashin mentioned, I do believe it depends. Flat chest doesn't automatically mean loli, though in general, loli do tend to have flat chests. I myself have just one loli cover, or maybe 2? I don't really know. But, in terms of tastes, I'm with Zengar lol. I tend to like bustier women. :3 Or at the very least, I like "average" sized breasts. :3

EDITED to add the correct Clochette-soft cover.



OK, here are the covers (and one pillow) I recently purchased that put a sizable dent in my wallet. Sorry, I am not going into super detail on each. It is late and I'm tired. :)

Wait a minute...How do you even get the Clochette-soft daki? isn't that a comiket release? And love that Litchi pillow.
Anyway, the last 2 images are Futa girls. I saw the dakis before.

Is Seiren suppose to be a inferior material comapred to A and Js?
And thank god, bro. Someone with similar taste. It's nice having daki lovers coming together, but for a person who loves mostly "prominent" assets, I was feeling kinda lonely. Since Sashin and co leans towards flatter girls.>_>

WANT!!!!!!!!!!! ;_;
