Ahh, that sounds nice. Thanks for the extra info on Boncool. I'm curious, do you guys use some sort of translation program to understand website or you guys can read Japanese?

Don't know if good thing, but I wanna stop collecting figurines for this. -_-I was buying maybe $300-400 worth of figures a month at one point; pretty much anything that had boobies or looked really good. Once I really got into dakimakura covers, I completely dropped figures. I've picked it up a bit, but only because there have been some truly exceptional offerings as of late. But I went a solid year and a half where I only bought two figures (Rin and Dizzy.)

Not much money to go around these days, so I gotta decide soon. I'm already having fun just looking at what dakimakura covers I wanna buy so I think thats a sign.
About the B&W, you can order some covers internationally as long as the product name has "worldwide" in it? Some of these covers look awesome!

EDIT: I do have plans on purchasing another hugging pillow from them since the one I just ordered is 1500x500mm. So I'll have two, one for the 1500x500mm and the other for 1600x500mm.
Oh, yah, that nurse. But actually it would have been fine to buy just a 1600 x 500mm pillow, it fits all covers pretty well in general. Well, shipping for pillows is extremely painful.You could wait for the half shipping cost off offer from Amiami this year. And get your 2nd pillow then , if you're not in a rush.
Oh yes, that's right. The covers can stretch, LOL. When is the half shipping cost offer start? It is somewhat of an excuse to also have two pillows as well. lol. [/quote]
In 2010 it was during February and 2011 I vaguely recalling it to be during May.
Hobby Search also has half shipping off offers as well, so keep a look out for them as well.[/quote]
Thanks for the info on that, sir!

FUUUUUUUU! $146 for a A&J Feel Smooth Hugging Pillow. The shipping blew a hole in my wallet! LOL, you'll get used to it after a while. So what did you get?
From earlier post, I already purchased a cover from this website that sold the nurse game by WAFFLE, so at that point, I decided to purchase the hugging pillow itself. But since I ordered it Saturday evening, it was already Sunday in Japan, so Amiami was closed. I just got home to see if my payment is ready and it was, but I didn't realize it was going to be $50 for shipping. I'm fine with it though, Amiami is tough on cancellations, and I already cancelled with them before on an order; so I don't wanna give myself a bad name. I do have a nendoroid playset and another dakimakura ready to ship at the end of this month though. So I can't wait for that.

As much as I like Maken Kii, COSPA's print quality is rather bad.I don't mind COSPA and I generally like that they are almost always SFW. My first cover was Satellizer from COSPA and while the material definitely isn't as good as circles, the quality of the image is great. I have the Sena from COSPA on order as well. :P
I've own quite a decent amount of Cospa covers. I've got Kanu,Hinagiku,Ichigo,Jubei,Yukimura and Golden Darkness. There's probably some others that I can't recall from my collection.
Their print quality is bad, no matter how much you try to justify it. The print is only good on twill which is why if you notice most of the time the twill sells out the fastest. But I hate the twill because it feels like crap.
You'll be surprised though, COSPA has the BEST smooth Knit Material, that used to be Brain's Police pride and joy, but they no longer produce covers.
Cospa's smooth knits utterly detroys any smooth knit out in the market. Most smooth knits nowadays still feel amazingly abrasive on the skin. COSPA's one however is not only pretty smooth, it's also good if you're sweat prone, it absorbs and dries faster then almost any material except SK suede.Lastly, it's the most durable material currently out in the market after 4 WT.
And I no longer use covers which are SFW. I found that I can't sleep using them, must be some stupid beastial instincts of mine.
Great post, man! Learned quite a bit just from reading this.

Hi from Japan guys! Went to ACE2012 today and managed to get what I was after:
Lucky you! Really agree with Kirahito. The blondie is hot! The other one is pretty hot as well, it just looks like she is wearing a wedding dress.

Grats on nabbing your loot willy. Always good when you have a successful trip.For me, and my wallet, I'm letting out a big uuuuugh. I have 4 covers coming in so I wasn't planning on spending any more until they all came in, but low and behold COSPA comes out with the following. I love Maken-Ki! so seeing these is really tempting me. I already have one Haruka, but this new Haruka looks good and I mean Aki, well it's Aki how can you resist!?
My brain is going in overdrive. :(
I actually started watching Maken-Ki! as well, and Haruka is just yummy! I was planning on to just buying a cushion cover of hers, but after looking up for different dakimakuras, I ended up passing on it. -_-

Oh nice, Waffle has definitely put out some pretty nice covers. :DYeah, I couldn't find this cover anywhere and I stumble upon a website that happen to have it, so I just made the jump and bought it on the spot.
My first dakimakura cover! Going to order the pillow.

I was thinking of doing that at first as well, but I just said, "screw it" and decided to eventually buy a pillow and just put the cover on it. I heard it is REALLY comfortable to hug.

In my opinion, the community is kinda shit now that I have been here for awhile, except you guys. But welcome as always! Sorry for the negative comment, haha.
Oh my god those dakimakuras from Toranoana. O_O! I can't believe I just got myself into such an expensive hobby. -_- And I'm already collecting figurines!!

Canal! I bought this last year, I'm slowly trying to build up my Shunya Yamashita figure collection. I just ordered Friend from 20th Century Boys for my fiance's birthday, the spoiler-y images are marked as such so watch what you click!
Shunya Yamashita! <3!

Thanks for the reply, sir. I will be waiting for others to reply. I'm planning on to order it from Amiami. This question might sound dumb but, if they suck the air out of the pillow, how are you suppose to get the air back in? LOL. Also, another curiosity, I noticed that there are different materials for the daki pillows, which are the best?
I gave in, I'm actually going to start collecting dakimakuras. Just a few questions, how big would my package be if I were to have a pillow delivered? I also read somewhere in this thread about cleaning the covers, and recalled that someone said by hand. What are some of the ways to wash the covers without damaging it? Last one, I actually bought a "pillow case", just for the regular size pillows, and was wondering how you would wash that? It is polyester suede. Sorry if it isn't a dakimakura. But to be honest, after buying that, that was what got me into the world of purchasing dakimakuras.

My latest two hauls:
Had to get another copy of the HarthNir covers as these ones came with the letters that the other ones I got were supposed to come with. So now I have 2 copies of the one on the left and 3 copies of the one on the right. Ridiculous, I know, but I'm finally content. :D
That Shouji Ayumu daki! @_@
