Minmay and Yor buttons to add to my backpack.
My new Sega towels from Shimamura
I went back to Shimamura a few days later and found Sega towels on sale! They were all discounted from their regular price. For each of the Megadrive, Saturn and Dreamcast, I bought hand towels, face towels, and bath towels. The hand and face towels are a two towel set.
Here are the hand towels:
Here are the face towels:
And here are the bath towels:
BONUS! Here is a set of Urusei Yatsura’s Lum-chan face towels I also bought:
My Sega jumper jackets from Shimamura
Several years ago, I bought these jumpers at Shimamura and posted them on my Tumblr feed. I’ll repost these pics here.
This next one has Megadrive, Saturn, and Dreamcast patterns. It’s also slightly warmer than the Dreamcast one.
My new Sega cushions from Shimamura
Shimamura has come through again, this time with block cushions. This time I was late, as these were released in September. I learned about these by doing a web search. Like those Sega pillows I bought last year, these are detailed on the underside and since these are block cushions, the sides are detailed too.
Neat stuff.
Pac-Man stuff found at the Can Do 100 yen store
A few weeks ago, a couple of students of mine alerted me to the 100 yen shop Can Do having plenty of neat Pac-Man crap in stock. On my lunch break, I had to go check it out for myself. I scored plenty of neat stuff! This photo is of my loot: clear stickers, zip storage bags, two sizes of masking tape, a keychain, stickers, a trading card, and a memo notepad. Score!
Pac-Man boxer shorts
Finding clothing that fits in Japan can be sometimes worrisome. In America, I’m an M size, but here I’m an L. But while the waist may fit, sometimes they may be a bit tight around the boy parts or just be ill-fitting in general. A new trend are those irritating “boxer briefs” that feel weird. Fortunately, the maker of these Pac-Man boxers makes their boxers comfortable.
They also make these long boxers.
New YAJ acquisition: Nadia and Jean’s marriage poster from NewType magazine
A rare Nadia badge button for my backpack
Some neat clothing I picked up in January
First up is this black Urusei Yatsura sweatshirt. It features Lum on the back, and on the front breast it just says “Urusei Yatsura.”
I got this kick-ass Buck Rogers T-shirt from Ali Express. It’s neat that this website sells all sorts of unlicensed merchandise.
