Tony Taka Dakimakura from Comiket 75 (NSFW)

This post is so very, very, very unsafe for work, school, or public areas.

Dakimakura tend to invoke a universal set of responses, usually something like, “omfg i cant believe u bought one.” It doesn’t really matter if the image printed on the pillowcase is innocuous or innocent or not pornographic in the least; the very idea of owning a pillowcase meant to sheathe a holding pillow is, to some people, completely alien.

That meant that when I decided to buy one, I went for the raunchiest one I could find. This one definitely qualifies as raunchy, to say the least.

Originally sold at Comiket 75 last December, I got this pillowcase from Tora no Ana via Masato’s M-World Service. The design is by well-known artist Tony Taka. Being unfamiliar with Clannad, I thought that these girls might be from that series as it was the theme of Tony’s C75 doujinshi, and while they look superficially like them, I’m not sure I can identify the brown-haired girls.

The pillowcase came folded up and I’m not sure how to remove the creases. Perhaps they’ll go away over time.

I don’t know all that much about textiles so I’m not certain what material the pillowcase is made of. I’m not sure if it is evident in the photos but it has a pearlescent luster and it definitely feels synthetic to the touch. I think a lot of dakimakura are made of polyester so I’d guess this one is as well.

Maybe I should have gotten a dictionary or something heavy and tried to flatten out the creases.

Taking pictures of something this large was actually quite difficult. As I haven’t vacuumed my floor in a couple of weeks, I put a towel down to keep dirt and dust and crumbs off of my pillowcase.

Definitely should have made an attempt to flatten out the creases. Unfortunately I don’t have the space right now to keep a body pillow around, but then again, I might try to create some space because this is a really, really cool pillowcase.
