Free! Eternal Summer Gets 8 Dumpling-Shaped Face Cushions
posted on by Sarah Nelkin
Anime goods company ENSKY announced on Friday that it will release Free! Eternal Summer “Big Omanjū Cushions” themed after the anime's characters in Japan. The cushions are called “omanjū” due to their similarity to Japanese dumpling-like sweets of the same name.
The first round of cushions will ship in April, and are themed after the four members of the Iwatobi swim club: Haruka, Makoto, Nagisa, and Rei.
A second batch will ship in May, with four of the Samezuka Academy swim club members: Rin, Sōsuke, Aiichirō, and Momotarō.
Each cushion is about 300 millimeters in height (about one foot) and 400 millimeters (15 inches) in width, and will cost 4,000 yen (US$34) a piece. Fans might want to get their wallets ready, because in total, purchasing all designs would cost you a whopping 32,000 yen (about US$272).
The company is planning also to release other new Free! products, including clear folders with flaps, as well as B5 size loose-leaf paper.
