M's Factory Teases 3 Yuri!!! on Ice Futon Covers
posted on by Jennifer Sherman
Anime News Network's merchandise coverage sponsored by
Tokyo Otaku Mode.
M's Factory tweeted teaser images for its line of Yuri!!! on Ice Japanese futon covers on January 24. The company already teased a Yūri pillowcase in color, but the company only showed silhouettes of the characters this time. Can you guess who they are?
The Yūri Katsuki, Victor Nikiforov, and Yuri Plisetsky futon covers will cost 9,000 yen (about US$80) each. The Yūri pillow cover that M's Factory previewed earlier this month will cost 3,000 yen (US$27).
Yuri!!! on Ice face cushions debuted in November. Russian figure skater and fan of the anime Evgenia Medvedeva received a plush rice ball in December that was inspired by one Yūri gets.
M's Factory unveiled Mr. Osomatsu hug pillow covers last October. Other works to inspire hug pillows include Martian Successor Nadesico, Monster Musume, Strike the Blood, Girls und Panzer, A Certain Magical Index II, To Love-Ru -Trouble- Darkness, and Code Geass. English textbook character Ellen Baker received an unauthorized hug pillow last year. Voice actresses Haruka Tomatsu and Rie Tanaka even inspired their own hug pillows in 2013 and 2010, respectively.
Update: The article has been corrected to reflect that the items are futon covers, not hug pillows. Price information also added. Thanks, CrowLia and geishagee.
