I'd just go with peach skin. Natural Velvet sounds nice as well, since i'm guessing they mean the color will be velvet. But if you can't tell the difference I'd just go with peach skin.


The two-way silk is comfortable as fuck for a while, then the silk wears and it goes all fuzzy.

I would highly recommend not buying a dakimakura. Anyone who would even think about getting one is a complete idiot and needs to get a life. They are just pillows with pictures on them. Come on.

Don't knock it before you try it, you'll feel better the next morning (quite literally in this case).

I'm getting the 2way tricot, i read about all the different types and apparently that one is hands down worth it. So for me i'd rather just pay the 20$ now rather then saving 20$ now and then being like well now i want the high quality one and having to buy an entire second one + the 20$ for 2way.

I think the cheapest but also good quality is soft polyester. I got my daki in this site animedakimakurapillow.com they have custom made cover and the inner pillow is really soft, worth every bucks I spent.

As for...anime pillows? I honestly don't have much to add other than does it matter what material as long as its pillow like?



Yes I differently agree with you, some have a pervert opinion or thoughts when someone say "dakimaku" which is totally insane! I have 3 dakimakuras (bought them in this site http://www.animedakimakurapillow.com) and I can say that they are the most comfy and smooth planet in the world due to their high quality materials. If you are a hardcore anime fan like me, its like a collection at the same time, I just prefer a pillow that could feel at home with my collection and now a boring pillow case.

They sell them at home goods and furniture stores, but they, unfortunately, don't have anime characters on them.

BTW, who did you want an image of on the pillow?

Thanks for all your help, guys! I'd just like to let you know that I did already buy it and it cost $300+ with postage and handling. $96 for the case and $200+ for the actual pillow. Well worth the money I must say.

If you want something to snuggle with when you're feeling lonely, I know of something that works even better than some silly old pillow: a puppy! Or, if your apartment dosen't allow dogs, you could get a smaller pet like a guinea pig or a rabbit.

I finally got myself a dakmikura this week that i've been wanting for months, because it went on sale and they accepted a lower offer on top of that. Though it won't be here for a few weeks. I figured I'd be smart and make my own body pillow of the correct size. I have a white sheet with a hole that I don't need, so I cut it up, and just needed to get the filling. But the price of pillow & doll stuffing is just depressing. It would cost as much to buy the stuffing as to just byy the pillow. So I'm going with the cheaper option, and I'll go by 2 of the smaller body pillows and just sew them together to the right size. They are like 10" too small to begin with. That will only cost $15 total anyway. The cheapest I can find a 60" body pillow is $30, and the stuffing alone would cost about $30.

You can try this Dakimakura Shop ShoukoSS.

Their website actually has great designs unlike many others where you have to sift through the unappealing designs. Downside is the less mainstream designs may not be available.

I wouldn't assosciate with the fucking weeb who owns one of them. In my mind it's like they've completely given up on a real relationship, who wants to be involved with such a cynic? That's a self fulfilling prophecy.
Plus, I never saw the mentality behind one of these. Can't you just google your anime girl and then jerk off to it? Why have sex with a pillow? Or am I missing something cos I don't masturbate?

Wtf, just because you buy one of these pillows doesn't mean you have sex with it, lmao. mine is almost here and I just bought it to cuddle with at night because I think it's comfortable. There is no other reason behind it, and no I did not buy a nsfw pillow.

Why the hell would you want to buy one?

If you wanna buy a body pillow buy a normal one.

Honestly though, I've never had a need or want for one. And they don't really help me sleep better. So I don't see a point.

I'll just throw this out there: animebabe is a shill (prob works for adp)

Check their reseller ratings reviews, 3 scathing 1 reviews.
http://www.resellerratings.com/store/Anime_Dakimakura_Pillow

They're all buzzwords all over their site and their (apparently banned) youtube account and fake "bargains", plus they couldn't calibrate a printer to save the world. They went on youtube about how the competition is so bad and how their "unspecified model Japanese Mutoh Printers" are so great, but they never give actual technical details like whether they calibrate properly, or if they use UV resistant dye, etc.

I would suggest bypassing the middleman that is ADP and instead buying off alibaba, given my experience with ADP even if you get screwed on alibaba you're actually getting what you paid for, while you're never gonna get what you paid for with ADP's convoluted pricing schemes!

Well first of all the bought dakimakura's are made of high quality material and if you would be making your own, I don't think you could achieve the same results.
I know this because about few weeks ago i wanted to try one out as well and i ordered it online , came relatively fast and i am still happy.

Have you bought your dakimakura ? Here's my pillow, it's really good, the material is peach skin, even though is the most cheap one, but the quality is really good , smooth but no elasticity

You could buy it from the shop coosfly.com

It may seem creepy to some to own a body pillow (dakimakura) but...
There are a surprising amount of both physical and mental benefits of using a dakimakura correctly.

Most of the benefits of a dakimakura are the same as regular body pillows. Except for the mental benefits.

(some) Physical Health Benefits:

HELPS YOU FALL ASLEEP AND CONTINUE SLEEPING
INCREASES BACK (SPINE) ALIGNMENT
HELPS TO LESSEN SNORING
HELPS MUSCLES TO RELAX
Other…
(some) Mental Health Benefits:

CREATES A MORE COMFORTABLE AND RELAXING ENVIRONMENT
CREATES A FEELING OF SECURITY AND CALMNESS
HELPS TO RELIEVE STRESS
HELPS TO RELIEVE ANGER
Other…
If you want the details, this is where I took my information from:
