MOOMIN Bakery & Cafe

MOOMIN Bakery & Cafe

The Moomins (Swedish: Mumintroll, Finnish: Muumi) are the central characters in a series of books and a comic strip by Finnish illustrator and writer Tove Jansson, originally published in Swedish by Schildts in Finland.

Moomin 3: The Complete Tove Jansson Comic Strip

They are a family of trolls who are white, round and furry in appearance, with large snouts that make them resemble hippopotamuses.

MOOMIN Bakery & Cafe

My friend gave me some presents from MOOMIN Bakery & Cafe. A stuffed Moomin, Moomin family pasta and a spaghetti tong. The pasta and the spaghetti tong are shaped like Hattifatteners which are my favorite character.

torinoichi hello kitty

I went to “TORINOICH” in Asakusa. “TORINOICH” is an anual festival held in many places around Tokyo in Nov. And the most famous is this one at Asakusa.

I found Hello-Kitty’s bamboo rake. A special thing on Torinoichi was “Bamboo Rake for good luck”.

A highly decorated bamboo rake was particular popular as goods to bring happiness and prosperity in business. That seemed to be contributed by Hello-Kitty’s company “Sanrio”.

kawaii Managa 3 : Yotsuba&! (Yotsubato!)

Yotsubato 1 (Yotsubato (Graphic Novels))

Yotsuba&! (as known in Japanese “Yotsubato!”) is a very popular manga series by Kiyohiko Azuma. Not only Japanese girl, many people love them.

Yotsuba 2 (Yotsuba)

Yotsuba is a main character. She is 5 years old young girl. This story are depicted her daily summer holiday life with her father and neighborhoods.

Yotsubato 3 (Yotsubato (Graphic Novels))

Most of Japanese people love summer vacation at the best in a year, so I think it might be why this manga is attractive to Japanese.

Some of products born from Yotsuba&! are also released.

リボルテックダンボー・ミニ Amazon.co.jp ボックスバージョン 【初回版】

This is “Danbo” (cardboard robot). Danbo was represented on the story that Yotsuba and her friends made a robot with cardboard on summer homework (incruded in vol. 6).

Amazon co.jp reproduced Danbo with their delivery box. It’s funny idea.
