Pillow talk

No Japanese model worth her salt is without a stack of DVDs and calendars bearing her image. But the people behind Misako Yasuda have managed to pull off a blinder in the spin-off product department. Namely the Tugging Hugging Pillow.

The life-size pillow is presumably well made and constructed of resilient material considering it retails at a rather pricey 16,000 yen (80 pound). Meaning a good rub should get rid of even the most troublesome of stains. Its size also means that it could be used to jerk work off a bit of stress as a novelty punch bag. A few thrusts and pokes easing any pent-up frustration.

And for would-be wankers bankers, the option of a pillow and sheets (pictured below) pack for 23,000 yen makes shrewd economic sense. A saving of 2,000 yen (10 pound).

Ok, that’s enough. You’ll be glad to know I’m schoolboy humoured out.

    I dunno. I think that I’d have trouble sleeping with a pillow that size. I’d probably be tossing in bed all night.

    I do not think sleep is the main idea behind the pillow.

    That’s one pillow I’d enjoy fluffing! It would make one nice head rest. Does the sheet come with an electric blanket, or are you meant to stay warm via friction? Do I win a banzuke?

    All very nice, but what’s with the ricket-legged model? Surely they could have ironed out her pidgeon-toe stance, before they went into production. OH, SWEET MERCIES!

    Body pillows with designs on them are actually common though ones with women screened on it are rather new to me. I’d pass on this product unless I was a hormonal 13 yr. old boy.

    I need something for a cover on a pillow like that.
    Just not that. I’m eather going all out hentai or getting one my mom can live with. Hug pillows help me get to sleep, without sleeping pills… Running on 62hr’s right now of linux, anime, and loud music.

    I don’t like the model it’s kind of eww 🙁 i rather have animes on it it’s way nicer but yeah i think they didn’t choose the right picture of her to put on that pillow >.>

    however people are wondering if they could sleep well on it? Yes to fully enjoy the benefit of it you need to put it as if it was a person on your bed you sleep on it and you hug it.

    The pillow is made to not cut the blood circulation in your hands it’s realy useful when you can’t sleep at all it doesn’t take time that you fall asleep And i’m being very honest if you lie your back on it you would be surprised how it feel good for few minutes. i have a lot of pillow case kind and style the first one was a collection one and a real one not printed meaning it been draw when they made it with the tissu IT”S extremely soft to the skin you melt on it it’s so soft that it makes you feel sleepy as if you were a big baby in your momy chest but this is my opinion and experiance i can’t sleep without this pillow of els i can’t sleep at all.
