Shop of the Day - Relaxed Bear !

  Now, while busily marching across Tokyo station, you come aross this:

Rilakuma. This is an amalgamation of Rilakusu and Kuma. Relaxed Bear.

Such a cool name.

And check out the bear:


He's so relaxed!

So relaxed, he's got a yellow bird on top of his big head. 



  They've got plenty of cute animals:


  And they're doing good business...


 So, not only are the bears cute, but it turns out that relaxed bears are a defensive industry.

  2. gloomy doesn't seem quite as relaxed

    you should start collecting rirakkuma points from your local lawson. 500 for a small plastic rirakkuma plate!

    (thats just half the products in the shop, no problem)

  3. No way. My preferred provider of convenience shopping services is Family Mart - much broader selection of the things that count.
