A “dakimakura” (also known as an “anime body pillow” or “waifu pillow”) is a type of large pillow with a printed design from Japan. The word dakimakura translates to “hugging pillow”.

Dakimakuras are different to traditional body pillows in terms of sizing and use. Traditional body pillows come in a range of sizes, and are often used for physical support. On the otherhand, dakimakuras are often people-sized and are mostly used for emotional support.

Imagine waking up every morning cuddling your favourite waifu or husbando. This is an unique experience that you can only get from an anime body pillow. Touch, snuggle and even sleep with the anime character of your choice!

Dakimakuras are also the perfect gift for any anime lover – all you need to do is find out who they wish they could cuddle up with, and find it on our store!

Outside of being extremely soft and squishy, anime body pillows also helps improve your sleep. These long pillows can help with your posture by supporting your torso, arms and legs. Additionally, it can prevent discomfort or any soreness from sleeping in less-than-ideal positions. Add on the fact that you’ll be extra relaxed, cozy and safe thanks to the protection of your favourite anime character, and buying an anime body pillow cover is a no brainer!

We offer two sizes: 50x150cm and 50x160cm. These are the most common dakimakura sizes, and emulates the actual size of your waifu or husbando. Not sure which one to pick? In our opinion, bigger is always better but you need to also consider your own size, and the size of your bed (or wherever you are planning on leaving your pillow).

We offer two material types for every pillow cover: Peach Skin and 2Way Tricot.

The Peach Skin material is the most popular choice, due to it’s high quality and affordable pricing. It is really soft, resistant to any stains and can easily be washed. If you’re new to anime body pillows, this is the material we recommend.

Meanwhile, if you’re a veteran or only want the best, you may want to consider the 2Way Tricot. It’s a premium quality material that is unbeatable in terms of comfort. It can keep you warm on a cold night but doesn’t overheat you during summer. For hardcore anime fans, this is the more popular choice.
