‘Chi’s Sweet Home’ – Anime About a Kitten
(+18 rating, 18 votes)
Loading ...
Chi’s Sweet Home is a Japanese Anime based on a Manga series by Konami Kanata. Not only does the show revolve entirely around a kitten’s life, but the actual cat mannerisms are spot on and absolutely adorable! The episodes are pretty short, each running at around 3 minutes, but contain so much super-packed kitty cuteness that the length seems appropriate.
To get your Chi’s Sweet Home fix watch the first episode after the jump, or hit up CrunchyRoll for tons of full episodes (and yes, they’re subtitled!).

Momiji dolls are a modern take on Japanese Kokeshi toys. They retain classic characteristics (carved from wood, have large heads and lack any real appendages), however, include an entirely unique the hole on the bottom – each doll comes with little pieces of paper for writing secret messages. Also, these dolls have irresistibly adorable names like Clever Clogs, Silly Billy, and Hurray.

Chocolate ‘Collon’ Melts in Your Mouth
(No Ratings Yet) Loading ...
Glico Collon Choco Nuts
The best way to describe Glico’s Choco Collon is chocolate-filled chocolate Combos. The outer shell is a flaky chocolate tube that, with one easy bite, reveals a delicious creamy chocolate mousse inside. Choco Collon treats are simply delicious and aim to fill that ever-present chocolate craving. Then again, just being able to say “Want to try some Collon?” to your co-workers is reason enough to get them!

Marvel's 3 Age Iron Man Action Figure
Standing at 12 inches, this soft vinyl 3 age Iron Man is menacingly cute and shiny (I assume also squishy & huggable for those so inclined). Unfortunately this little guy is impossible to find in the US and sells for 3,990¥ or about $40 on blister.jp
