‘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!

Chocolate & Grape Gummy? A Yummy Combination!
(+3 rating, 3 votes) Loading ...
Meiji Gummy Choco (Muscat) Candy
Chocolate-covered gummy candy just sounds weird! You’d think it would be incredibly gross.. however! Japanese candy has a knack for being both strangle and very yummy. ‘Gummy Choco’ (read CandyBlog review here) really proves to fulfill both chocolaty and sweet-tooth cravings (I like that sugar is the first ingredient… followed promptly by corn syrup of course, oh well!).
Once the silky milk-chocolate melts in your mouth, a chewy grape-flavored center is revealed – and it actually tastes like grape! (Muscat refers to a sweet floral grape variety). The candy comes in a fun, beating-stick shaped tube and can be eaten with wholehearted gluttony without making you sick (which is really important when you can’t stop yourself). So, put down your Pocky and experience something a little different.
