... this is a good start, the pillow case is super soft too. The comic is pretty hefty has an interesting mix of strips, some it would appear with an emphasis on the strip; which I wasn't expecting. I'm hoping the Japanese isn't too advanced, though I bought it for the case maybe the comic will help with my learning. The paper/printing on the comic is very basic in terms of quality (cheap paper, ink feels like it might come off on my fingers) but combined with the dakimakura is a bargain I think. It's not the kind of comic one would keep anyway, just buy each month to read.
