San-X
San-X is one of Japan’s top stationery manufacturers also known for their collection of adorably cute characters.
San-X’s most popular creation is the lazy brown bear Rilakkuma who likes to relax along with fellow bear Korilakkuma, yellow bird Kiiroitori, and new friend Koguma!
The Sumikko Gurashi collection is another popular line which is made up of shy and neurotic creatures who prefer to stay in the relative safety of the corners of the room. Shirokuma, Penguin? Tonkatsu, Neko, Tapioca, Zassou, Hokori, Furoshiki, and Nisetsumuri are just some of the adorably shy characters you can make friends with in this cute collection of shy critters.
Sentimental Circus, another San-X collection, is set around a gang of abandoned toys who get together to perform their own circus at night. Join the adventures of Shappo, Mouton, Rio, Mr. Bear, Kuro, and Toto as they indulge their midnight antics just for you!
San-X are also responsible for Tarepanda - a floppy, lazy panda, the Shiba Inu Iiwaken, Mamegoma seals, Monokuro Boo pigs, and Zombbit - rabbit zombies.
You can enjoy San-X’s classic characters across a range of merchandise, not just stationery, with keychains, plushies, and other household items each showcasing the amusing activities of these adorable characters.
