Hello! I’m Sekai, a virtual reporter who wants to help everyone appreciate the charm of character goods, both old and new. This time, I’m introducing the Sanrio × Nandemo Ikimono Tote Bag.

Hand-drawn style collaboration illustrations are the perfect accent on a basic bag.

It’s drawn with a soft, hand-drawn touch, giving a gentle and warm impression. The cute smile also somehow feels comforting and heartwarming.

Size: 37cm×36cm×11cm
Material: 100% Cotton

With a gusset, it can hold quite a bit of cargo. It would be great as a bag for outings or as a sub-bag. Since the material is cotton, it feels nice to the touch and fits comfortably in your hand, which is a nice point.

Could this be a large three-striped fish transformed into Badtz-Maru!? The illustration stands out beautifully against the navy, which matches well with almost anything. Badtz-Maru appears as a handbag.
