r/ rilakkuma has reached 15,000 members!

Happy Halloween everyone,

We've seen so much growth here in just a few short years. Thank you all for the love and engagement that you show every day towards our shared hobby AND towards eachother.

We feel that this is an extraordinarily kind community; it's rare that there is any objectionable behavior that we need to act on. Almost all moderating we have to do is just for organization / administration, so thanks for making our jobs easier!

Congratulations on this milestone. We know that kawaii adjacent hobbies are not very accessible outside of Japan, but Rilakkuma has become more popular because there are people like you that love him and his friends.

As a closing, please feel free to join in a community discussion to celebrate:

  • What is your favorite Rilakkuma design or theme?

  • What is your dream Rilakkuma collaboration?

  • How has Rilakkuma inspired you to live a more relaxed life?

How to restore plush fur

TLDR: how do I restore rough plush fur to it’s original soft texture?

Hello! I’m new to collecting San-X and just joined this sub.

I thrifted this Korilakkuma plush, which had a huge dark blue marker stain. I spot-cleaned it with a baking soda and vinegar mix, then patted it down gently with a clean rag dipped a bit in fabric softener. When that didn’t work, I used a new tootbrush, dipped it in the solution, and scrubbed quite a bit.. (might have been a mistake but I was desperate to get the stain out) Most of the stain did come out, but now the fur’s a bit messed up. Is this fixable? Will combing it with a slicker brush help? (I tried with my regular hairbrush, but that didn’t seem to work). It doesn’t look that bad but I’m hoping to restore it’s softness back. Sorry this became too long to read. TIA

Uses for cute Rilakkuma memo pads?

I LOVE those little san-x memo pad books, especially the Rilakkuma ones, but never have any use for them! Ideas? Other than for jotting to-do lists & such, which always feels like such a waste throwing pretty paper away afterward :(

does anyone know if these were ever made for the iPhone SE 1st generation? and if so, is there any way i can buy it?? I've been looking but google has not been helpful. The one im specifically looking for is the Korilakkuma one. It's been my dream case since I was little haha.
