Yes. It’s official. The era of over-priced bishonen dakimakura for fangirls has arrived.
Title: Code Geass Rebellion of Lelouch R2 pillow case/ Hugging cushion cover コードギアス 反逆のルルーシュ Ｒ2 抱き枕カバー
Price: 9,240 Yen (w/tax)
Available: 23-24 September 2011
Pre-sale during Animate Girls Festival 2011
More information: http://www.animate.co.jp/special/agf2011/
No size description and no mention if it’ll be available for general release. It should probably be available at Animate stores after the event.
Quite a cute “safe for work” side where Lelouch enjoys a nice cuppa and a not overly sexualised bed look for the other side. I like that. Still too thin tho, this boy but I would most probably try to get this from the event. Do you think if Suzaku or other male characters will get a pillow case too?
Is the boy smex and weird looks from family/friends, worth the freaking 9,240 Yen?
A new fragrance of Emperor Lelouch will also be released. The limited version will be sold during the event and a normal version sold afterwards.

oh my!!!i want it badly~!!!but the price…it’s too high!!
btw,that dakimakura….it’s so sexy..ahh~ nosebleed~nosebleed~
@yuki: sadly so… gotta really save up if we wanna buy these goods :(
***HYPERVENTILATES**** OH MY GOSH OH MY GOSH OH MY GOSH OH MY GOSH OH MY GO- *dies from rapid fan girl heart attack, with blood shooting out my nose, and drooling* X3
Why so pricey?? T^T *sobs*
@ponytale – yeah, I took a look at the design o.o hmm, but it says its a bedsheet rather than a dakimakura. lol, but I’d prefer a sexier picture of Gin-chan :D
Yeahh, I really like school boy Izaya :D He’s rather cute! ^^ ahh, that’s a good choice! I do hope that he’ll get put up on other sites.
Ugh, but I still need to buy a pillow for Izaya & Shizuo (well, only one pillow) -___-; but those pillows are so expensiiive. GOSH!
@momo: yeah Gin-chan’s pic is not sexy but it loks very “in-character” :D Hijikata’s isn’t too bad lol~
Yeah I love the school boy Izaya’s design too :3 As for Lelouch’s dakimakura… I hope they take a long time to put him up lol~ so many goods on sale already… bank account depleted OTL;;;
Yep, the inner stuff cost almost a hundred bucks with shipping (ToT) I haven’t bought one either.
T-t-this can’t be real O_O this dakimura is just..PLAIN GORGEOUS, SEXY and awesome ;O; I was dying to get an Izaya one but this..Lelouch has killed me off, omg..this man is the meaning of sexy, even without trying to but now that he actually looks like..it’s making my heart stop ** I love it, I love Lelouch, I used to follow the series like crazy..this is..pure awesomeness..I cant breathe x_x
I want the fragance too
@Rukia: Yes, if only he doesn’t cost so much (ToT) I think I’ll wait for the normal release so I can save on the proxy fees.
I’m curious about the fragrance too <3
@ponytale – AW, did they? Damnnn! lol. -___- well, I hope there are more sexier ones then.
I have the one where he’s wearing his hoodie and shorts :D I guess..thats the school boy one? :) I also have the Shizuo too ^^
@momo: yeah the poses are quite tame lol~ The bootlegs you see on ebay are designs based on the original Gin-san and Hijikata’s dakimakura ^^
Yep, that’s the schoolboy versions <3 I have both of them too. I like my sexy dakimakuras manly but school boy ones to be cute. I've decided not to splurge on Lelouch's dakimakura during this event. Maybe later when he goes on general release (and I have more money).
@ponytale-how did I miss the Gintama pillows?? :-( I actually have 2 pillow bodies that I rotate the covers for, 1 is on the bed the other on our couch, but I do hide them when other people come over who don’t understand my hobbies.
@Prettyvillain: they were released quite some time back… 2006~2007? I can’t remember the date. I took a hiatus from anime/manga during that period so I was unaware until much later too. What you see on ebay nowadays are bootlegs based on the original designs depicting Gin-san in his blue yukata PJs and Hijikata in his uniform.
Yeah otaku and fangirls like us would seem strange to most people, including our friends and family ^^;; sad but true.
The nice is (or no, depending our wallets) is that dakimakura for women has become very popular, so we can see more in the future!
Talking about items for bed, I saw AmiAmi selling Tezuka and Atobe blankets! They’re very bishie, not a sexual pose but pretty indeed!
@sigma: lol I better should say, manly body XD I see those so thinny legs and can’t dig it. I don’t like very muscular men, though. For a dakimakura, I think Harada in a open yukata (even showing a fundoshi *///*) would be amazing, as well TnC or Sweet Pool guys.
@planck-chan: Yea! We can expect more to come! And I think I’ve made a decision about Lelouch’s dakimakura. I won’t try to get it this time during the event cos if I only have budget for only one sexy pose dakimakura, between manlier guys vs the really boyish ones, I prefer the manlier ones too :-\ Since it’s not an exclusive item, I’ll decide if I still want to get it later.
Harada in open yukata… WANT. Fundoshi… OMG XDD WANT!!!
Whoa Lelouch! Freaking smexii *O*
@xRawritzJess: if only the price isn’t so expensive…
@Prettyvillian – A Hijikata would be nice as well :)!
Aah, I want this very badly, even at the price. Despite the age of the series I am still gaga over this boy. He can share pillow space with my Hibari, Simon, Izaya, Akihito… My husband tolerates sharing the bed with my ‘other men’. I’ve been stalking this awesome site for a while but had yet to comment until I saw this item.
@momo-totally agree about the Gin-san pillow too (or Hijikata)
@Prettyvillian: thanks for commenting XD woah you have a very understanding hubby and a big bed for so many hot dakimakuras!
I love Lelouch too and yeah besides having a lovely pose, this is definitely a fan collectible.
I’m liking the picture…I’m liking the pose but…Lelouch is too DAMN skinny. But he looks sexy. I love Lelouch and all, but ugh, I’ll probably have to hold back on this -3-; He’s way too pricey for me and I’d rather save that money for my morimori clock! <3 Plus, i got an Izaya Dakimakura that I'm happy with :D (and that didn't cost me a fortune) b-b-but Lulu…!!
@Puchi – lolololol! That's what my dad would say TOO! Haha.
Though, it would be nice if they also sold him at online stores like all other dakimakuras I see -3-; Maybe then I would consider one….? (I still need to buy a pillow…)
BUT! With this, I'm hoping to see more characters show up! Preferably, ones that I like :) (NATSUME YEAHH????! or more so…Gintoki ♥, if it was Gin-chan, I'd go through the trouble to get him)
@momo: Gin-chan and Hijikata have their official dakimakura too. Released a couple of years back. Now they’re only available for sale from bootleggers on eBay.
Which Izaya dakimakura do you have? is it the school boy version? <33
lelouch needs to eat more x_x
i’ve never liked how skinny the chars of that series are.
@Shirokaze lol yeah everybody is stick thin XD. That’s just very CLAMP style.
Ahhh, he’s so lovelyyy! I probably wouldn’t buy it due to a potentially awkward conversation with my family.
I can imagine it now.
“WHY DO YOU HAVE A PILLOW OF A GIRL TAKING HER SHIRT OFF”
“DAAAAAD, IT’S A MANNN”
That’s way out of my price range, anyways! To think, for the same price you can get a lovely wake-up call from Morikawa Toshiyuki for the rest of your life!
I think I’d buy a Kanata dakimakura for that price, though… But that’s probably just slight character bias… Oh Honeybee~ It’d be awesome if they released lovely Dakimakuras of all the mens in pajamas, sleeping in innocent poses so that every night, ronery womens everywhere can sleep soundly beside their hasubandos? Full-body ones, at that!
@Puchi: hehehe XD that’s so true. That’s what the safe side is for. Might still be awkward when you have to do the laundry tho lol. How I wish he was cheaper.
You made a good comparison with Morimori’s clock :3
I think you’ll get your wish for Kanata dakimakura soon and burn a hole in your bank acc. Take my word for it. It will happen! Cos BlackButterfly, the company that produces those smexy sleeping boyfriend CDs and their dakimakura are actually under the same mother company as Honeybee!
Maybe kissing cushion is just a test market. Next up will be dakimakura! OMG!!
omg lelouch!! I love this dakimakura ! He pulls off sexy nicely! This is actually the first one i am seeing that i actually want to buy!*no~~~~ must not give in!* for the price is a killer!!!X-o
Love the idea of the tea pic on other side. Does the price also include the actual pillow with it, are just the case alone…?;;; so expensive….and it is only sold at Animate?=_= such a downer for the proxy fee will be a killer wouldn’t it? aww.OTL;
Would love to see a Suzaku!
The perfume pic is awesome!<3
@Plank-chan: XD! I am curious what manly character you want to see as dakimakura?^o^
@sigma: yep!! I like it that the sexy side is subtle too :D the sample pic is so small. Wish it was bigger so that we could see Lelouch’s face more clearly.
This is only the pillow case. The inner stuff will be another 80 bucks if you want to get a good quality one. I have an inflatable stuffing for about half the price but it’s just not comfortable for hugging :P good if u just want it for display tho.
It’s probably Animate Japan only but I’m not sure. Might get lucky if they decide to release in other online stores. I still have time to change my mind. I know I really shouldn’t spend so much on it.
I wonder how they would do Suzaku’s ^^
Hmm, no boxers Lulu? XD
Too pricey. Beautiful indeed, but Lelouch is a skinny boy, and even loving him, I’d prefer, for this price, a manlier character.
@Planck-chan: good question!! XD
Bandai/sunrise knows how to rip off fans! The pricing really sucks. I really want it but my rational mind is disturbed :(
