Polyester suede material. Full colour, double-sided print with one character on each side. I’m glad I’m not a fan cos it is expensive :P You’ll also need a middleman service too since it is only available from Movic Japan.
According to the marketing copy, Naoi (直井文人) is naked under the Y-shirt to create a homohomo (ホモホモして) feel. ^^;; Are there BL fan-service in the anime too? I haven’t watched it.
Plot Summary (wiki)
Angel Beats! takes place at a high school acting as a Purgatory, where students learn to give up any lingering attachments they still have from life before continuing to an afterlife or reincarnation. While the injury or cause of death are gone, those in the afterlife school can still feel pain or other things as they did when they were alive, as well as dying again, only to awaken with no injures several minutes later. The story follows the main protagonist Otonashi, a boy who lost his memories of his life after dying. Upon awakening in the afterlife, he meets a girl named Yuri who invites him to join the Shinda Sekai Sensen (SSS) (死んだ世界戦線, lit. Afterlife War Front), an organization she founded and leads which fights against God for the cruel fates the SSS members experienced in life. Their only enemy in the world is the school’s student council president Angel, a being with supernatural powers who fights against the SSS. Yuri believes that anyone who follows Angel’s orders and behaves like a normal student at the school will eventually disappear and pass on. However, those who fulfill their dreams in the afterlife will pass on as well.

1. I whole heartedly suggest Angel Beats, it’s amazing in every way. :’)
2. Where can you buy these?? D:
When i saw your post of this i remembered i never finished watching this series.
The slash/bl hints are great and it’s really cute. Hinata x Otonashi is adorable and Otonashi x Naoi is just plan “lol” cuteness~ ;3;
The story itself is interesting.
(The main girl character reminds me to much of Haruhi for some reason.;;;)
~”They are cute but look too kiddy-faced to be having these sexy poses ^^;; I prefer to have smexy, manlier looking guys if I buy a dakimakura lol~”
The pillows are cute but like you i also prefer the smexy manly man!XD
@sigma: maybe the Haruhi formula works so they keep using it ^^;; I’ll catch it one of these days. Work and classes… Priorities priorities OTL. Btw, Natsume Yuujin Chou anime has got the greenlight for 3rd season! XD Yay! Looking forward to it so much!
Manly smexy men yum! XD
Uuuuuuu they look hot XDDDD Too bad I can’t get the dakimakura, even if I’m not fan of the anime XD (haven’t watched it).
@Asamisa: They are cute but look too kiddy-faced to be having these sexy poses ^^;; I prefer to have smexy, manlier looking guys if I buy a dakimakura lol~
yes lol! if Angel Beats was a BL anime, i think it will go down in history as the best one ever. Hinata is totally ghey for the main character(Otonashi) in the entire anime. Naoi too, after episode 6. There is alot of BL innuendos and dramatic scenes, just to list some of the few…
-Hinata saying “omae hitsuyo nanda, i need you!”, then Otonashi will go “are you XXX?”
-Otonashi running like crazy to stop Hinata from catching the ball as he will disappear if he does so. “Hinata, don’t catch the ball!. I…I…I don’t want you to disappear!!!” The scene was totally like, ‘i need you by my side, don’t leave me!’ that kind of thing.
-When everyone gets bashed up by the bad guys and lie bloodied on the ground, Hinato is the first one Otonashi runs to, and Hinato goes like “you came for me first…could you be…”
-Dramatic hug scene between Otonashi and Naoi.
It’s all fanservice though, most likely done to attract the BL crowd. Sometimes i dislike having so much obvious BL tones in this anime and yet they end up with the girl for no reason x_x
Though I actually cried in this anime because it was that sad and touching. Although its more sad that the guys didn’t end up together!! xD
Do you buy PASH! magazines? they publish fanbooks of popular BL implicated animes like Code Geass, Sengoku Basara, Ookiku Furikabutte etc, and they’re releasing 1 for Angel Beats next! Just look at the cover! xD

@chibi: Sounds like a good anime to watch ^^ *puts on to-watch list*
Nope I’ve not bought PASH! mags before. I’ve seen some of their anime features and their covers are tempting but I usually buy magazines only if they give freebies ^^;; cos if like the series a lot, I would get the artbook instead.
