Only In Japan: Horrifying Monster Hunter Pillow

That is not a pillow. We know it's on sale as a pillow, but in reality that thing looks like it just came from Arrakis. It's the Furu Furu monster from Capcom's Monster Hunter series [via Andriasang]. Apparently, some consider it to be cute, and people want to snuggle up to it. The mouth also functions as a pocket....

We distrust this supposedly plush creation. The pillows should be available late January in Japan. That might be a blessing since we'd buy one if they were sold anywhere else. And then we'd too horrified to sleep.

I looked up what this critter is -- it looks nothing like the pillow! The maw reminds me of a purple worm from the first and second editions of Advanced Dungeons & Dragons.

The pocket would actually be good for hiding things... :o I think it's cute.

Ok so I'll be brave enough to bring up the elephant in the room... I fear there will be people who will violate this pillow's "pocket" in horrible, unspeakable ways.

Kind of expensive though. Looks like a Khezu... 9240 Japanese yen = 103.38636 U.S. dollars
