What does owning a daki feel like, /jp/? Does it make the monsters

Ever hold a pillow before?
Imagine that pillow 3 times longer, lengthwise.

>>14366533
What does your family or non-weeab friends say when they see you own one? Does it disgust them?

>>14366681
I live alone in the woods.

It's actually helping me sleep.
I got a nice silk-blend cover on mine so it's usually nice and cool to hold at night too.
My friends don't care, they know I'm a weeb. It helps that I'm /fit/ and not autismo mode though

It's nice having something beside you in bed. In lieu of an actual girlfriend, a dakimakura is a good substitute.

>>14366681
My sister called me a disgusting pervert the first time she saw it.
After that, everyone just ignored it and never commented on it.

>>14366738
>My sister called me a disgusting pervert

tell her that it was either your 2d gf or a pic of her on your pillow

>>14366736
>It's actually helping me sleep.
Same. I'm now sleeping better than I have in months. Maybe years.

>>14367114
>or a pic of her on your pillow
I would love to see the reaction on her face. Too funny.

>>14369552
You wanna see that look on her face because you want to fuck your sister, anon.
I do too.

>>14369916
Yeah she got it for me for Christmas cause she knows I'm a weeb and all that. Daki and animu wall scrolls and a few shirts are the extend of my merch though.

>>14366736
Are you me? My friends all know I'm a weeb, one is slightly weeb himself, I'm also /fit/ and not full autismo, so even non weeb friends kinda just laugh it off when they see it.

Where would be the best place to buy the stuffing and pillow cases in the UK?

everyone so far has ignored it. not like i have a lot of people coming into my room anyways though

It's bootleg but the quality is on par with the original stuff and much cheaper

Best feeling ever. Need more to be honest.

>>14370796
I wish they were cheaper. I sleep violently, so spending $100 on something that will get holes in it or stretched out in a couple months is too much. Plus i'd feel bad for ruining an image of my girl.

It's nice for a while, years even, but the magic eventually goes away, but I still can't bring myself to take her off my bed. If I've been at home and slept in my bed any time in the past 6 years, she's been there. I even took her to London, but... it's still lonely now, even with her.

That's nice and all but who are you quoting? And why do you use "" in your quotes?

I sleep on my side and hug my daki. It feels so relaxing and helps me sleep like a baby.

>>14366681
I don't have many people to show it to, but everyone who saw it just laughed and put on a condescending smile. No one had the guts to tell me I'm a pathetic loser and a pervert. Not that I care

How does it feel to know your daki is literally used goods?

I really enjoyed it at first. When I first got it I rolled around in bed with it for hours.
Three years later it's kinda meh, but it allows some extra sleeping positions, which can be nice for your back.

Are there any good daki of Ritsu besides this one?

Should I get a lewd daki as my first one?

I don't get the dakimakura meme. Sure, the pillows themselves are comfy, but how are you even going to look at the case when you're in the dark trying to fall asleep? And it doesn't make a good decoration like figs do.

>>14373174
>meme
Please leave.

How often should I wash a cover /jp/? Do I hand wash it? Do I just put it on a gentle cycle in washing machine?

>>14373187
But it's true. Many people jump on the dakimakura bandwagon because it's expected of an otaku. There's no practical use to buy a 10000 yen pillow case if you can't even look at it as you sleep.

>>14373194
I wash it every 2 weeks, just some hot water into a bucket with some cleaning powder and let it chill there for a couple of hours.
The water almost always come out gray, so you really should wash it at least every 2nd week.

You can cuddle with your daki with a bedside lamp on until you're ready to close your eyes and drift off to sleep with your waifu in your arms.

>>14373194
I put mine in the washing machine with my tshirts. I guess it wears it a bit, but i have a spare.

>>14373255
Would it be enough to wash off blood though? I got a little bit of blood on it from a shave cut

>>14373353
Yes. Might have to shrub that particular spot though

>>14373194
Once a year is enough, just throw it in the washing machine.

>>14373194
Remember to leave it outside once it a while, the sunlight kills bacteria or something

My shitty pillow turned out too small and it also got flat really quick. But fuck the cospa pillows are so expensive like how can truneets like me possible afford it

>>14373545
Just get a pregnancy pillow, its basically the same just cheaper, got mine for 25eus and its comfy and durable

>>14366511
Just woke up to some weird nightmare this morning. Turned around and hugged her like my life depended on it. Daki is peace.

>>14373030
No and enjoy blowing over 200 for this one unless you want a Chinese counterfeit for like $40.

Jesus fucking christ what kind of people are starting to visit /jp/? Please go back to facebok and never come back.

Since we're talking about dakis, how are traditional japanese futons?
I'm looking to buy a new bed and those look pretty comfortable. I'd like something I don't have to dismantle and awkwardly throw out a window when it comes time to move.

>>14386315
They take getting used to, very thin.

I like my pseudo-futon, I just have my mattress on the floor, no base. Nothing better than falling on it after work.

>>14386323
I see. That might not be too bad though. My current mattress is soft and is making my back ache, so maybe sleeping more on the floor would be good for it.

Sounds like a great way to end the work day.

Imagine dying alonw at home and the cops finding you lying by your daiku.

>>14392202
You mean, dying of a heart attack while fucking an onahole strapped to the daki?

God I have a new phobia now.

>>14392794
People have died while masturbating before. I wouldn't even care much about the police, but rather about my parents. What would they think when a police officer knocked on their door one rainy evening and has to break the news to them that their precious son died while masturbating with a japanese penis holder strapped to a pillow with an cover that looked like a naked little girls from those japanese comics?

>>14392202

Oh no, now my parents and some strangers retroactively know that I owned a pillow with an anime girl on it before my consciousness ceased to exist. Awful. Terrible.

Anyone know a good retailer I can get a good filling for a 150x50cm case? I heard a recommendation for an A&J but I wanted to get /jp/'s opinion (in case COSPA or something is better, etc.)

I have a bootleg 2WT cover of pic related but the pillow that's inside seems a few cm too short. Any advice?

>>14394709
Everything cospa is shit when it comes to dakimakura. A&J DHR6000 (for 160cm, 150cm is 6001 I believe) is the gold standard, but if you're in the US and want something with a good quality:price ratio I recommend Royal Pillow's cluster fiber. It fits 150cm pretty well in my experience, though length can vary slightly between manufacturers.

>>14394713
Thanks. My existing one is from Royal Pillow, actually (referred from the /a/ buyfag guide).

Apparently I wasn't clear on what kind of fill I needed because I ended up getting a 30% down / 70% feather mix which turned out to be a bad idea because I have not gone one night without having to pull feathers out whose stems were poking through the case (Why, American people?).

I might look into that cluster fiber but I'm not sure if the length is proper. Either I stretched the case out while trying to shove the pillow in or it ended up a bit short (it actually should've been closer to 152cm/60" length but there's still a bit hanging on the bottom.) I probably better separate the pillow from the case and measure them separately to double check. I'll definitely look into it.

I'll be ditching the feathers one as soon as possible because it seems to be a better fit for pic related than moemura (at least it'd make more sense).

>>14394713

>>14394753
again. It turns out the "medium" range is actually right for the case. I'm not sure why it wasn't reaching the edges properly but after some diligent feather removal, smoothing, evening, and a night of use, it does appear to reach the edges of the case properly. Still seems closer to 150cm now than 152 but that's not an issue.

Feathers are still an annoyance so cluster fiber will be looked into very soon from the aforementioned burgerland retailer.
Feathers: Not even once.

>tfw the only good tomoko daki design is by Radiohead. Not pic related

>>14366511

I honestly never really snuggle or hold mine when I sleep.

I like her left of me and more often than not I roll over the other direction when I go to sleep. So I essentially sleep ass to ass with my daki.

Like a married couple when shit starts getting stale.
