  hate to spoil the fun, but i think it's just one of those long pillows with a PRINT of the CHICK named "Misako Yasuda." just ran a google image search and she's pretty hot. Considering the cdjapan.co.jp webiste also has bed sheets with the same print, i think its a safe bet to think this is just another printed product. Not the same thing as those "lap pillow" deals.

  Need I say more? Ok, I will, these are called 'dakimakura', hugging pillows, or dutch wives and are quite popular among the geeks, dorks, nerds, dweebs, jugheads, eggheads, gaywads, dickwads, dorkwads, dingbats, cretins, shut-ins, and socially inept of Japan. They come in two flavors: bikini idols, and underage anime girls.</img>

  Of course not, but I will anyway. Also known as 'dakimakura' or Dutch wives, hugging pillows are quite popular among the geeks, dorks, nerds, dweebs, jugheads, eggheads, gaywads, dickwads, dorkwads, dingbats, cretins, shut-ins, and just plain socially inept of Japan.

  Hey people, perves, and all you Culturally Illiterate, "Hugging Pillow" is a mistranslation!
  
  This is a piece of celebrity memorabilia. Misako Yasuda is one of a couple hundred of Japan's supermodel celebrities.
  
  Now, keep your mind clean, otherwise you'll never understand.
  
  Japanese Culture is extremely different from American, so they don't think the way you do. Ideologically, Emotionally and Sexually, the Japanese are a much more liberated people. This means they're actually a lot less likely to have psychological issues. On the other hand, most people have issues with them.
  
  This pillow is the same idea as a cardboard cutout, bedsheets, or a body pillow. The Japanese don't automatically think "sex toy" whenever they see something that turns them on.
  
  "Hugging Pillow" is a poor mistranslation of "Body Pillow"
  
  In Japan, they have "Modeling Videos," a kind of nerd's music video based upon (nonsexual) beauty. Unlike Americans, they don't jump from "Divinely Gorgeous" to "Sex Goddess" in a nano-second. They stay fixated on beauty the way a 9-year-old does. Sounds innocent, doesn't it? Not really, in the minds of Japanese anyhow.

  Maybe after you've seen Misako Yasuda's videos then you'll be convinced 143 bucks is worth it!

  LOL. The one guy defends the Japs and says that they have those things for "celebrity memorabilia" and not a sex toy. Yeah, right. The Japs are little horndogs...
