Daiso Releases Snack-Like Stationary
Daiso is one of the most popular dollar stores in Japan, so much so that it’s popularity
has transversed into other countries. One can find many articles on the internet about
Daiso products.
Well, here’s some good news- Daiso has released their new, kawaii stationary at their
Japan locations!
1.Bismemo
Though the elaborate packaging may look like it contains biscuits, the Bismemo actually
contains biscuit-designed memos. Don’t fret, they can be used like any other memo pads
out there. But, be careful; you should keep them away from your kids!!
2.Nerisk
An homage to the American mint known as Frisk, the case for Nerisk resembles the original quite closely.
Nerisk is frisk +nerikeshi, which means kneaded eraser. I have no idea how it works
actually, but the package says made in Japan, so maybe works well. The flavor is about
comes in 5-6 types, so you can choose your favorite.
3.Pulse
In Japan, there is a gummy called Pure gummy, and the packaging is actually quite
similar. Isn’t it really cute? And not only is it cute, but it’s got a high value for its pricing.
This has 6 small, sweet melon smelling erasers . It must be popular among young girls in
an elementary school. It also has 3-4 different flavours.
4.Pensil
Now, for the finale, we bring out the parody for the beloved Japanese staple- the Pokky.
Actually, it is a pencil,but it looks just like the Japanese snacks you could get at Walmart,
etc. If YouTubers find this, they will use it as a pokky prank for sure.
How were these parody products?? Doesn’t it make you want some??
Since we use them everyday, our stationery should be unique! It could even be used as
a conversation starter. Why not get one for yourself, or even for you friends as a piece of
unique Japanese culture?
