Wasn't too sure whether to post this but my job is to bring you otaku related Japanese product news so here goes…
The force is strong with this one. Sanitary towel maker Whisper seems to have a bunch of starwars fans in their GTM (Go To Market) department judging from their latest product.
X-Wing is their new napkin which comes with 4 tabs to stop it from sliding around. I don't know about you but the first thing that pops into my mind when I hear X-Wing is one of these
If you have a better name for this product, let us know…

BTW, I was looking up the Japanese word for a sanitary napkin and came across a site of a person who collected them. I really hope that person is not a man.

If you are interested in reading about life in Japan, seeing photos taken daily around Tokyo, like Japanese subculture (anime, manga, figures, Dollfies) then you may want to start delving into the Japan or Figure categories for a start or have a gander at all photo articles.

If you don't have much time now, maybe subscribe to the RSS Feed, Twitter Feed or join the other readers in the FaceBook Page.
Alternatively, you may want to read more about the site.
If you are a regular reader then this message will probably annoy you each time - hide it forever.

    Needs more AJAX. You can never have too much AJAX.

    ...well...maybe you can, but you can never have too much effective AJAX.

    This is just too weird...!!! the advertisement guys from this "napkin" company should re-think about their market campaign…or maybe, they had way too much access of Star Wars movies and did it on purpose...that is even weirder!!!
