海外の萌垢擦りタオル

Darkknightさんがfigure.fmで投稿した写真だ。カリフォルニアのストアで発見した萌垢擦りタオル(ナイロンタオル)。
何らかの公式グッズでもなさそうですし、どこのキャラクターでもなさそう。短い髪の毛のフィーナーっぽい。
海外では萌えグッズが増えているかな。

My graphic design teacher tells me not to use anime characters on my designs... they don't sell... Of course this was almost a decade ago.
Let's see... not a lot of anime pictures on products over here unless it's import, but I know this one travel agency company uses this anime-like mascot on their adverts.

"America's #1 Pharmacy." WAG, Has some Moe inspired characters to spread Halloween spirit. I got that feeling after seeing the character "Treats". Just look up WAG and look at the Halloween promotions. Yeah, they are quite original, yet Moe.

You would never see moe merchandise here, unless your in an Asian store, although even then it's highly unlikely you'll find moe merchandise.

I like the idea of anime packaging as long as the character itself brings up the cost :/

There are definitely a lot of anime looking characters on items around here, especially on the tops of Boba drinks.
Also, stuff like Esurance runs commercial on TV with anime looking characters as well (or arguably more like comic book characters).

I don't think I ever seen anime style characters on packaging of things. When I rarely do, I go over to see what it is. So I guess it's effective marketing?

I wonder if you could sue them for that, it's not like it's actually gonna cleanse your soul xD

An extended washcloth to hit the back and back under shoulder area is a good idea. She looks like the Fujibayashi twins on Clannad to me. The picture, however, wouldn't be allowed here since its close to the visuals not allowed in the USA. I like it a lot, its a good idea Anime like characters are being used in advertisements. I don't think it would be a good idea to use Named Anime characters on items (it could harm their reputation), but these generic ones are fine.
