Hello everyone! Hope you are all keeping well, I have a massive haul to talk about today as last week I received 9 months worth of my Nihon Box subscriptions all of a sudden on my doorstep!<\/span><\/p>\n

As you guys are aware, I normally review the SoKawaii box each month. However that isn\u2019t the only subscription service I\u2019m with. Back in March 2020 I did a review of my very first Nihon Box, sadly when the pandemic started my boxes were stuck in their warehouse in Japan due to limited postal options. Almost a year has passed since my last box, when all of a sudden I came home one day to find two big FedEx boxes in my sitting room. The lovely people over at Nihon Box must have decided to rebox everyone's orders that they had been waiting on for so long and send them first class! So that way their warehouse would be empty of all back orders from 2020. To make it even more amazing, they had replaced any out of date food items with replacement ones. Such attention to detail and top class warehouse operatives too, as everything was packed with care. Not a single item was damaged, and there were a number of breakable items inside! I have to say, that team deserves more than just a round of applause!<\/span><\/p>\n

I\u2019ve known about this service for quite some time now, as I\u2019ve seen several unboxing videos from Doug D\u2019Marco on YouTube. Check out his channel if you can, he reviews several different subscription boxes and gives good, honest reviews. (https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/user\/Angelraider78)<\/span><\/p>\n

Much like SoKawaii, Nihon Box is a Japanese monthly subscription service that handpicks at least 6 items each month that are almost exclusive to Japan and ships them straight to your door. Their items are a mixture of Otaku Anime related merchandise and figures, as well as traditional Japanese items, from sweets to tableware. All of this is available to subscribe to for what I find a very affordable price each month.<\/span><\/p>\n

Like SoKawaii, the more months you pay upfront the cheaper the price for individual boxes will be.<\/span> https:\/\/www.nihonbox.com\/en<\/a><\/p>\n

Monthly is \u20ac29.99 plus shipping costs<\/span><\/p>\n

3 Months is a single payment of \u20ac86.97, making each box \u20ac28.99, plus shipping costs.<\/span><\/p>\n

6 Months is a single payment of \u20ac170.94, making each box \u20ac28.49, plus shipping costs.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"nihonboxapril2020_1\"<\/p>\n

So let\u2019s move on to the types of items you could get in your box - or when 9 months of them just show up on your doorstep! So I have split the items up into different categories. So up first, I have the shirts that arrived. Back last October, Nihon Box got into the spooky vibe and included some Death Note merch - including this very cool looking T-shirt. Everything is official merch, so you can imagine the excitement seeing something like this included. The sizes are pretty accurate, well made and a nice vibrant print as well. Then we have the Naruto shirt that came in May\u2019s box. Followed by the ever popular Kimetsu no Yaiba Demon Slayer shirt that was included in August\u2019 box. Nihon Box tends to switch it up every couple of months as to when they include shirts.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"nihonboxapril2020_2\"<\/p>\n

Next up is the plushie section of the review. So over the course of 9 months, they included plushies from various popular animes in just 6 of those months. We have both large, medium and small plushies, from classic shows including Death Note, DragonBall Z and Fairy Tail. As well as more recent shows, including Fire Force, The Promised Neverland and That Time I Was Reincarnated As A Slime. It was only in May\u2019s box, was there a possibility of getting either a Majin Buu or a Goku Daruma shaped plush. The rest of the character plushies were main cast or lead characters from their respective shows. For me, the Rimuru slime plush was the crowning jewel from this plush haul.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"nihonboxapril2020_3\"<\/p>\n

Next up we have the everyday items, which include items for your lunch, some chopsticks and that all important toothbrush for your oral care. So we got a City Hunter lunch box, from a rather old anime from the late 80s and early 90s. Followed by a GTO Great Teacher Onizuka tumbler, from another classic anime from the year 2000. We also got two sets of chopsticks, from just a classic red pair with rabbits decorating the handles and a pair of cute Pikachu ones that come with their own carry case. This item was available in two different designs back last November, the other design was the classic Pok\u00e9ball print. April\u2019s box included a large Cardcaptor Sakura melamine spoon, the perfect size to eat your ramen with. May\u2019s box held a Pok\u00e9mon kozara plate, which is meant for more decoration than use. It\u2019s roughly the size of your palm and features both Pikachu and Wingull on a traditional wave shaped art pattern. And lastly, we have a single My Neighbour Totoro bamboo toothbrush.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"nihonboxapril2020_4\"<\/p>\n

This image is more of the miscellaneous items that were included. I have to admit, I do really love this Gengar face cloth that was included in October's box. Great quality, fully licensed and straight from the Pok\u00e9mon store! We also received two laminated posters, from two of the most popular and iconic animes - Naruto & Bleach. We even received a small acrylic card from DragonBall, with 50 character designs available. It will take you quite some time to collect them all if you\u2019re a massive fan. They can pop out from the card and stand freely, well detailed and just a nice small item to have on your shelf. Every few months, if you have a continuous subscription, the lovely people over at Nihon Box throw in the odd loyalty bonus item. Mine included a Kirby pen, a Re: Zero blindbox keychain and a Mario Shell key cover.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"nihonboxapril2020_5\"<\/p>\n

This is turning into a super long review! The next couple of items come from numerous shows and games from a number of genres. First up we have a frisbee with Kirby's glorious face printed on the front, for all the summer fun we all hope to have this year. We also have a One Piece clear file, from the Wano Kuni arc of the show when they were all dressed as samurai. We also have a Shonen Jump Vinyl case, which you could have gotten in three designs including Dragon Ball, One Piece and Naruro. It could also be used as a pencil case, or even a mask case during this pandemic. Moving on we got a Naruto Shippuden Tower Stand, which is quite handy to store all your pens and pencils in so they are always at the ready. I also got a pair of Dragon Ball Tabi socks, which are the iconic socks from Japan you always see when they wear sandals. It\u2019s a sock that just separates your big toe for the rest of them. Quite comfy when you get used to the feeling. Something you don\u2019t see very often included in subscription boxes, is Kingdom Hearts merch. Of which we got a can badge mystery box pin in July's box, with 13 to collect. I also got another Demon Slayer bull clip plush, from the same collection and even the same character that I received in a past SoKawaii box. Our Pok\u00e9mon item was a coaster\/strap, which featured one of 6 first generation Pok\u00e9mon in a pixel art design. Of which I actually got Mew! The last item in this picture was a Kokoro Basket mascot keychain.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"nihonboxapril2020_6\"<\/p>\n

Now we are on to the food items! Now there have been a number of substitutions due to expired dates on original packets, so not every item I received was intended. I have tried quite a few of these items since, some have been well a bit hit and miss. The Animal Crossing chocolate egg had melted at some point over storage and travel, so it was very marbled by the time it got to me. The chocolate was very disappointing, but the figure was rather cute. It\u2019s Japan\u2019s version of a Kinder Egg really, but with lower quality chocolate. The Sakura flavoured green tea came with no instructions as to how to prepare it and since arriving, it has actually gone out of date. If they included a simple english translation for how to prepare it, it would have been very useful. I\u2019ve yet to try the Pok\u00e9mon snacks, all I know is that they are supposed to be a chocolate snack. I have also yet to try the big bag of Matcha Okoshi, which are green tea flavoured puffed rice cakes.<\/span><\/p>\n

The substitutes so far have been really delicious, from the mini sugar coated sponge bites - which were quite dry but would be great in a little desert with some cream and jam. The soybean flour and cane sugar sticks had an interesting flavour and texture but were very pleasant to snack on. Ultimately it was the matcha mochi choco that caught my attention. With a layer of green tea chocolate, that encased a mochi inside all in a small bite. It wasn't overpowering in any way and was the type of treat that made you consume it over time and not in one sitting. Kind of perfect for sharing really.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"nihonboxapril2020_7\"<\/p>\n

This image is just a collection of a number of the traditional Japanese items that are included amongst every Nihon Box. From what I would deem as soba cups or green tea cups, which most often are not made with any handles. A Daruma, which I have just painted in the right eye of. I advise reading up on the history of this item as its actually quite sweet and interesting.<\/span><\/p>\n

We also have items which you would more than likely see at summer festivals in Japan, from a kitsune mask to a small paper balloon in the shape of a fish known as a Kingyo Kamif\u00fasen. There is also a traditional wind chime included, in the shape of a fish. Which would be lovely to have in front of a door or window when the summer breeze comes through. There is also a small cat figurine, known as a Maneki Neko Mokiji, decorated in maple leaves to celebrate the Autumn season. And a Washi Ningy\u00f3, which is a cute little figurine doll that was handmade from Japanese washi and kimono fabric. This beautiful little figure comes in her own display case and is just so precious to look upon. Alongside the two Ukiyo-e Sakura postcards, that are just another item that best represent the old Japanese historic art style.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"nihonboxapril2020_8\"<\/p>\n

These next few items include a decorative plate and insulated lunch bag from The Promised Neverland. A show that has been well represented this year in Nihon Box, as we also received a plushie of Emma. We also have a decorative Spirited Away hand fan known as a Uchiwa, which will come in very handy during the hot weather. Another authentic Made in Japan item is this Usagi tray, which can be used to hold your meal or sweets. Much like you were being served in authentic Japanese restaurant or ryokan.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"nihonboxapril2020_9\"<\/p>\n

Oooh now we are on to the high quality stuff here! Time for the figures, the best selling point about this service for me. Now not every month had a figure included, as they were sometimes switched out for a large plush - such as Ryuk in October and Rimuru in August. The rest of the months you are almost guaranteed a figure no matter what! So my new pride and joy on my shelf is the Asuka Langley figure from Evangelion from last July's box. That month gave you the chance of getting one of the four figures available in the Evangelion Shin Gekijouban figure range that was being released to mark what was the upcoming release of the fourth and final film - Rebuild of Evangelion. You could have gotten either Asuka, Rei, Kaworu or Evangelion Unit 13!<\/span><\/p>\n

We also have a Pok\u00e9mon ReMent figure from the Terrarium Volume 4 series, which had 6 to collect including Gengar, Totodile, Moltres, Slowpoke, Umbreon, as well as Pikachu sleeping on a Mareep.<\/span><\/p>\n

Last April's box included the 2020 Sakura Miku figure, which was brand new at the time. We also received a Kirby figure from the Solar Swing Collection, which was also featured in a SoKawaii box last year. Thankfully I received the other version that was available in this box, so my collection is now complete. Very cute item to have, which swings side to side when sunlight hits the small solar panel on the front of the figure base.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"nihonboxapril2020_9\" \"nihonboxapril2020_10\"<\/p>\n

We are finally onto our last three items! December\u2019s box included the Yami Yugi figurine from the Noodle Stopper collection. Although they are small scale statues, their poses allow them to sit freely on shelf corners - or indeed on the lid of your cup ramen as intended. For the size of the figure itself, its actually really well detailed and I adore it! From the same Noodle Stopper collection, comes the InuYasha figure from September's box. This was done for promotion of the latest InuYasha anime that was released last year - Yashahime: Princess Half-Demon.<\/span><\/p>\n

And last but not least, we have the Cardcaptor Sakura: Special Rocket Beat Figure! Which was only recently released at the time this box was filled, so I am super lucky that this figure was included in the box at all!<\/span><\/p>\n

Nihon Box always does their best to follow the latest anime trends as well as finding items from fan favorite shows in order to always appeal to their customer base. With items from classic shows such as InuYasha, GTO and Cardcaptor Sakura, to the newer franchises including The Promised Neverland and Demon Slayer. They not only source out some decent quality figures, but also to make sure that each month their box represents another unique aspect of Japan - from its food, to its culture, art, history and beliefs. It\u2019s a well rounded box, for both anime fans and cultural fans. For me, they are just a step above the likes of SoKawaii box just for their variety in products and value for money in the items you receive. Although SoKawaii are currently more reliable when it comes to shipping, it\u2019s simply only the side effects of the pandemic that has put them both on an even playing field. End of the day, I highly enjoy both of these subscriptions and don't see myself cancelling either of them anything soon.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2018Back To School\u2019<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Welcome back folks, to another Nihon Box unboxing!<\/span><\/p>\n

This time we are taking a look back on what was available in April\u2019s box, as even with Japan Post resuming normal service the mail is still coming in rather slow, with each box taking several weeks to get here. April\u2019s theme focused on going \u2018Back To School\u2019, so we have a rather interesting mix of items that are kind of associated with that. So let\u2019s get started.<\/span><\/p>\n

Nihon Box is a Japanese monthly subscription service that handpicks at least 6 items each month that are almost exclusive to Japan and ships them straight to your door. Their items are a mixture of Otaku Anime related merchandise and figures, as well as traditional Japanese items, from sweets to tableware. All of this is available to subscribe to for what I find a very affordable price each month.<\/span><\/p>\n

Like SoKawaii, the more months you pay upfront the cheaper the price for individual boxes will be.<\/span> https:\/\/www.nihonbox.com\/en<\/u><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

Monthly is \u20ac29.99 plus shipping costs<\/span><\/p>\n

3 Months is a single payment of \u20ac86.97, making each box \u20ac28.99, plus shipping costs.<\/span><\/p>\n

6 Months is a single payment of \u20ac170.94, making each box \u20ac28.49, plus shipping costs.<\/span><\/p>\n

Here is a link to their FAQ page, just in case you\u2019re wondering if they ship to your country:<\/span> https:\/\/www.nihonbox.com\/en\/nihonbox\/faq<\/u><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

\"nihonboxapril2021_1\"<\/p>\n

Now on to our first two items, both of which are from the GTO: Great Teacher Onizuka franchise. A manga series that first debuted back in the late 90\u2019s and has had a number of adaptations over the years, including both anime and live action dramas. The series follows a young man named Onizuka who decides to become a teacher in order to attract women. He soon discovers he has a conscience and instead devotes himself to becoming the best teacher, thus using whatever means necessary to break through and help each one of his students that others have given up on. It genuinely sounds like a good show, much like Assassination Classroom - just minus the indestructible creature for a teacher. So in this box, we were lucky to receive a nice sized shopping bag and a set of four corkboard coasters. Each with various illustrations from the show. I would imagine that this series doesn\u2019t have much merch nowadays, seeing as the last adaptation was back in 2014.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"nihonboxapril2021_2\"<\/p>\n

We also got a small stationary item in this month's box, with a Doraemon Sakura themed pen. Doraemon is perhaps one of the most iconic anime characters in Japan, perhaps more so than Pikachu. This blue alien cat has been a part of generations of people's childhoods since the 1970\u2019s. Its initial manga ran for 26 years! The anime series is still ongoing even today. So its quite nice to be able to get an item that represents a show with that much history attached to it. I mean this box is supposed to be focussed on Back to School, yet this pen will be the only piece of stationary included.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"nihonboxapril2021_3\"<\/p>\n

Moving on, we have both a Japanese snack item and a good luck cat. Our snack for April\u2019s box was the Karint\u00f3 Matcha Milk Flavor pastry. They are a traditional Japanese snack food. Sweet and deep-fried, it is made primarily of flour, yeast, and brown sugar. With this version having a matcha milk taste to it. I was hoping to try this one for myself, but unfortunately it was out of date by the time it got to me. The joys of a slow postal service -.-\u2019<\/span><\/p>\n

On the right is a miniature black cat figure, known as a Maneki-neko Sakura. Over in Japan, the sakura (cherry blossom) season is associated with the start of a new school year. Many schools in Japan actually resemble what you would see in anime, in fact it is pretty common to see sakura trees planted at the front entrances of schools. This little figure is also meant to attract good luck and wealth, as this one is seen lifting its right paw.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"nihonboxapril2021_4\"<\/p>\n

We are now on to a rather large item that came in this Aprils\u2019 box, and that is a figure of Y\u00faji Itadori from the popular anime this year - Jujutsu Kaisen. Now I am certain you have seen plenty of posts and merch going around these past six months or so about this anime. Although I have yet to sit down and watch an episode myself, it seems to have created a rather large fanbase. It\u2019s the latest supernatural series that seems to be pulling in a new audience for Weekly Sh\u00f3nen Jump, and is also available to read now over on the Shonen Jump manga app. With almost 150 chapters available to read now for just \u20ac1.99 a month. Coming back now to the figure, its rather large and is quite sturdy. All you have to do is sit the figure on the base and that's it. He comes in what I would call a \u2018ready to fight\u2019 pose, which I assume is his usual stance in the show. Its fairly well detailed and built, it was also added into this box just days after it was released in Japan. So its a fairly decent exclusive for a subscription box, its just freshly out in stores!<\/span><\/p>\n

\"nihonboxapril2021_5\"<\/p>\n

We are now onto our final item, one that is sure to cushion-the-blow for fans of these reviews! What school themed box would be complete, if it didn't include Koro Sensei? Many of you must be aware of the yellow, perverted octopus from Assassination Classroom. A fantastic show and manga, if you have never heard of it before. The plot follows a group of students, who have become outcasts in their own school due to either their behaviour or failing grades. An opportunity is presented to them to change their fortune, if they participate in trying to assassinate their new teacher - a terrifying and indestructible mutant by the name of Koro sensei. If they fail, the entire Earth will be destroyed by the time they graduate high school. It\u2019s well worth checking out, either the manga or even the anime. So the merch we got from the show is infact a small pillow of Koro senseis\u2019 head! Small, soft and round, it acts as a nice head cushion or just a simple throw pillow.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"nihonboxapril2021_6\"<\/p>\n

So there we have it everyone, that was April\u2019s Nihon Box. Did you like it? If so, comment down below or tag us on our social media to let us know what was your favourite item and if you have gotten your own subscription. Nihon Box always does their best to follow the latest anime trends as well as finding items from fan favorite shows in order to always appeal to their customer base. With items from classic shows such as GTO and Doraemon, to the newer franchises including Assassination Classroom and Jujutsu Kaisen. They not only source out some decent quality figures and plushies, but also to make sure that each month their box represents another unique aspect of Japan \u2013 from its food, to its culture, art, history and beliefs. It\u2019s a well rounded box, for both anime fans and cultural fans. This box\u2019s theme was \u201cBack to School\u201d, and each pamphlet in every box also includes a detailed section called \u201cDiscover Japan\u201d. This month\u2019s topic was about School life in Japan and how it is different from perhaps western countries. It\u2019s details such as these that make this subscription box so unique and talked about.<\/span><\/p>\n

Hello everyone! Hope you are all keeping well, I have a massive haul to talk about today as last week I received 9 months worth of my Nihon Box subscriptions all of a sudden on my doorstep!<\/span><\/p>\n

As you guys are aware, I normally review the SoKawaii box each month. However that isn\u2019t the only subscription service I\u2019m with. Back in March 2020 I did a review of my very first Nihon Box, sadly when the pandemic started my boxes were stuck in their warehouse in Japan due to limited postal options. Almost a year has passed since my last box, when all of a sudden I came home one day to find two big FedEx boxes in my sitting room. The lovely people over at Nihon Box must have decided to rebox everyone's orders that they had been waiting on for so long and send them first class! So that way their warehouse would be empty of all back orders from 2020. To make it even more amazing, they had replaced any out of date food items with replacement ones. Such attention to detail and top class warehouse operatives too, as everything was packed with care. Not a single item was damaged, and there were a number of breakable items inside! I have to say, that team deserves more than just a round of applause!<\/span><\/p>\n

I\u2019ve known about this service for quite some time now, as I\u2019ve seen several unboxing videos from Doug D\u2019Marco on YouTube. Check out his channel if you can, he reviews several different subscription boxes and gives good, honest reviews. (<\/span>https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/user\/Angelraider78<\/u><\/span><\/a>)<\/span><\/p>\n

Much like SoKawaii, Nihon Box is a Japanese monthly subscription service that handpicks at least 6 items each month that are almost exclusive to Japan and ships them straight to your door.

\"nihonboxapril2020_7\"<\/p>\n

This image is just a collection of a number of the traditional Japanese items that are included amongst every Nihon Box. From what I would deem as soba cups or green tea cups, which most often are not made with any handles. A Daruma, which I have just painted in the right eye of. I advise reading up on the history of this item as its actually quite sweet and interesting.<\/span><\/p>\n

We also have items which you would more than likely see at summer festivals in Japan, from a kitsune mask to a small paper balloon in the shape of a fish known as a Kingyo Kamif\u00fasen. There is also a traditional wind chime included, in the shape of a fish. Which would be lovely to have in front of a door or window when the summer breeze comes through. There is also a small cat figurine, known as a Maneki Neko Mokiji, decorated in maple leaves to celebrate the Autumn season. And a Washi Ningy\u00f3, which is a cute little figurine doll that was handmade from Japanese washi and kimono fabric. This beautiful little figure comes in her own display case and is just so precious to look upon. Alongside the two Ukiyo-e Sakura postcards, that are just another item that best represent the old Japanese historic art style.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"nihonboxapril2020_8\"<\/p>\n

These next few items include a decorative plate and insulated lunch bag from The Promised Neverland. A show that has been well represented this year in Nihon Box, as we also received a plushie of Emma. We also have a decorative Spirited Away hand fan known as a Uchiwa, which will come in very handy during the hot weather. Another authentic Made in Japan item is this Usagi tray, which can be used to hold your meal or sweets. Much like you were being served in authentic Japanese restaurant or ryokan.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"nihonboxapril2020_9\"<\/p>\n

Oooh now we are on to the high quality stuff here! Time for the figures, the best selling point about this service for me. Now not every month had a figure included, as they were sometimes switched out for a large plush - such as Ryuk in October and Rimuru in August. The rest of the months you are almost guaranteed a figure no matter what! So my new pride and joy on my shelf is the Asuka Langley figure from Evangelion from last July's box. That month gave you the chance of getting one of the four figures available in the Evangelion Shin Gekijouban figure range that was being released to mark what was the upcoming release of the fourth and final film - Rebuild of Evangelion. You could have gotten either Asuka, Rei, Kaworu or Evangelion Unit 13!<\/span><\/p>\n

We also have a Pok\u00e9mon ReMent figure from the Terrarium Volume 4 series, which had 6 to collect including Gengar, Totodile, Moltres, Slowpoke, Umbreon, as well as Pikachu sleeping on a Mareep.<\/span><\/p>\n

Last April's box included the 2020 Sakura Miku figure, which was brand new at the time. We also received a Kirby figure from the Solar Swing Collection, which was also featured in a SoKawaii box last year. Thankfully I received the other version that was available in this box, so my collection is now complete. Very cute item to have, which swings side to side when sunlight hits the small solar panel on the front of the figure base.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"nihonboxapril2020_9\" \"nihonboxapril2020_10\"<\/p>\n

We are finally onto our last three items! December\u2019s box included the Yami Yugi figurine from the Noodle Stopper collection. Although they are small scale statues, their poses allow them to sit freely on shelf corners - or indeed on the lid of your cup ramen as intended. For the size of the figure itself, its actually really well detailed and I adore it! From the same Noodle Stopper collection, comes the InuYasha figure from September's box. This was done for promotion of the latest InuYasha anime that was released last year - Yashahime: Princess Half-Demon.<\/span><\/p>\n

And last but not least, we have the Cardcaptor Sakura: Special Rocket Beat Figure! Which was only recently released at the time this box was filled, so I am super lucky that this figure was included in the box at all!<\/span><\/p>\n

Nihon Box always does their best to follow the latest anime trends as well as finding items from fan favorite shows in order to always appeal to their customer base. With items from classic shows such as InuYasha, GTO and Cardcaptor Sakura, to the newer franchises including The Promised Neverland and Demon Slayer. They not only source out some decent quality figures, but also to make sure that each month their box represents another unique aspect of Japan - from its food, to its culture, art, history and beliefs. It\u2019s a well rounded box, for both anime fans and cultural fans. For me, they are just a step above the likes of SoKawaii box just for their variety in products and value for money in the items you receive. Although SoKawaii are currently more reliable when it comes to shipping, it\u2019s simply only the side effects of the pandemic that has put them both on an even playing field. End of the day, I highly enjoy both of these subscriptions and don't see myself cancelling either of them anything soon.<\/span><\/p>\n

Hello everyone! Hope you are all keeping well, I have a massive haul to talk about today as last week I received 9 months worth of my Nihon Box subscriptions all of a sudden on my doorstep!<\/span><\/p>\n

As you guys are aware, I normally review the SoKawaii box each month. However that isn\u2019t the only subscription service I\u2019m with. Back in March 2020 I did a review of my very first Nihon Box, sadly when the pandemic started my boxes were stuck in their warehouse in Japan due to limited postal options.

6 Months is a single payment of \u20ac170.94, making each box \u20ac28.49, plus shipping costs.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"nihonboxapril2020_1\"<\/p>\n

So let\u2019s move on to the types of items you could get in your box - or when 9 months of them just show up on your doorstep! So I have split the items up into different categories. So up first, I have the shirts that arrived. Back last October, Nihon Box got into the spooky vibe and included some Death Note merch - including this very cool looking T-shirt. Everything is official merch, so you can imagine the excitement seeing something like this included. The sizes are pretty accurate, well made and a nice vibrant print as well. Then we have the Naruto shirt that came in May\u2019s box. Followed by the ever popular Kimetsu no Yaiba Demon Slayer shirt that was included in August\u2019 box. Nihon Box tends to switch it up every couple of months as to when they include shirts.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"nihonboxapril2020_2\"<\/p>\n

Next up is the plushie section of the review. So over the course of 9 months, they included plushies from various popular animes in just 6 of those months. We have both large, medium and small plushies, from classic shows including Death Note, DragonBall Z and Fairy Tail. As well as more recent shows, including Fire Force, The Promised Neverland and That Time I Was Reincarnated As A Slime. It was only in May\u2019s box, was there a possibility of getting either a Majin Buu or a Goku Daruma shaped plush. The rest of the character plushies were main cast or lead characters from their respective shows. For me, the Rimuru slime plush was the crowning jewel from this plush haul.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"nihonboxapril2020_3\"<\/p>\n

Next up we have the everyday items, which include items for your lunch, some chopsticks and that all important toothbrush for your oral care. So we got a City Hunter lunch box, from a rather old anime from the late 80s and early 90s. Followed by a GTO Great Teacher Onizuka tumbler, from another classic anime from the year 2000. We also got two sets of chopsticks, from just a classic red pair with rabbits decorating the handles and a pair of cute Pikachu ones that come with their own carry case. This item was available in two different designs back last November, the other design was the classic Pok\u00e9ball print. April\u2019s box included a large Cardcaptor Sakura melamine spoon, the perfect size to eat your ramen with. May\u2019s box held a Pok\u00e9mon kozara plate, which is meant for more decoration than use. It\u2019s roughly the size of your palm and features both Pikachu and Wingull on a traditional wave shaped art pattern. And lastly, we have a single My Neighbour Totoro bamboo toothbrush.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"nihonboxapril2020_4\"<\/p>\n

This image is more of the miscellaneous items that were included. I have to admit, I do really love this Gengar face cloth that was included in October's box. Great quality, fully licensed and straight from the Pok\u00e9mon store! We also received two laminated posters, from two of the most popular and iconic animes - Naruto & Bleach. We even received a small acrylic card from DragonBall, with 50 character designs available. It will take you quite some time to collect them all if you\u2019re a massive fan. They can pop out from the card and stand freely, well detailed and just a nice small item to have on your shelf. Every few months, if you have a continuous subscription, the lovely people over at Nihon Box throw in the odd loyalty bonus item. Mine included a Kirby pen, a Re: Zero blindbox keychain and a Mario Shell key cover.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"nihonboxapril2020_5\"<\/p>\n

This is turning into a super long review! The next couple of items come from numerous shows and games from a number of genres. First up we have a frisbee with Kirby's glorious face printed on the front, for all the summer fun we all hope to have this year. We also have a One Piece clear file, from the Wano Kuni arc of the show when they were all dressed as samurai. We also have a Shonen Jump Vinyl case, which you could have gotten in three designs including Dragon Ball, One Piece and Naruro. It could also be used as a pencil case, or even a mask case during this pandemic. Moving on we got a Naruto Shippuden Tower Stand, which is quite handy to store all your pens and pencils in so they are always at the ready. I also got a pair of Dragon Ball Tabi socks, which are the iconic socks from Japan you always see when they wear sandals. It\u2019s a sock that just separates your big toe for the rest of them. Quite comfy when you get used to the feeling. Something you don\u2019t see very often included in subscription boxes, is Kingdom Hearts merch. Of which we got a can badge mystery box pin in July's box, with 13 to collect. I also got another Demon Slayer bull clip plush, from the same collection and even the same character that I received in a past SoKawaii box. Our Pok\u00e9mon item was a coaster\/strap, which featured one of 6 first generation Pok\u00e9mon in a pixel art design. Of which I actually got Mew! The last item in this picture was a Kokoro Basket mascot keychain.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"nihonboxapril2020_6\"<\/p>\n

Now we are on to the food items! Now there have been a number of substitutions due to expired dates on original packets, so not every item I received was intended. I have tried quite a few of these items since, some have been well a bit hit and miss. The Animal Crossing chocolate egg had melted at some point over storage and travel, so it was very marbled by the time it got to me. The chocolate was very disappointing, but the figure was rather cute. It\u2019s Japan\u2019s version of a Kinder Egg really, but with lower quality chocolate. The Sakura flavoured green tea came with no instructions as to how to prepare it and since arriving, it has actually gone out of date. If they included a simple english translation for how to prepare it, it would have been very useful. I\u2019ve yet to try the Pok\u00e9mon snacks, all I know is that they are supposed to be a chocolate snack. I have also yet to try the big bag of Matcha Okoshi, which are green tea flavoured puffed rice cakes.<\/span><\/p>\n

The substitutes so far have been really delicious, from the mini sugar coated sponge bites - which were quite dry but would be great in a little desert with some cream and jam. The soybean flour and cane sugar sticks had an interesting flavour and texture but were very pleasant to snack on. Ultimately it was the matcha mochi choco that caught my attention. With a layer of green tea chocolate, that encased a mochi inside all in a small bite. It wasn't overpowering in any way and was the type of treat that made you consume it over time and not in one sitting. Kind of perfect for sharing really.<\/span><\/p>\n
