[Fukushima] Outstanding popularity among women! Let's get "Momorin" goods, which have many secret male fans.

Momorin , a rabbit with a warm mood, is a promotional character for tourism in Fukushima City. In 2014, her rival "Black Momorin" also appeared, and both of them (?) are active in tourist pamphlets and events in Fukushima City.

What you can't miss is the wide variety of "Momorin" goods. Although it is a character goods, it also has a good taste. We have picked out items that you will want to keep close by.

Why "Momorin"? Why a rabbit?

As anyone who loves Fukushima, even if you're not a Fukushima citizen, probably already knows that ``peaches'' are peaches, a specialty fruit that Fukushima is proud of. And ``Rin'' also refers to apple, so it's not a Miporin-like nickname ending.

So why a rabbit? There is also a good reason for this.

"Momorin" is not an ordinary rabbit. The motif is the rabbit-like shape of snow that appears on the slopes of Azuma Kofuji when the snow melts, commonly known as the ``Yuki Usagi'' (also known as the ``Seed Rabbit'')

When the citizens of Fukushima see this "snow rabbit" on the mountainside, they know that spring has come! That's what I feel. "Momorin" is a special rabbit that has such an exciting feeling.

By the way, Momorin's profile published by the Fukushima City Tourism and Convention Association is as follows.

Now, let's introduce the special goods of the character "Momorin" who is full of love for Fukushima!

Postcard

Postcards are the standard Yuru-chara goods. "Momorin" has a wide variety of postcards. There are watercolors, photos, and glossy finishes, and each one costs a few tens of yen, so it's fun to choose from them! There are even 3D cards available, although they are a bit expensive.

Lunch bag 620 yen Color variations available

It's made of canvas and has sturdy stitching, so it's useful not only for holding lunch boxes, but for a variety of other occasions.

The design is simple, so even adults can hold it without feeling uncomfortable, and it's a durable and easy-to-use bag.

Clear file 60 yen~ Many types available

This is another clear file that is well-known for character goods, and "Momorin" clear files come in various types and are reasonably priced starting at 60 yen each!

The clear file of "Momorin★Black Momorin" in the photo costs 110 yen. In fact, the black momorin design is also very popular.

Memo pad 110 yen 6 colors available

``This is very popular,'' said the lady at the tourist information center. This memo pad is compact and easy to use, measuring 9.5 cm wide x 8.5 cm high.

Each of the six colors has an illustration of Momorin in a different pose, but the most popular one is the one on the left of the photo, soaking in the hot springs. The back cover is a back view of the picture on the cover, which is also cute. It's fun to have all the types, and they're perfect as small souvenirs.

Fukushima notebook Momorin version 1080 yen

It's already a new year, but are you thinking of keeping a diary now? But I dare to recommend this!

There are a variety of covers for the Fukushima notebook, and you can choose the one you like, but the design of the "Momorin" notebook is especially nice.

If you buy one book, you can enjoy two types of covers by replacing the front and back.

A little explanation of the Fukushima Notebook itself. The yearly edition of the diary is published every year, and the calendar section says things like, ``Yabuki Town's hometown tax return gift includes a life-sized display mask of Tiger Mask,'' and ``Miharu Town's municipal bus has a name called ``Saito Saito.'' It's packed with rare Fukushima stories like "There's a bus stop!" If you read this every day, you will definitely become a Fukushima connoisseur.

There are plenty of gravure coverage article pages, so you can enjoy reading it as a guidebook, and it also comes with a large B3 map. Moreover, this place

The back side of the image is a divine project to introduce all the sweets of Fukushima's 57 municipalities.

With so much content, it's worth having one book in addition to your schedule book.

It's fun to collect every year's "Momorin" covers.

In addition, there are various other "Momorin" goods such as stuffed animals, ballpoint pens, towels, eco bags, and straps. New products are appearing all the time, so please check them out.

How can I get “Momorin” goods?

You can always purchase "Momorin" goods at the Fukushima City Tourist Information Center located at the west exit of JR Fukushima Station (note that this is not the information center at the east exit!). You can also get new information about "Momorin" at the same time.

While many character goods are expensive, all of the ``Momorin'' goods are reasonably priced. That makes me want to support them even more. Momorin, do your best!

``Momorin'' is the main character of Komukom, a facility for children, and is also used in various facilities in Fukushima City, such as ``Momorin Cafe,'' a limited-time cafe where you can enjoy special sweets, and ``Momorin Rental Bicycle.'' I'm at the place.

In addition, when you register your marriage in Fukushima City, you will be presented with a souvenir on that day as ``Momorin Anniversary,'' and there are also ``Ikiiki Momorin Exercises'' for the elderly.

And, good news for those of you (I'm sure there are, right?) who have fallen in love with the charm of "Momorin" and want to become "Momorin" already!
