Just like a seifuku I have wanted a Japanese school bag for a long time. Im currently working on my Natsuo Maki cosplay for AnimeNext this year . It was the perfect opportunity to convince myself to buy the school bag! I originally wanted to buy the bag from Jlist/jbox but when I went to buy it the one I wanted (the cheaper one) was no longer available. (it is available now and the links for the bag I purchased and others I have found will be linked below).
I decided to purchase my Japanese school bag from Amazon. I placed my order on April 6th and my bag arrived May 7th. I was provided with a tracking number. I can already say that I love this bag the only problem I have is how long it took to arrive. My bag sat in china ready to ship for over 28 days! I am really upset about that. I ordered a package from Japan(which I will do a review on later) that came in less time than this bag!
Besides the shipping, the quality of the bag itself is great! I was so pleased with how true to the picture it was! It arrived in a grey post bag and it was sealed in a plastic bag. The bag was brand new , no marks or dirt!

Hiya! I was wondering if you use this bag other than just for cosplay? I ordered a similar one off of ebay and I want to use it for both cosplay and to use as a school bag/purse at college ^.^
ReplyDeleteI haven't broken it in yet. I plan on doing that this weekend at the convention but I would say it's definitely durable for everyday use! I think that's a great Idea to use it as a purse/ college bag! I put a lot of books in my bag to stretch it out and it holds the weight really nicely and it doesn't hurt your shoulder! I might actually try using it during the upcoming semester! :) thanks for commenting!
