Kuroko no Basket - Hand cushions by Bandai (2014)

Kuroko no Basket is not a 90's anime but is the most popular after Slam Dunk around this sport, so I checked it and became a fan of the series.

The Generation of Miracles has a lot to carry over their shoulders...


In 2014 Bandai launched a series of plushes based on the series with an interesting twist: These are meant to be used as hand cushions under your wrist while using a mouse, in order to get more comfortable using it. This can be seen in the back of the tag:

I've never seen so much information in the back of an UFO plush! Most of these are just indications on how to take care of the plush and not to give it to children under 15...


There were 4 different sets from the series but since they were launched almost around the same time, I'll put all them in this same post:

You can identify the set by looking at the character tag:


Tetsuya Kuroko - Our main protagonist. He was the Phantom Sixth Player of the Generation of Miracles at Teikō Junior High. He specialises in misdirection and passes. He now plays as a regular with Seirin with the goal of bringing the team and Taiga Kagami to the top of Japan.

Taiga Kagami: The ace player of Seirin High. Kagami has exceptional basketball talents and has been called "The Miracle who did not become one of the Miracles".

Ryota Kise - Ace of Kaijo High. He is well known for his copying abilities, as he can copy any techniques he sees, often with more power than the original. He also works as a model.

Aomine Daiki - He currently plays as the ace and power forward of Tōō Academy. He and Kagami are sworn rivals after their clashes in the Interhigh preliminaries and in the Winter Cup

Takao Kuzanari - is Shutoku's first year point guard. He is Kuroko's natural enemy, as he has the Hawk Eye and is able to see Kuroko even if he uses his misdirection.

As a side note, this plush is larger than all other ones since the character is the tallest in the series.



Tatsuya Himuro - He is Yōsen's second year shooting guard. He was Kagami's brother figure back in the States.

And the fourth and final set only has 2 characters, which I only have one...

Seijuro Akashi - He was the captain of Generation of Miracles. He is the only person that the Generation of Miracles knuckles under. He is now the point guard and captain of Rakuzan High.

Makoto Hanamiya - is the coach and captain of Kirisaki Daīchi High and is one of the Uncrowned Kings. He is known for his foul and underhanded play and the cause of Kiyoshi's knee injury last year.
