Are you looking for a nice gift for Valentine’s Day? If so, you might want to add these very lovely and fun Usamaru うさまる mugs to your shopping list!
Usamaru うさまる is a very popular LINE app sticker character with seven years of history! More accurately, the white one is Usamaru うさまる and the pink one is Usako-chan うさこちゃん, Usamaru’s friend!
As you might have heard, competition for sales on Valentine’s Day in Japan is really fierce. Almost every department store holds a big special event which takes up an entire floor. There are many Valentine’s Day gift choices. However, there are two reasons which make this mug, うさまる メープルナッツショコラ〜チェンジングマグセット〜 Usamaru mēpuru nattsu shokora – chengingu magu setto- a must-buy item.
When you pour a hot drink...
The first reason is its fun trick. If you pour a hot drink into the Usamaru うさまる mug, the pattern will change! As you can see from the picture, when nothing is in the mug, the print on the mug depicts Usamaru うさまるand Usako-chan hugging with small flowers around them.
Yes, it’s already cute enough. However, when you pour a hot drink into it, the cute hearts will appear!
For this version, if you pour a hot drink, coffee bean patterns will appear, and the English phrase “Let’s take a coffee break!” becomes the Japanese phrase ハグッッhagu. As you can guess from the pronunciation, of course, it means “Hug”! Also, take a good look at the mug on the right in the picture above. The coffee beans in the barrel will transform into Usamaru うさまる!
Cute and fun. That’s one of the reasons why this can be a really good candidate for your Valentine’s day gift!
