What is "Sumikko Gurashi"?

A character brand born in 2012 with the keyword "It's a place where I feel relaxed." The characters and stories, which are not just cute but also slightly negative and surreal, have gained popularity across a wide range of age groups. When boarding a train, the corner seats are filled first, and when going to a cafe, people want to secure a corner seat as much as possible... The "Sumikko" characters embody these feelings that many Japanese people have. ▼Learn More https://www.san-x.co.jp/ja/characters/sumikkogurashi/
