Gakken Co., Ltd. (Shinagawa, Tokyo / President and Representative Director: Tatsuya Nanjo), a group company of Gakken Holdings Co., Ltd. (Shinagawa, Tokyo / President and Representative Director: Hiroaki Miyahara), released "Love Character vol.58" on June 11, 2026.

"Love Character" is a magazine where you can play and learn with Sanrio Characters.

This issue of "Love Character" is a sticker special! It is packed with plans to have fun with Sanrio Characters using stickers, both in the appendix and throughout the magazine.

★ Separate volume appendix: "Shaka-Puni Stickers & Sticker Glue"

The highlight is the separate volume appendix! Popular characters such as Hello Kitty, Cinnamoroll, My Melody, Kuromi, Pompompurin, and Wish Me Mell are included in a set with stickers and sticker glue.

There are two types of luxurious 3D stickers.

One is a "Shaka-Kira" sticker containing sparkling parts. It's a very cute sticker featuring Sanrio Characters wearing cat ears.

The other is a "Puni-Puni" sticker to celebrate Pompompurin's 30th anniversary together! The squishy texture and the soft illustrations of Sanrio Characters wearing matching berets are a perfect match.

The "Sticker Glue" allows you to create your own stickers and offers various ways to use it. Apply the liquid to stickers, let it dry for a while, and then stick it to create reusable stickers or sticky notes. Find your own way to use it for various play activities. It can also restore the adhesion of your favorite stickers. Of course, if you don't let it dry, it can be used as regular glue.

All of these are special designs that can only be obtained with "Love Character."

★ Let's play with Sanrio Characters in the main magazine too!

● Super luxurious insert appendix!

➀ Original Deco Card Memo

Insert appendix ① is the "Original Deco Card Memo." You can create your own original deco card memo using the "Sticker Glue" from the separate volume appendix. Decorate the card memo freely by attaching deco parts to the provided Sanrio Character-themed paper.
