Rilakkuma purikura for office ladies

Rebecca posted before on Rilakkuma character-themed hotel rooms, so we shouldn’t be too surprised to see the lovable little bear make his way into the print-club booth.

While normal purikura (print-club) photo booths are all about making high school girls look gorgeous, this incarnation seems to be targeted towards women out of school and working. Rilakkuma is popular with this group (as are many characters), but since they’ve grown up with purikura it just makes sense to combine the two, no?

After taking photos in the booth, users can customize them along with the characters, write notes, add graphics, and even have digital copies sent to an email address to share with others or post online like these lovely ladies and general character fanatic Hamyblue did.
