Giant Anime Character Beds

The My Neighbor Totoro Bed is Shaped Like the Giant Anime Creature

— August 31, 2013 — Life-Stages
The 'My Neighbor Totoro Bed' is made to look just like the big cuddly creature from the beloved animated film from Studio Ghibli.

Although it is just a comfy surface to sleep on, this bed is far from conventional -- it looks more like a giant stuffed animal that could be won at a carnival. Just like in the anime, this Totoro-shaped bed is huge and can comfortably accommodate two. Totoro's tummy works as a sleeping bag and his tail can also be detached for use as a pillow. Kids may never want to leave this cozy bed; thankfully the cover can be washed separately from the stuffing.

This is an adorable way for little anime lovers to curl up with this protective spirit of the forests.

3. Nostalgic Home Decor - The Totoro Bed taps into the trend of nostalgic home decor by recreating a beloved animated character, suggesting possibilities for creating other nostalgic-themed furnishings.
