Although he increasingly dealt with heavy themes and narratives as his career went on, legendary anime director Hayao Miyazaki’s My Neighbor Totoro is a film of almost non-stop good vibes, with scene after scene filled with childlike whimsy, wonder, and joy. Wouldn’t it be nice to take a break from the worries of the workaday world and live inside the 1988 classic for a day?
Of course, if we’re talking animated flights of fancy, why stop at being just any character in the movie, when instead you can become Totoro himself with this lineup of Totoro apparel.
You may have seen pictures of the full-body Totoro costume that sometimes pops up at anime specialty stores, but the Totoro collection being offered by fashion crowdfunding site Teespring is a bit more practical if you ever plan on leaving the house. Rather than transform you into the famous Ghibli character from head to toe, Totoro Tummy clothing simply gives you the belly of the adorable beast.
First up is this all-cotton sweatshirt for US$39.99, with a hood that’ll keep your ears warm on your night flights over the farmlands of Japan.
Underneath, you can pair it with a $24.99-long-sleeved tee for twice the Totoro tummy.
Finally, ditching half the sleeves knocks two bucks off the price, and gives you your choice of a standard or women’s cut.
There’s less than a week remaining for the Totoro Tummy line to reach its goal of 50 items for the clothing to go into production, so if you’re interested, you can order yours here. Teespring accepts payment by Visa, MasterCard, Discover, American Express, or PayPal, although sadly for Totoro himself, not acorns.
