Remember the arm pillow?

"Not 'it's nasty,' but 'it's pleasent.'"
According to a survey collected by Mr. Ikarashi himself, the image associated with the lap pillow is "relief." Not excitement.
The "Lap Pillow" is an ultra-fine healing good.

...Wait a minute, can't you see the panties?
"Not from a normal angle."
Right, that's because I'm peeking inside.'

Well, she does have a nice ass...

Without warning, there was a lap pillow o­n top of the reception table as if to say "welcome." I took a business card that was next to the lap pillow. This is a first for me.
Just looking at this "Lap Pillow" made my heart race, but touching it made my heart race even faster. The sensation of softly sticking to the skin-like texture...the polyester tight skirt. It's real.
"Damn..."
About a minute passed while thinking about those things. That's right, I have to do an interview.

But I still don't trust that bitch.

Then it seems you have never been to Japan. Old grannies sel porn on the street and the keys to love hotels. You can buy porn almost everywhere and the clerk wont even bat an eyelid. You can even buy underaged manga with nobody passing judgement.

Yeah...but unlike the arm-pillow, this just doesn't look comfortable. So much so that I can't help but imagining the lap-pillow was really designed for BDSM games. Add some leather, chans and restraining eyelets, and you're all set.

Is that a lesbian salaryperson sleeping on the Lap Pillow?

Ok, a salaryman can order all his favorite parts and make his own happy!

Japanese men lap up new comfort
BBC

Japanese men without a shoulder to cry on this Christmas are being offered a woman's lap - made out of foam - to rest on instead.
The "lap pillow", shaped like the bottom half of a kneeling woman, is selling for about 9,429 yen ($90), the French news agency AFP reported.

"Single men find this soothing," said Mitsuo Takahashi of the manufacturer Trane KK.

He told AFP that the Hizamakura, or lap pillow, fulfilled a primal need.

"From the time people were kids, people have laid their heads on their mothers' laps to get their ears cleaned," he said. "This is made to be quite close to the real thing."

This trend is out of control...

A Japanese woman snuggles up with a "Boyfriend's Arm Pillow", made by Japanese linen maker Kameo Corp, in Tokyo on Thursday. The pillow, with a price tag of 8,000 yen ($76), consists of a stuffed headless torso and an arm that curls around the user, providing comfort and a good sleep, the maker says. (Mainichi)

The Boyfriend Pillow
Apparently This Matters: by Jarrett Bellini, CNN | November 23, 2012
...I've already uncovered a great trending gift that, while not necessarily new, has gained renewed popularity on the interwebs.
It's called the Boyfriend Pillow.
Essentially, this thing serves as a bedtime substitute for the missing man in your life. Feel the warmth and security as you curl its plush arm around your body and rest your head on the half-chested slab of memory foam that oddly happens to be wearing a full button-down shirt to bed. Maybe he just came home drunk from happy hour. Again.
Oh, but you don't care. You still love him.
"Mmmm, let's go to sleep. What do you say, sexy Boyfriend Pillow?"
More tripe...

Makers of bizarre new “My Dome” sleep hoods stress health and beauty benefits
RocketNews24 | 2014/05/05
...the original design was actually borne from the president’s encounter with a paper bag after an evening on the drink.
Lying on the floor of his home looking for some warmth, he apparently saw a paper bag nearby and slipped it over his head. Upon waking the next morning, he felt better than normal. He was warm and clear-headed, he had no dry morning throat and even his skin looked good, he purports...
...The company claims that wearing its My Dome hood helps to protect you from allergies created by pollen and house dust.
Since the original design was released on October 2013, only 1,000 units or so have been sold. However, the portable and compact My Dome Pal was released in December, and since then some hotels and ANA flights have included it as a first-class amenity item ...more...

Japan unveils 'anti-loneliness' hugging chair
AFP | October 1, 2014
There are times in everyone's life when only a hug will do. Now one Japanese company has come up with a chair that's always ready to give a comforting cuddle.
The "tranquility chair" is built in the shape of a larger-than-life fabric doll with a friendly face and a fetching hat, but more importantly, it has long arms that wrap around the user...more...
