Aiup has released four new types of Doraemon merchandise, including a four-dimensional pocket pouch and plush-sewn tote bags, now available at the official Aiup online shop.
Doraemon, created by Fujiko F. Fujio, began serialization in Shogakukan’s grade-specific learning magazines in 1970. The TV anime started in 1979 on TV Asahi, and the first theatrical film, Doraemon: Nobita’s Dinosaur, was released in 1980. The series surpassed 100 million cumulative viewers in 2013, continuing to hold the record as the top-grossing film series in Japan. The 46th film, Eiga Doraemon: Nobita no Jouki Jikan-sha, is slated for spring 2027. The franchise remains popular with both children and adults.
Four-Dimensional Pocket Pouch
The four-dimensional pocket pouch (¥2,200 each) is now available in new designs featuring Mini Doraemon and Dokodemo Door (renewed), in addition to the existing Uso 800 pattern. The pouch is designed after Doraemon’s famous four-dimensional pocket.
Mochimochi Keyholders
The Mochimochi Keyholder (¥880 each) adds new designs: Dorayaki Ippai and Mii-chan Nikkori, alongside the existing Suzu and Dorayaki patterns. These cute face-shaped keyholders feature a soft, springy texture and come with felt parts that match their playful expressions.
Nuinu Bag Series
The popular Nuinu Bag series (¥5,500 each) now includes Doraemon. These bold tote bags feature a plush toy sewn onto the front, and two designs are available.
Nemuri Tie
The new Nemuri Tie wrist cushion (¥1,760 each) is also available. Wrap it around your wrist and it transforms into a relaxing pillow for use at a desk or while traveling. Two designs are offered. It features a back pocket for storing small items and a fluffy, soft touch.
All four new product lines, featuring Doraemon characters and secret gadgets, are now on sale at the Aiup official online shop.
