Collection: Shop Natsume's Book of Friends

Natsume, Nyanko-sensei & the Yokai

Takashi Natsume and the round, grumpy Nyanko-sensei anchor most releases, joined by characters such as Tanuma, Natori and Matoba. The series' calm, seasonal artwork suits display goods, so illustrated acrylic stands, dioramas and large panels from anniversary fairs and Asakusa Hanayashiki events are the pieces collectors prize most.

Everyday Keepsakes

Alongside the display items, extra-large buttons and small charms from yokai-search fairs give fans affordable, character-specific keepsakes. Because the franchise has run for well over a decade, goods span many campaigns, so older and event-only designs differ in wear from one release to the next.
