Benelic My Neighbor Totoro Dondoko Dance Large Japanese Teacup - Official Studio Ghibli Merchandise,12 ounces

I just received this mug as a birthday present and I absolutely love it! I had saved it to a wish list, so I knew what I was getting before hand, but it still was prettier in person than I was expecting. Part of me didnt think it would look as good in person as the pics online, but I was so wrong. The design itself is imprinted in the mug, so it has some good texture to it and there werent any imperfections in the ink. The only thing I considered docking a point for is that the mug itself gets really hot, and without a handle it can be overwhelming to hold with hot tea inside. I figure Ill probably appreciate that more in the winter, so I kept it at 5 stars! Would definitely buy another one or gift one to a friend :)

Its cute and lovely made, the only negativity is, that the cup gets hot, if you put very hot tea in it. Otherwise its finely made, I think. I bought it originally in Japan in the Ghibli shop as a gift, but later I decided I would like to have one also for myself.

As cute as pictured. Bought one for myself and a friend.

My son chose this as a gift for his sister. It is beautiful. She absolutely loves it, uses it for her tea often, and he is pleased he got her a gift she really likes. Its been thru the dishwasher a lot and still looks new.

The Totoro Dondoko Dance Large Japanese Teacup is made of thick porcelain, so heat transfer from hot tea is unlikely to burn the hand. It really is porcelain, as can be seen in its translucency, and also by its unglazed bottom (which confirms that it is not made of translucent glass). The artwork is beautifully done, and all of the figures are incised into the surface. I also like the larger-than-usual capacity (350 mL or 1.5 cups or 12 fluid ounces).

So much bigger than the other one I bought from a book store. Love it!!!!

I bought this for my boyfriend (a Ghibli fan) and he loved it! Once he accidentally dropped it from his desk and we were so pleased that it didnt break. This is a well made cup

The biggest of 3 different mugs that I ordered, and my favorite images as well. THE DANCE!

Ive worked as a potter and can tell this is really so much better quality than most themed mugs/cups you can buy. This is high fire porcelain, cast relatively thickly so that it is more likely to survive a bump or drop without chipping or cracking. I use mine every day and it has been through the microwave and dishwasher a few hundred times already and looks like new.

very sturdy and image quality is quite sharp. heavy and best quality i have seen so far. totally worth the purchase for your fellow weeb.
