JapanA product marketed as a 'book' by Studio Ghibli's specialty store Donguri Kyowakoku is revealed to be a decorative storage box inspired by the 1989 anime film Kiki’s Delivery Service. The item, officially named the 'Kiki’s Memories Book Case,' features artwork reminiscent of the film and is designed to resemble a hardcover book. However, upon opening, it contains a lined interior for storing small items rather than pages of text. The product draws on elements from both the original children’s novel and the animated adaptation, offering fans a visually appealing tribute to the franchise. It is sold through Donguri Kyowakoku's online store for 4,620 yen.
