Chiikawa Earbuds Hachiware

Cute cats (well, cute everything but let's stick to cats for now!) have been big in Japan since the Edo period (1600-1868) and every few years, a new one joins the crowd and becomes the face of kawaii (adorable) for the next generation. And when it comes to the Japanese Gen Z and Gen Alpha crowd, the current feline of choice is Hachiware, the best friend of Chiikawa from the eponymous online manga and TV anime series. The Chiikawa Earbuds Hachiware put this cat right in your ears when you're listening to your favorite music or podcast!

The Chiikawa Earbuds Hachiware are 15.8 x 20 x 26.3 mm (0.6 x 0.8 x 1") each and come in a charging case that is about 46.7 x 30.5 x 47.6 mm (1.8 x 1.2 x 1.9"). The case has a USB-C to USB-A cable so you can connect it to any USB power source and will only take about one hour and a half to charge your earbuds; after that, they will keep going for up to about 5 hours for music playback and up to about 3.5 hours for conversation on the telephone –communication with the phone is over Bluetooth 5.3. All that with an adorable image of Hachiware on a light blue background on each bud and a bigger one on the charging case!
