I love keychains, clips, character goods and gacha, but I don't care for "rubber straps." These flat rubbery works of art fall off my bags easily, and they often feel overproduced and less inspired than miniatures and figures.

However...there are times I will buy them if I like the art enough. When I saw this Oshi no Ko x Sanrio art, I had no choice but to play. I played the gacha twice and won Ruby/Hello Kitty and Akane/Kuromi. They are super cute and I put them on my water bottle cover with other Sanrio charms. Recently, I found the Aqua/Cinnamoroll secondhand! Yessss! I will remain on the hunt for the Kanna/My Melody secondhand--I'd be happy to have more of this collection, especially at a discount.

I became really invested in Oshi no Ko last year--I found the story powerful and fresh. It reminds me a bit of the 1948 Broadway musical Kiss Me, Kate. Oshi no Ko is an enthralling, albeit fictional perspective on idol culture. I have not been able to get into the live-action drama they made though. Any other Oshi no Ko fans here?
