Even if Doraemon wasn’t included in the name, just one look at the cat on the Doraemon Come Come Cat Food Renge Spoon would immediately bring to mind the robotic cat from the future that has been spurring Japanese children’s imaginations since 1969. And you’d be right: this spoon is inspired by a classic Doraemon story about a stray cat that the titular character rescues, as well as a clever plot involving a local ramen restaurant and the legendary ‘Come Come Cat Food’ gadget.

A Story Served with Your Soup

In the original 1984 manga chapter, Doraemon uses his secret gadget to help a struggling ramen shop owner attract customers. By feeding the local felines the enchanted cat food, the cats become magnets for patrons. This Doraemon Come Come Cat Food Renge Spoon is a perfect homage to that charming tale. A ‘renge’—the iconic deep-bowled Chinese-style spoon found in every ramen shop across Japan—is the ideal utensil for savoring rich, savory broths, and now it carries a piece of manga history.

Beyond the nostalgia, this item is a high-quality piece of tableware. Crafted from durable ceramic and designed for daily use, it is both microwave and dishwasher safe.

Ramen culture is as much about the vessel as it is about the broth, and nothing captures the whimsical intersection of Japanese pop culture and culinary tradition quite like the Doraemon Come Come Cat Food Ramen Bowl. Featuring the iconic red meander pattern common in traditional eateries, this bowl is a clever nod to the enduring influence of Chinese culinary roots in Japan, elevated by the presence of everyone’s favorite robotic cat.

A Story Served in a Bowl

True fans of the series will recognize the inspiration behind this piece: the 1984 manga story “Come Come Cat Food,” where Doraemon helps a struggling restaurant by providing a magical cat that beckons in customers. Whether you are a dedicated collector or simply appreciate high-quality kitchenware, you can get your own slice of manga history here. The bowl features delightful illustrations of Doraemon and his feline counterpart, rewarding the diner with a hidden graphic at the very bottom once the last drop of soup is gone.

Craftsmanship Meets Convenience

Beyond the nostalgia, this is a highly functional piece of kitchen gear. Measuring 185 x 68 mm, it is the perfect size for a hearty serving of tonkotsu or miso ramen.

If you are looking to brighten up your dining routine with a touch of Tokyo charm, the Doraemon Come Come Cat Food Ramen Bowl is an essential addition to your collection.

Other than noodles, there are two other dishes served in all ramen restaurants in Japan: gyoza dumplings and chahan fried rice. Like ramen, both dishes come from Chinese cuisine but have been adjusted to match Japanese tastes. And in the case of the Doraemon Come Come Cat Food Octagon Plate, one more unmistakably Japanese ingredient has been added to the classic eight-sided plate used for serving chahan: Doraemon, the robotic cat from the future and one of manga/anime’s best-loved characters!

A Slice of Retro Anime History

The Doraemon Come Come Cat Food Octagon Plate is 190 x 40 mm (7.5 x 1.6″) and crafted from high-quality porcelain. It is directly inspired by a whimsical manga story published over 40 years ago, in which Doraemon helps a struggling ramen restaurant by using a special gadget. The “Come Come Cat Food” transforms a regular stray cat into a literal maneki-neko (beckoning cat) to lure in hungry customers. While the plate serves as a functional piece of dinnerware, it acts as a cultural nod to one of the most heartwarming chapters in the franchise’s long history.

Why It Belongs in Your Kitchen

Whether you are a collector of official anime merchandise or simply someone who appreciates the unique aesthetic of classic Japanese ramen shop tableware, this plate brings a sense of joy to any meal. Its octagonal shape is the gold standard for authentic fried rice presentation, and the graphic design captures the playful spirit of the “blue cat from the 22nd century.” You can secure your own Doraemon Come Come Cat Food Octagon Plate at the Japan Trend Shop today.

This plate isn’t just for display; it is a durable porcelain piece that invites a bit of magic into your daily dining ritual.

It isn’t just the vintage look of the coils themselves or their packaging: mosquito coils remain relevant because they’re still effective against the bugs, despite being around for over 100 years. Apparently, mosquitoes haven’t yet gotten used to their active ingredient, pyrethrum. If there’s one problem with them, though, it is their duration: you don’t always need the 7-12 hours the average mosquito coil lasts. Which is why Kincho has created the mini version, which you find in the Kincho Mosquito Mini Coils!

It makes sense that Kincho is sensitive to the needs of consumers: they’re the pioneers of the original mosquito coil and have been in the business since 1886! So while the two packs of 30 coils you get in the Kincho Mosquito Mini Coils set have the same active ingredient as the classic version, they only last for about three hours. This is perfectly calibrated for an afternoon nap or an evening in the garden with friends. Unscented and paired with a simple, effective metallic holder, these coils represent the quintessential Japanese design philosophy: minimal, functional, and highly reliable.

Specs and Features:

• 2 boxes, 30 coils each (60 total)
• Coils packed in groups of 10 for convenience
• Made by mosquito coil inventor Kincho (est. 1886)
• Unscented
• Includes dedicated coil holder
• Active ingredient: dl-d-T80-allethrin
• Duration: approx. 3 hours per coil
• Pack dimensions: 85 x 170 x 85 mm (3.3 x 6.7 x 3.3″)
