Saku Saku Panda (“Kabaya”)

When I selected this item to photograph, I thought that I’d just be snapping some pictures of the box and the panda biscuits inside of it.
Right?
Um, no…

Before opening the box, I should’ve thought harder about it being a Japanese item and what that could mean. Not wanting to deprive any readers who can read Japanese of a possibly clever or cute joke or saying, I took this photo.

And this one.

Then I couldn’t stop.

What do you think is going on? I’m going to guess…

I don’t want to go to work…

Please don’t make me go to work…

I’ll eat all of my bamboo from now on, I swear, just don’t make me go to work…

I’m begging you!
(Pleading, crying, and begging don’t work for me either, Panda.)

Oh, what do we have here?

An…Ewok? (They scared me as a child and stilldoasanadult.)

Ah, a much friendlier-looking face.

Sorta. See, the biscuit is two-faced, literally.

One side is white chocolate and milk chocolate; the other is plain biscuit and milk chocolate. I thought I was done with the cuteness, here.
I was wrong yet again.

I found a little somethin’ somethin’ extra in the box.

Oh no…

Now I’m really done for.




Freaking adorable! I’ll do a quick translation:
Pre-comic strip: Our bodies are made of chocolate and biscuits!
1. -gets into the elevator-
2. -elevator makes a noise-
3. Saku Panda: This one…
4. In Saku Pan’s world, the elevators warn you of melting chocolate with a sound!
TabzChewy: Awesome. Thanks so much for the translation; it’s much appreciated! (Although I’m not sure I *get* it.)
Yeah I’m right there with you, AA. How on earth elevator noise has anything to do with chocolate and biscuits? Weird!
Try these one and also some new flavors like banana, caramel, and strawberry at http://www.tsunami.hk
Tsunami hong kong: Thanks for the link; I wasn’t aware that this item comes in other flavors.
I am going NUTS over that link! And Rilakkuma pretzel sticks?! AHHHH! The cuteness! (Everytime I see Rilakkuma anything, my voice gets so high-pitched from the obscene amounts of cuteness.)
