Hello everyone~! This is Saori from Kawaii Republic!

This time! Adorable new friend merchandise has been released under a fresh theme, so let's check it out! Judging by the name and appearance...... could it be inspired by that creature!?

【Sumikko Gurashi】 New Friend Merchandise Rolling Out! Who is the Tiny and Adorable Sumieti Living in the Snowy Mountains?

Living in the snowy mountain corners, Sumieti is a yeti-like friend! This new character, with its fluffy white and round form, is incredibly popular!

Today, I’d like to introduce Sumieti, who looks like a yeti...... but oddly enough, doesn’t handle the cold well! Here’s the official character description......

A creature said to live in the snowy mountains. It’s still small, so it’s weak to the cold. Though people might be afraid of it, it has a gentle personality.

So it seems to be a small, young friend! Sumieti was one of the characters introduced under last year's ‘Mysterious Friends’ theme, along with other quirky-looking friends!

When the new merchandise was released, a collaboration café was also held...... Sumieti’s dish was a snowy mountain pasta representing its homeland! The all-white dish had a UFO-like lemon accent, which was adorable! New Sumieti merchandise continues to be released, so be sure to check it out!
