butt sticker
You might be surprised at first, thinking, “What are butt stickers?” But they’re actually super popular! The motif is butts, but they’re cutely designed to look like pale pink hearts at a glance, and they’re three-dimensional with a squishy feel.
There are also lots of varieties: some are just butts, some have only the character’s butt made 3D, and some make the tummy squishy instead of the butt.
The variety makes them really fun to collect! I think it would be fun to make a sticker book just for butt stickers.
Water seal
Water stickers are seals that contain liquid-filled capsules.
Besides liquid, they also have sequins and glitter, which makes you want to shake them.
When you shake the sticker, the contents move and it looks as beautiful as a snow globe.
These stickers, which are different from regular ones, seem to be very popular on social media.
They sell out quickly in stores, so there are posts and social media accounts sharing how to make them.
There are even methods using items sold at 100-yen shops, which many people find helpful.
However, because the product is so popular, the 100-yen items featured in the tutorials can also sell out, making them hard to make.
Capsule Pop Seal
Because capsule pop stickers are hollow inside, the pieces move when you shake them! Their three-dimensional design combined with a playful element is making them increasingly popular.
You can enjoy the sound when you shake them and check what kinds of pieces are inside—there are lots of ways to have fun.
They’re wonderful stickers you don’t just look at; you can imagine and enjoy their whole world.
There are many designs, so try finding the ones you like.
When sticking them in a sticker book, be careful not to crush them!
clear sticker
This product comes as a set of a clear sheet and clear stickers.
You complete the design by placing the stickers on the sheet.
Since the sheet only has black outline drawings, you stick the colored stickers on top to fill them in.
Once finished, you can display it by putting it in a frame, so after enjoying the sticking process, try using it as interior decor.
There are also smaller clear stickers available that can be used in sticker books.
Because clear stickers have a transparent background, they look refined wherever you place them.
Perfect for decorating letters and gifts!
Bonbon drop stickers
Glossy, plump-looking Bonbon Drop stickers have been explosively popular since the latter half of 2025.
They’re sold at stores like Loft, Hands, and Don Quijote, but seem to sell out immediately after restocking.
They can even sell out online in seconds.
In addition to characters like Chiikawa and Shizuku-chan, there are original Bonbon Drop sticker designs as well.
Because they’re so popular, counterfeits are also circulating.
Reportedly, the back of the package may be in a foreign language or written in unnatural Japanese.
Other signs of fakes include hollow stickers that dent with a squish when pressed, minimal glitter, and unclear printing.
marshmallow sticker
These stickers are popular for their marshmallow-like fluffy appearance and satisfyingly squishy texture.
I bet many kids would love a larger size of these, right? They really stand out when you stick them in a sticker album, and the bigger they are, the more fun they are to touch.
With so many characters and varieties available, it’s also great that you can create an album filled only with marshmallow stickers.
Like little sweets, just looking at them makes you happy.
They’re sure to be a hit for trading with friends, too!

cotton puffy stickers
While most stickers tend to have flat designs, these cotton puffy stickers are three-dimensional, featuring a charming fluffy flocked texture.
Their matte finish adds a touch of luxury, making them irresistibly cute even for adults.
They’re easy to stick into sticker albums, perfect for simply admiring their cuteness or enjoying their squishy feel! Cotton puffy stickers come in a variety of characters and designs, so take this opportunity to look for your favorites.
They’re also available from Sanrio!
