We are THRILLED to introduce our latest employee, Sepia Shibara! We've been hunting this fellow down for years to serve as a body double for the company's shiba inu. Welcome home, Sepia Shibara! #sofubi #shibara #konatsuya

Today we're showing our appreciation for yellow Unico!! Pictured here in situ, he's a bit of a gamer but that doesn't stop him from working hard. Thank you, yellow Unico!

This week's star employee is clear neon pink Kewpie baby angel! Too anatomically incorrect to be a Sonny Angel, this bright addition to our workforce stands confidently in the public domain. Thank you for your hard work, clear neon pink Kewpie baby angel!

Technically, neither Smiski nor Knightriders on VHS are sofubi. However, we are an equal opportunity employer, and we believe Smiski's message: George Romero's Knightriders (1981) is both a movie about motorcycle jousting AND an insightful look into how niche interests gather found family

It's a dangerous world out there... fortunately we've got melon shaved ice D-Attack Opening Gabura to stand guard! Thank you for keeping us safe, D-Attack Gabura! #sofubi

Happy Pride! Our DEI department agreed to let us nominate FIVE employees this week - congrats to our happy family of Fueki! A stationery company of the same name sells beloved glue pots shaped like his head. It can be assumed all of our employees contain useful office supplied as well! #sofubi

I'm just saying

sorry for the long delay between posts - the Sofubi Employee of the Week crew held an extended off-site in Japan, and also I forgot

Here to show that you don't need a face to shine is... this mushroom that I bought at Design Festa 2023 and whose artist I forget and can't find!!

Today's Soapstone Employee of the Day is this bear I carved at a work happy hour a few months ago! A bit of April Fool's Day fun since technically, he's probably considered property of my employer!

I picked up this Futoagon at Design Festa in November of 2023 and I can't find any info about this color? Yet he's been doing an incredible job ramping up the new hires!! Thank you, mysterious rainbow Futoagon!!

Our latest employee of the week is Inu Hariko Daioh Shibara! His big personality makes him a stand-out hit with customers! Thank you for your hard work, Inu Hariko Daioh Shibara! #sofubi #konatsu #negora #shibara

Today we're thanking classic Forest Friends Deer and its assistant, Forest Friends Squirrel, for their great work running our branch location! #sofubi

Oops, it's been a while, the holidays were busy. Holding down the fort in the last few weeks is Yamazaki Wakana's The Dragon in Cotton Candy. Congratulations!!!

Living up to his name this week is Rambunctious Christopher by @gneelzer.bsky.social at Bombastic Plastic! Thank you for the enthusiasm you bring to work every day, Christopher!

you actually can fill the void at the core of your being with worldly possessions if you're really, really good at buying stuff

our new employee of the week is Sato-chan, the beloved mascot of Sato Pharmaceuticals! he works hard every day to provide us with the over-the-counter medicines we know and love #sofubi #sato-chan

our first sofubi employee of the week is Red Lucky Cat Negora!! her welcoming demeanor makes her a joy to have around the office ♥️ keep up the good work, Red Lucky Cat Negora!

every week, by which I mean every once in a while, my wife and I check in on our toy collection and identify one little guy who's been really exhibiting excellent behaviors. it seemed like time to begin documenting our employees of the week!!
