Forget body and crotch pillows, upskirt umbrellas are now a thing

Yeah...

Within the last two months, we got a look crotch pillows, the anime lover's straight to the point answer to the overly bulky body pillow, and two Poe Dameron body pillows that will keep you company late at night. If cuddling up with fluffy things at night isn't your thing, there's something new – upskirt umbrellas.

Called Un-burera (a mix of underpants and umbrella), the upskirt umbrella is being produced by the Million Girls Project (Via RocketNews), a group of designers and entrepreneurs that want to keep the "crazy Japan" theme going. It looks like they succeeded with the Un-burera.

Currently, there are two versions of the umbrella (as seen below), one that shows a pair of striped panties when opened up (it's described to bring "vigor to the user who looks up on a rainy day") and a swimsuit umbrella (described to be safer than the panty version, because it's a swimsuit).

Both umbrellas cost ¥ 4,622, which converts to around $40 US.
