nesoberi
寝そべり 寝そべりぬいぐるみ ハイパージャンボ寝そべりぬいぐるみ メガジャンボ寝そべりぬいぐるみ
A line of stuffed toys, initially made for Love Live!, but that has since expanded to other franchises too. "Nesoberi" (寝そべり) literally means 'to lie down' or 'to sprawl'.
They are primarily manufactured by SEGA and distributed through resellers or as game prizes. They come in multiple sizes, from miniature sizes that can barely fit in the palm of your hand, all the way to Mega Jumbo size that are over a foot long and a headsize high. There have also been a few examples of Tera Jumbo Nesoberi for the Love Live cast, which can cover half of a whole bedlength.
A game based upon the Nesoberis was released for Japanese Exclusive mobile devices in 2018: Puchiguru Love Live!, featuring only characters from μ's, Aqours, and Saint Snow. The game didn't last long and was shut down at the end of May in 2019.
The game was later revitalised on April Fools 2024, reskinned with assets from Link! Like! Love Live!'s 103rd Units.
