Puni Yurayura glass

Maybe I should start a mug/glass collection

Time for the bloggiest blog post so far.

In-game Puni

Blue puni from Atelier Ryza

This is a Puni. It’s basically the equivalent of a Goomba in the Atelier games1. Punis come in many colours: blue, green, red, black, silver, rainbow, grey, and some more.

4 punis. From top left going clockwise: green puni, rainbow puni, black puni, and red puni

The glass I got is a Puni turned into glassware. I thought it looked cute and it was a novelty product for not much money, so I figured why not.

IRL Puni

The glass Puni has a unique ability: it can turn into any colour I want it to.

I don’t have colourful juices in my fridge now, but it’ll be fun to see how the glass Puni transforms with them.

It also wobbles a lot like a roly-poly because the base is not flat. It’s part of the design. From what I can tell, “yurayura” (ゆらゆら) kind of means wobbling. It seems fun until you fill it up with a drink and it still wobbles.
