*Effective from shipments on August 1, 2026, our delivery carrier will change from Sagawa Express to Yamato Transport. Along with this change, our postal delivery service will also change from "Hikyaku Yu-Packet" to "Nekopos."
The “Nekopos” is available as a shipping option for domestic orders only.
“Nekopos” is a mailbox delivery service provided by Yamato Transport. Your order will be delivered to your mailbox. You will be able to select ”Nekopos” from the shipping options screen only if your order qualifies for this service.

We will inform you of any changes in your shipping method in the shipping confirmation email.
