About Rakugaki Character Maker
"Rakugaki Character Maker" has been hugely popular with children at events like Maker Faire Tokyo and HAMAMATSU CREATIVE BOX.
You can draw quickly in one minute or take your time to create something detailed. And of course, you can draw as many times as you want. Create at your own pace and let your imagination run wild.
After drawing on a sketchbook, simply take a photo with your smartphone and upload it to the dedicated machine. One minute later, an original character jumps out from the sketchbook. That character becomes one-of-a-kind original merchandise.
And now, the newly released "Puny Mochi Mochi Sticker" is here. You can order on-site, and it will be delivered to your home within 2 weeks!

Past Event Highlights
At HAMAMATSU CREATIVE BOX, held at Act City Hamamatsu Event Hall on November 29-30, Sokolabo Inc. exhibited as a creative startup from Hamamatsu City and received great feedback, especially from families with children. The booth was so popular that they set up a temporary drawing space behind it. The sight of children enthusiastically drawing and the smiles on parents' and children's faces when the drawings became character merchandise brought happiness to the organizers as well.
