So I don't really buy the Waifu cups, at least not on their own. I really only get them when they come free with the purchase of a flavor tub, which is how I got the Samurai cup, the first I've ever received. The only reason I really decided to get this cup is because it was the first design I ever saw that toned down the overtly sexual theme that other cups display. Not that there is anything wrong with anyone who enjoys that sort of thing, but some of us might be too self conscious to be walking around showing off anime boobs on our cups. That aside, the design is nice, kinda cute, but the cup quality is where it really matters. The plastic is partially opaque, which might be an issue for some, but isn't even a consideration for me. What matters is that it gets the job done, it looks nice, and the little things matters. The opening is uniquely shaped and makes for easier drinking, the insert is great at keeping ice from blocking the opening, and it looks great when full.
