    I seriously almost bought one of the Hello Kitty Tamagothis last year at my local Target as a 21 year old.

    I was very tempted

      Right, they’re still tantalizing even knowing they’re annoying. Bandai also has something now days called a Vital Bracelet, kind of like a smartwatch meets Digipet. You train your monster by exercising. I got one because they were steeply discounted. Then I found out it was deprecated and replaced by a better model. It also only supported military time. And shortly after they ended up sunsetting the entire franchise, and taking down the associated apps. Like, c’mon Bandai, put a little effort in plz. 🫠
