Girls are creatures that have no eyes on glittering things such as jewels and illuminations. Zebra released "Kirarich", a line marker with "lame" that grabs such a maiden's heart on May 18th.


This product is a highlighter pen with an unprecedented idea that the drawn lines shine brilliantly. The author of Arasa OL, who had been interested in it before its release, also tried using it immediately.

◆ The dazzling lame is squeaky!

Kirarich's lineup consists of five colors: blue, green, yellow, purple, and pink. The arabesque pattern is applied to the cap and body, and it looks more like cosmetics than a pen.


When you open the cap and draw a line as it is, a glittering line appears like a nail color. It is dazzling depending on the angle of lighting, and you can see that lame is used generously. It's a very fine lame, so it's not fluffy and has a romantic shine. You can feel luxurious because the ink always comes out without fading.


Not only as a line marker, but also because it stands out, it is perfect for notebooks, calendars, and message cards.


◆ It's not just mixing lame

By the way, why does the glitter come out evenly without shaking? According to the company, by depositing silver on finely crushed glass particles to make glitter, it is always dispersed even in low-viscosity ink. Also, the material and density of the pen tip are devised so that the ink does not get clogged. Certainly, the ink comes out smoothly as if it came out a little too much.


By the way, the person in charge of development was a female researcher who loved writing letters and notebooks with a cute pen since she was a child. It took two years to commercialize it, and I feel a deep love for stationery, including the background.


The price of Kirarich is 120 yen (excluding tax) per pen, which is the same price as a normal highlighter pen. It's a lot more affordable than the traditional decoration lame pens. As a casual lame pen, you can buy it all at once and it's no loss!
