Marimo Believes He’s a Marimo (and Aio Loves Him Anyway)

Marimo is a dreamy goldfish who believes he’s a marimo ball. Aio doesn’t mind—he just loves Marimo. This project funds a cuddly 2-pack plush set celebrating friendship, imagination, and quiet pond moments.

Marimo and Aio were created to celebrate differences in a gentle way. In a world that can be unkind, their friendship is a small, soft reminder that love and acceptance can make any place feel like home.

We have physical samples of the pair coming beginning of march, sign up for emails so you dont miss how cute and cuddly marimo is about to be.

Marimo is entirely soft, squishy minky filled with premium stuffing. Aio will be slightly fuzzy, using a feather knit material to appear fuzzy and 2x as soft as marimo.

Perfect for freshwater and aquatic enthusiasts, or maybe just lovers of all things cute looking to use the pair as a throw pillow set or cuddle buddy.

Considering backing, but not ready for two giant plushies in your home just yet? No worries, support the project and Marimo + Aios story by pledging at our $5 tier. You will receive a full waterproof sticker set of marimo and aio and help reach stretch goals for future pledging.
