Tokyo Shoseki Co., Ltd. released the book “Grand Feeling Hotel” (written by Lidia Brankovich, translated by Tupera Tupera) on October 17, 2025. Explanation Welcome to Grand Feeling Hotel! This is a hotel where various Okimochis come to stay. Each Okimochis are very unique. For example, Lord Oikari is so loud that it cracks the walls, so he needs a spacious room where he can let loose to his heart’s content. On the other hand, Lady Sadness has a quiet voice, so if you don’t listen carefully, she’ll flood the bathroom with tears. Some Oki-mochis are big, and some are small. Some Oki-mochis are fun, and some are a bit troublesome. But of course, we never chase away any Oki-mochis. Here at Grand Feeling Hotel, we have a room for every emotion. Sadness, anxiety, gratitude, and more… The hotel manager, whose guests express a variety of emotions, introduces hospitality tailored to each emotion. A heartwarming story and illustrations you’ll want to read again and again. It’s also the perfect first picture book for children to confront their own feelings and emotions. The translation and cover illustrations were done by the hugely popular duo tupera tupera, known for works such as “Kao Note” (KOKUYO), “Fruit-san” (Gakken), “Polar Bear’s Pants” (Bronze Shinsha), “Panda Sento” (Ehonkan), and “Fruit-san” (Gakken).
