These creative and real life boxed lunches called “bento” in Japan are single-portion meals used by adults and kids. Apparently it is fashionable to make them as cute as possible, by creating faces and entire scenes.

People in Japan know how to have delicious and beautifully arranged meals in kyaraben style commonly known as “character bento”. Bento is real Japanese art. Every takeout meal is decorated to look like famous anime and manga characters, popular video game heroes, animals, people, flowers or other items. Each bento looks like a real masterpiece that consists of rice, vegetables, and meat or fish packed into variously shaped containers.
