NieR:Automata Dakimakura: 2B or Commander Cover Guide

Choose the character before comparing the configuration

A NieR:Automata dakimakura purchase involves two decisions that are easy to mix together: which character cover you want, and which size and material will suit your pillow. A familiar character name can draw you into a listing, but it does not tell you whether the selected dimensions match your insert or whether the displayed price includes your preferred options.

This guide uses two actual catalog listings as starting points: 2B, identified by SKU AN00147, and Commander, identified by SKU AN00143. Both currently offer the same four size labels and four material choices. That makes them a useful comparison if you want to settle the character choice while keeping the practical configuration consistent. They are individual product listings, rather than a promise that every cover in the series has identical options.

2B or Commander: two clear routes through the catalog

Start with 2B when that is the character you want

The 2B body pillow cover, SKU AN00147, is titled NieR:Automata 2B Anime Dakimakura Body Pillow Cover. Use that exact SKU when keeping a shortlist: several other listings also contain 2B in their names, so a character search alone will not reliably return the same design later.

Open the complete product preview before selecting a material. Examine every illustrated side, including any censored or obscured areas. A small search thumbnail is not enough to judge how comfortable you will be displaying the cover in your room. If the preview leaves an important detail unclear, resolve that question before ordering instead of assuming the hidden part matches your expectations.

Start with Commander when you prefer that character

The Commander cover, SKU AN00143, provides a separate character route within the same series. Its product title identifies Commander, and its current configuration menu lists the same dimensions and materials as AN00147. Choose between these listings based on the character and the complete artwork you actually want to own.

Keeping two tabs open helps you compare without losing the configuration. Select the same size and material in both, then check the resulting totals. If you change the artwork and material at the same time, you may attribute a price difference to the character when it comes from a selected option.

What the two product menus have in common

The following comparison records the current options for these two SKUs. It does not describe every NieR:Automata cover, and it does not establish differences in printing quality, licensing, stock availability or delivery speed.

Check	2B AN00147	Commander AN00143
Product type in title	Body pillow cover	Body pillow cover
Size choices, cm	120 × 40; 150 × 50; 160 × 50; 180 × 60	120 × 40; 150 × 50; 160 × 50; 180 × 60
Material choices	Peach Skin; Natural Velvet; Two Way Tricot; Upgraded Two Way Tricot	Peach Skin; Natural Velvet; Two Way Tricot; Upgraded Two Way Tricot
Main selection question	Is this the 2B listing you want?	Is this the Commander listing you want?

Notice that neither of these menus lists 100 × 34 cm or Smooth Knit. Those labels may appear on other products, but they should not be carried over to these two listings. When an option you need is missing, look for another verified listing or ask about availability; do not place an order on the assumption that a note can replace the available menu.

Match the size to an insert you own or plan to buy

Write the size as a pair of dimensions. The difference between 150 × 50 cm and 160 × 50 cm is length, while moving from 160 × 50 cm to 180 × 60 cm changes both length and width. A longer cover is therefore not always a wider cover, and the largest choice is not automatically the best match for your existing pillow.

If you already own an insert, check its size label before choosing the character cover. If the label is unavailable, measure its length and width without stretching it. Record any uncertainty about the pillow’s shape or fullness rather than trying to correct an obvious mismatch by pulling the cover harder.

A first purchase needs the same check in the opposite direction: choose the cover dimensions, then identify an appropriate insert. The standard dakimakura inner pillow has its own configuration menu. Read that menu separately and confirm that your intended size appears on both pages. A photograph of a filled pillow is not a package list, so confirm what each product includes before adding it to your cart.

Choose a fabric option without changing the artwork decision

For AN00147 and AN00143, the material labels are Peach Skin, Natural Velvet, Two Way Tricot and Upgraded Two Way Tricot. These are choices for the cover. They do not identify the insert’s filling, and selecting a different label should not be treated as a way to select a different character illustration.

Start with your own experience. If you already like a particular cover material, check whether that exact option is offered here. If you are new to dakimakura fabrics, read the site’s guide to cover fabric choices before deciding. Compare the information relevant to feel, handling and care rather than assuming the word “Upgraded” answers every question for every buyer.

The practical budget is the configured total. Size and material options can add to the displayed starting price, so a comparison is only meaningful after both selections are made. Keep the same currency and configuration when comparing, and review any other charges shown during checkout separately. An attractive starting figure should not replace checking the final order details.

Make a shortlist that remains useful at checkout

A shortlist is most helpful when it contains the product identity and configuration together. For these two covers, a note such as “2B, AN00147, 160 × 50 cm, selected material” is easier to verify than a screenshot labeled only “NieR pillow.” Include the product URL in your own shopping notes so you can return to the exact page.

• Confirm the character named in the product title.
• Review all shown artwork, including the reverse side.
• Save the SKU so similar titles cannot confuse the comparison.
• Match both size dimensions to the intended insert.
• Select a material offered on that specific listing.
• Check the configured total and what the order includes.

This sequence also helps with gifts. If the recipient wants 2B specifically, a Commander cover is a different character choice even when the practical options are identical. If you are uncertain about artwork preferences or an existing pillow size, ask those questions first. They are more useful than guessing that any design from the same series will work equally well.

Frequently asked questions

Do these two covers offer the same sizes?

Yes. The current menus for AN00147 and AN00143 list 120 × 40, 150 × 50, 160 × 50 and 180 × 60 cm. Recheck the page before ordering, since this comparison applies to those individual listings.

Can I select Smooth Knit on either listing?

Smooth Knit is not in the current material menus for these two products. Their listed choices are Peach Skin, Natural Velvet, Two Way Tricot and Upgraded Two Way Tricot.

Does choosing the cover size also select an inner pillow?

Do not assume it does. These products are titled body pillow covers. Check the package information and choose a matching insert separately when needed; the insert’s size menu is its own selection.

Is the first displayed price the final price?

Check the total after selecting size and material. Option adjustments and checkout charges can affect the amount you pay, so compare fully configured products rather than only their starting prices.

Find the character cover that fits your setup

Browse the NieR:Automata cover collection with your preferred character and insert dimensions already noted. Use AN00147 and AN00143 as two concrete starting points, review the full previews, and keep the size and material consistent while comparing. That gives you a character choice you can recognize and a configuration you can verify before checkout.
