After viral Labubu dolls, other accessories like Labubu bongs and outfits take over the market amid demonic Pazuzu allegations
What started as an adorable designer toy has now taken the wildest left turn in internet history. Labubu, yes, the creepy-cute elf-like creature from the Pop Mart universe, has gone from dangling on Gen Z's bags to being turned into actual bongs. And no, this is not satire. The internet has officially lost the plot.
The viral Labubu pipeline: From dolls to… bongs?
The obsession began with the viral Labubu bag charms. From fashion girls to stoner boys, everyone wanted one. Suddenly, reels were flooded with 'Labubu girl' energy, makeup looks inspired by the character, and #LabubuCheck haul videos. It was quirky, it was niche… until it was not.
Now, the rabbit hole has deepened. Enter Labubu bongs, actual smoking devices shaped like this once-wholesome creature. And let us not even get started on the limited edition T-shirts where Labubu is literally attached as a plushie charm. It is not just merch anymore. It is a lifestyle.
Internet's mixed reactions: Cute, cursed, or cult?
While die-hard fans are screaming 'take my money,' others are begging the trend to stop. 'It went from kawaii to cursed real fast,' one user commented on a viral unboxing video of a Labubu bong. Another simply said, 'Labubu used to bring me joy. Now he haunts my dreams.'
Even fashion influencers are styling full looks around Labubu now—oversized graphic tees, backpacks, phone charms, and yes, accessories for the bongs. Who needs a boyfriend when you have a full Labubu collection, apparently?
Is this the peak or just the beginning?
As Labubu dominates the alt-aesthetic corners of the internet, it begs the question, how far will this go? Are we getting Labubu crocs next? A Labubu-themed café? A Netflix horror-comedy spin-off? Nothing seems off-limits anymore in this timeline.
But for now, brace yourselves. The Labubu wave is not crashing anytime soon, it is evolving, mutating, and infiltrating every inch of this generations culture. Welcome to the Labubu multiverse, you are either obsessed… or completely baffled.
