This product is crab itself. “Crab” is a specified ingredient that must be labeled under Japan’s Food Labeling Act, and people with a crustacean allergy cannot eat it.

Five Points People Often Find Confusing When Choosing
| Item to Check | For This Product | Basis |
|---|---|---|
| 1. Amount / Servings | Approx. 1.2kg (gross weight approx. 1.4kg), stated as “about 2–3 servings.” Includes not only legs but also claws, claw base, and shoulder meat | Rakuten Ichiba product page |
| 2. Storage & Shelf Life | Keep frozen (−18°C or below); within 1 month (1 week recommended). Eat the same day once thawed | Rakuten Ichiba and Amazon product pages |
| 3. Ingredients & Allergen Labeling | Snow crab and antioxidants are listed. The standard ingredients label is Not confirmed | Rakuten Ichiba and Amazon product pages |
| 4. Suitable as a Gift? | The Rakuten Ichiba product page says noshi (gift wrapping label) is available. However, it notes that orders placed with Asu-raku (Rakuten’s next-day delivery service) cannot have noshi or a delivery time slot. Noshi on Amazon and Yahoo! Shopping is Not confirmed | Rakuten Ichiba product page |
| 5. What Reviews Say | Rakuten Ichiba reviews for all 8 options combined: 4.32/5 (46,707 reviews). Many say the pre-cut crab is convenient, while some point out there is a lot of shoulder meat or that it is salty (mainly about No. 1 and the boiled options). Ratings for No. 3 alone are not shown separately | Rakuten Minna no Review (accessed September 11, 2026) |
Suitable as a Gift?
The Rakuten Ichiba product page says noshi is available. One thing to watch: if you order with Asu-raku next-day delivery, you cannot set noshi or choose a delivery time. For a gift, it is better to order without Asu-raku.
The Rakuten product description says it is delivered in a gift box with instructions on how to eat it (checked on 11 September 2026).
If you buy on Amazon or Yahoo! Shopping, whether noshi or gift wrapping is available could not be confirmed on the product pages (Not confirmed). It also needs about 1.4kg of freezer space, and thawing under running water is recommended before eating. It helps to check whether the recipient has freezer space and can take the time to thaw it.

What Reviewers Praise
Many posts mention that the pre-cut crab takes little effort to shell, and many also say they enjoyed it in different ways — hot pot, grilled, zosui (rice porridge), or sashimi. Some posts say the family ate it over the year-end and New Year holidays or that it was sent to parents as oseibo (year-end gift), and there are also repeat customers who order it every year.

Points Some Reviewers Note
Some say there is a lot of shoulder meat, which is hard to eat (mainly from people who chose No. 1), and some point out saltiness (mainly about options other than raw, such as No. 6, which is boiled). Other posts say the meat was not as thick as expected or that it shrank when cooked. There are 3,130 ratings of 1–2 stars in total.
