A novelty gift maker in Japan has devised a questionable new way of stopping a relationship from finishing with a “break-up prevention kit” that comes complete with a faulty condom.

The gag toy is also packed with a syringe and vial for collecting and storing semen should your condom actually work.

The Daily Dot reports that the 'kit' is only on sale in one bookshop in Tokyo, so don't all rush at once to purchase your own.

You could also try saving your relationship via a slightly less insane route, such as talking to your partner about the issues you have or taking some time to consider whether you actually want to be together.
