Exclusive Merchandise Unveiled
A highlight of the pop-up shops is the pre-sale of brand-new merchandise featuring original illustrations. These exclusive items showcase the characters in a “shopping mall date” theme, designed to fully immerse fans in the story’s atmosphere. Among the offerings are acrylic stands, ingeniously crafted to connect at their bases, allowing characters to be displayed together and visually represent their relationships and dynamics.
Immersive Displays and Comic Sales
Beyond the merchandise, the pop-up shops will also feature sales of the latest comic volumes, including the one released on January 23rd, alongside previous installments. To further enhance the fan experience, life-size character panels and replica original drawings will be on display, inviting visitors to step directly into the vibrant world of the “Ane-chan Series.”
Special Benefits for Shoppers
Visitors making purchases at the pop-up shops will be rewarded with exclusive benefits. For every 2,000 yen (tax included) spent on “Ane-chan Series” related products, customers will receive one random profile card from a set of eight unique designs. These cards offer a charming glimpse into the characters’ details. Additionally, those who purchase any volume from the “Ane-chan no Tomodachi ga Uzai Hanashi” or “Tomodachi no Ane-chan ni Koi Shita Hanashi” series, including the new release, will receive an exclusive illustration card per volume. These special benefits are available while supplies last.
