We are just having fun reviewing and discussing comic books, graphic novels, manga, anime/animation, music and movies that we have recently read, listened to or watched.
More Kumamate Bears are coming out through the Animate chain store. A couple are pictured above that where inspired by Card Captor Sakura and Yowamushi Pedal Grande Road. Not sure if this will be obtainable here, but check with your favorite anime/manga retailer. They are kind of cute.
Sometimes you just have to have fun. A company in Japan has fashioned a tank vase inspired from the anime Girls und Tanks. The vase is from a scene in which character Hana Isuzu made such an arrangement. This vase was limited to only 100 pieces and quickly sold out on pre-order, for 12,960 Yen or approximately $108. I don’t know if I would spend that much on this, but it is a fun item to see made.

The village of Hibiki in Oyama, Oita, has produced a new season of wine that is Attack on Titans inspired. The wine is plum wine and will feature artwork from series creator Hajime Isayama. The special connection this all has is that Isayama’s hometown is Hibiki. The artwork on the bottles when set side by side will form an image of Levi and Erwin. If you have a friend that lives in Japan and can get these for you or you happen to be over there and happen to find them they will set you back 3.780 Yen or approximately $32.00.
