Dengeki Bunko Celebrates 15 Years
Dengeki Bunko recently held a Fall Festival to celebrate 15 years of bringing Japan manga, light novels, magazines, & anime adaptations of their manga & light novels. The event was filled with fans eager to get autographs, & many who arrived cosplayed as their favorite Dengeki character. Series such as Dokuro-chan, Spice & Wolf, Shakugan no Shana, Baccano, Boogiepop Phantom, Strike Witches, even the more recent ToraDora which recently began its tsundere anime series were all there in one form or another.
Among the interesting products at the event were new nedoroid figures, including an extremely cute one of Yoshika from Strike Witches. Other nendoroid figures were from Shana, Haruhi Suzumiya, ToraDora, & even Vocaloid characters. But perhaps most interesting wasn't a figure, but rather Horo-tan canned juice. That's right, cans of juice featuring the heroine of Spice & Wolf. Comes in both apple & honey flavors. Wonder which one tastes more like Horo?
