The Akibayabai Executive Committee (General Producer: Shiro Hasegawa), which holds the subcalfe “Akibayabai” that spreads Japanese culture from Akihabara to the world, has decided on the outline of the first series of original collaboration goods to commemorate this event. I will inform you that I did.
At “Akibayabai,” where top runners representing Japan in each genre, such as anime, manga, games, idols, and cosplayers gather, each collaboration title will be available on the official online store (https://www. .akibayabai. shop/), and at venues during the period.
For the production of goods, the popular idol group “AKB48”, anime, games, comics, the next generation girls band project “BanG Dream! Girls Band Party!”, The popular VTuber group “Buispop!” Participation was decided as the first step. Please refer to the official online store for an overview of each title and goods to be produced. In addition, the second and subsequent collaboration goods sales outlines will be announced as soon as they are decided.
What is “Akibayabai”?
Akiba Yabai will be held for the first time in August 2022 as a subculture festival that spreads world-class Japanese culture centered on anime, manga, and games from Akihabara to the world.
During the period, top runners of each genre, such as anime, manga, games, idols, cosplayers, etc., will gather and participate in this “festival” with their projects. They are starting with the idol group AKB48, in addition to the popular card game Vanguard, Bandori! Girls band party! (game/anime), Dead by Daylight (game), Alice Gear Aegis (game), Pop Team Epic (anime), Attack on Titan (manga), Bisupop! (VTuber), HOLSTERS (VTuber), UPROAR!! (VTuber) and other gorgeous titles line up. We hope that Akihabara, one of the cities that embodies Japanese culture, will become a detonator that revitalizes Japan by revitalizing it as a real place.
In Akihabara, a city where subcultures gather, please look forward to the unique Akihabara festival that will create a collaboration for this limited time and excite subculture fans worldwide.
