● Four Key Upgrades in the Redesign

1. Relive the First Book’s World: A Playful, Fully Redesigned Interface

The entire site has been redesigned to reflect the charm of 'Pandorobou.' The top page is structured as an interactive scroll experience, allowing users to relive the story of the first picture book as they scroll down.

To make the atmosphere and narrative more immersive, various motion effects have been added. The goal is to create a site that remains engaging and enjoyable with every visit.

2. Fun, Flip-Through Character Introductions

With the series introducing more unique characters over time, the character introduction page has been updated from single-character displays to a comprehensive overview. This makes it easier for fans to discover new characters they may not yet know.

3. Instant Access to What You Care About: New Tag Function on News and Book Pages

A new tagging system has been added to the news and book pages. This allows users to quickly navigate from announcements about events, merchandise, or new releases to the topics they are most interested in.

4. Find Your Favorite Goods Instantly: Enhanced Searchability on Product Pages

Responding to fan requests like 'I want to find that item!', the product page now includes category filters and a search function. These improvements make it easier to locate specific 'Pandorobou' merchandise among the wide range of available products.

Through this newly redesigned official website, we will continue to deliver the world of 'Pandorobou' to fans.
