[Voice of the Animate Representative]
During the planning for the Umeda store's 1st anniversary, the conversation came up that "If we are going to make an original Animate sweet, it has to be the standard Osaka souvenir 'Tsukigesho'!" which led us to reach out to Aoki Shofuan. To ensure our customers are pleased with this collaboration, we created an original design for the package featuring Tsukigesho's official characters "Tsukiro-kun" and "Mirumo-chan" alongside Animate's promotional character "Anime Tencho." We hope everyone will love it for a long time.
Finally, thanks to the cooperation of Aoki Shofuan, this dream-like project has taken shape. We express our heartfelt gratitude.
