Shopping Guide
Hatsune Miku, a new-age virtual idol who has been popular ever since Vocaloid software first launched, is now on a T-card. The “Hatsune Miku x T-card” is useable at Tsutaya and other shops that sell books, videos, and music. Puti Devil, an illustrator highly-regarded for drawing cute female art, was in charge of the card’s design. Now, you can place Miku in your wallet, always close at hand.
The T-card is used to accumulate points from cooperating businesses throughout Japan and online. Users can receive limited coupons for use in participating shops and acquire points from campaigns and games. Point cards are widely used among consumers in Japan. Also, you can use them with DVD and CD rentals from Tsutaya. They are particularly easy to use for anime, film, or music fans.
The “Hatsune Miku x T-Card” is most suitable for those fond of anime, characters, and music. The card will release on June 11, and pre-orders are currently being accepted. According to Tsutaya, there are plans for a premium limited project uniquely applying to the collaboration. Recently, items for creators have been introduced one after another and precious items for fans have been announced ahead of release. Details on these will be released very soon. Tsutaya wants to support creators through this collaborative T-card by allowing fans to directly take part in raising awareness of the works at the center of young people’s hearts and spreading Miku culture and consumer-generated media.
