Exhibit for the Anime “I Have Few Friends NEXT” Opens in Osaka

Beginning on May 25, an exhibit for the anime I Have Few Friends NEXT opened in Osaka. Held at Gee Store Osaka Annex, the exhibit includes reproduced pictures from the anime, character concept art, post recording scripts, and many more goods on display. Furthermore, limited edition products are being sold, as well as other goods being sold in advance. Even though the TV anime has ended, the series has managed to become highly popular, and it seems many fans are attending the exhibit.

At the exhibit are many items that can’t be seen anywhere else, including cuts from the anime’s settings, billboards of the characters, outfits, and more. Because the exhibit is free, fans can enjoy it at their leisure.

One of the limited items available at the exhibit that is especially worth noting is the “‘I Have Few Friends NEXT’ Original Picture Book - The Neighbors Club Activity Album.” This 240-page book features cuts chosen and compiled from all 12 episodes of the anime. For fans of the anime, this book is an indispensable item. Another charming item is a B2-size tapestry featuring Yozora and Sena. This illustration was drawn specifically for an event that was held recently called “Let’s Go to the Neighbors Club!” In addition to these, other noteworthy products include a “scarf towel” that uses a cut from the anime’s ending and a reversible fan.

A full lineup of goods are also being sold in advance at the exhibit. One dazzling item is a big towel that comes in two stimulating varieties: one of Yozora and one of Kobato. These two characters are also featured on two versions of a “dokidoki cushion cover.” Each side of these cushions feature a different illustration, so you can choose the one that suits your mood. Another cool item is the “Yozora full graphic T-shirt,” which features big illustrations of Yozora on each side. Those who wear this T-shirt will definitely turn heads. Those who spend more than 1,000 yen at the exhibit will receive an original, not-for-sale postcard featuring the lovely Yozora and Sena. The exhibit is being held now until June 16.
