First Series of Collaborative Visuals Posted for Kyoto International Manga Anime Fair 2016!

The Kyoto International Manga Anime Fair Executive Committee has released new collaborative visuals between the Kyoto International Manga Anime Fair 2016 (Kyomaf), Western Japan’s biggest manga and anime trade fair which will take place on Sept. 17 and 18 in Kyoto, and several popular manga and anime!

As a part of plans to commemorate this year marking the fifth anniversary of Kyomaf, a collaboration featuring popular Kyoto sights like Fushimi Inari-taisha, the Sagano Bamboo Forest, and Nison-in, and popular manga and anime works like Black Butler, The Seven Deadly Sins, Bungo Stray Dogs, and Hozuki's Coolheadedness has been released aiming to emphasis their mutual charms.

These collaborative visuals were first released on the Kyomaf official site and Twitter, but will be expanded as promotional material at various venues and events in Kyoto from now on. The second series is expected to be released mid-July. Works and exhibitors for Kyomaf 2016 will also be announced mid-July.
