Eizan Electric Railway is set to collaborate with the Magic of Stella anime by offering one-day rail tickets and souvenir platform tickets from Dec. 3.
The rail company has already been collaborating with Houbunsha’s manga magazine Manga Time Kirara with the sightseeing train “Kirara,” but now they’ll be teaming up with the brand new anime Magic of Stella which began broadcasting in October.
Eizan Electric Railway (Eiden) is well known for these kinds of collaborations which it believes helps to boost customer numbers and also encourages the revitalisation in the Kyoto and Rakuhoku areas.
Planning: Eizan Electric Railway
Cooperation: Magic of Stella Production Company
The rigid-style one-day rail and platform tickets feature designs inspired by the Magic of Stella anime which began broadcasting on Oct. 3, 2016.
