One of the best anime goods stores in Seoul has finally launched an online store!
They will be selling exclusive collaboration merch, and exclusive merch in general. Right now you can buy the Fate/Extella Link game through them, and some limited King of Prism items.
This could be very good news for anime fans who live outside of Seoul, as the store offers really awesome products that might not be available in many stores outside of the city.
If you want to learn more about the store you can read our review of their collaboration event with Fate/Extella Link here
From August 29th to September 20th, Hongdae Dungeon will have a special collaboration to commemorate the release of the Korean version of Fate/Extella Link.
The store is beautifully decorated with real size stands of the servants which will be on rotation week by week. There is also a live demo of the game, which looks amazing! There is also some limited merch you can get.
There are no special drinks, but each drink purchase comes with a coaster.
There are also special edition Clear Cards available for the first 100 people every day.
If you preorder the game, you will also get the beautiful poster below.
The store will also have people who “specialize” in the game, so if you want to try it out or see a demo they can help you out.
I am a big fan of the Fate universe, mostly because of character design. The diverse designs of the servants is something really appealing to me, so I was super excited to be around the cutouts. The screen at the cafe area is playing images of the game, so fans of the Fate franchise will surely enjoy the experience!
The game releases in Korea on September 13th. Take a look at the E3 trailer below:

Bluelounge Maestro has released a new menswear collection that proves that Anime and Fashion can exist in perfect unison while still stying Stylish.
The line features t-shirts, polos, socks, and more elements that use the imagery of Robot Taekwon V to create classic pieces with a retro anime twist.
Robot Taekwon V is Korea’s most beloved robot avenger, and is a staple of many Korean’s childhoods. The store’s bag’s even play on this fact by pointing out “Do you remember him and your childhood?”.
Take a look at the collection below:
This weekend Comic World is back in Seoul for its 158th edition. This is an event that hosts many artists so they can sell merchandise, most of it anime inspired. All the artists are incredibly talented, and there is probably something for everyone!
The event takes place multiple times a year both in Seoul and Busan. If you don’t have time to make it this time, the next one in Seoul is in October. Details will be below.
The venue aT center was perfect for this event. I got her pretty much an time of opening and although there was a lot of people, it wasn’t hard to get around.
The event features mostly original artists, but there were a couple official booth such as Wacom, Love and Producer, and Forever 7 Days. The video game booths were offering free merch as long as you logged in and showed them your profile. The lines however were incredibly long so I didn’t try.
Although the artists for the most part had art of anime that is popular right now, there really is something incredibly exciting about seeing so much beautiful art all in one space!
If you would like to see my haul, please look at the video above. I definitely did some damage to my wallet but it was my first time attending an event like this so it was definitely worth it.
