Otaku International

For those who remember my post a few days ago about Curemaid Cafe Gurren Lagann Cosplay, well here is a somewhat relevant and related news. This news maybe somewhat slightly late since the event has already started, but since it will be lasting for a while longer I assumed it would be relevant to post it for those who are interested.

The Tokyo Anime Center announced that it will be holding an exhibit of original art work from the popular anime “Tengen Toppu Gurren Lagann.” In addition to the theatrical rendition of the first part of the series, scheduled to hit Japanese theaters September 6, the exhibit commemorates the first bound collection of Gurren Lagann artwork. Admission to the exhibit is free, however the Anime Center will be offering a variety of limited edition goods and special contests for customers. The exhibit will be on display until September 21.

CureMaid Cafe has a promotional event for all the Gurren Lagann fans out there. This event will last from Friday 22nd August and will last till 15th September. Customers can get to try specifically designated menus as well as purchase character goods from the cafe. For those who are going to be in Japan during this length of time, then maybe you have the opportunity to try out this interesting event at the cafe. It sure looks good in my eyes and I wish I could go.

Here is a video showing a tour-like display of the cafe:
