Convenience store chain Lawson is running a “K-ON!! Fair” featuring various K-ON! themed goods and free gifts.
The event will start (in all 8,847 Japanese stores) on the 19th of October and conclude on the 29th of November. On offer are a variety of K-ON! themed foodstuffs, illustrations, trinkets and apparently even a figure.
Fans will doubtless be hoping this does not end up like the ill-fated Evangelion Lawson store – the choice to make it a nationwide event probably precludes this, although the opposite problem might be in evidence – with so many stores it seems there may only be a dozen fans per store.

And here I was, hoping I'd never seen any K-ON! news again after it ended.
Well, fuck me and my idealistic expectations.
K-on will live forever...
... for the two next years at least, just like Haruhi and Lucky Star
Thanks to the classmates of Class 3-2, the fandom shall go on like Touhou's..
Nope you're wrong! Haruhi has a storyline, Lucky Star has the punchlines, K-ON! has no reedeming value whatsoever
K-ON is the Spice Girls of Anime. Popular but no redeeming value
^ if it didn't have any value, I don't think KyoAni would have loved it to the point of making a second season for it on-the-go, while Lucky Star still doesn't get one despite being way more popular
Rabid otaku will rip it to the ground, I bet.
FUCKING LOVE THE LAWSON
Every time I'm in Japan, I'm at the Lawson. Wonderful place.
K-ON is THE poster child for tea shops. Why not go for the obvious some more.
I hope they sell Mugi pickled radishes :)
PERFECT! I'll be in Japan tomorrow til Oct 28th & there's one near by my brother's apartment! I can't wait!
Well, I just feel silly now, since I thought it might have had something to do with lawyering from the title (yes I did read it) as I've never heard of this chain of convenience stores before.
they're all over japan, but so is ampm and 7-11,lol
Man this and 7-11 were the best in Japan! Lawlson!
fuck I leave japan just before that
life sucks...
dozen fans per store? Underestimating the power of moe moe will cause trouble
NGE wasn't moe
K-ON! is moe
therefore this will be huge success,
and probably the reason why homicides will increase in japan for said week.
You know the NGE store closed because of too many customers? I wouldn't call that no success.
How exactly did Evangelion failed? Evangelion's problem was that it was more successful than what they wanted to be.
Like lambs to the slaughter. Oh the horror...
Otaku rush. Like a zerg rush, just bigger and more destructive. ^_^
And stoppable....
Only, zergs are cuter.
I'd prefer the KEKEKEKEKEKEKE to the MOEMOEMOEMOEMOE.
Too bad it wasn't at a home center but a konbini.
Since they had that episode, thought they might sell turtles and shelves at absurd prices...
There are no absurd prices. When otaku are involved everything will be bought. ^_^
I think you meant, "Otakus will buy everything for absurd prices."
as disturbing as ur comment sounds....I actually agree...:3
Could work quite well, but I guess one store per bigger city would be a better idea. Well, they sure learned from the Evangelion fiasco. ^_^
In such heavily fan-based shops, the great majority of purchases sould be made only in the first couple of days/weeks after its opening cause of the novelty.
If they had kept the Eva shop open and only hired extra employees they would have seen for themselves.
The city's police force should put their riot control on standby.
*nods in agreement*
I'm going to see if my Japanese friend can buy me some K-ON! goodies there when it opens next month~
*sees the negative*
Hmm...I'm not talking about anime girl armpits and I sure as hell aren't advertising hentai...
Which leads to the conclusion that the person who gave me that is jealous because he doesn't have a Japanese friend to buy him anime goods straight from the source...
Down-voting me because I have a Japanese friend and you don't won't get you those K-ON! goodies, Parsee~
Go hide under your bridge, you jealous elven troll~
@Anonymous17:13 23/09/2010
I'm only arrogant and proud when it comes to hentai...
What I said in that 1st post is as normal as you'll get from me...
And that said, being annoyed of my arrogance of having a friend in Japan to get me anime goodies means that you are jealous...
Go make a Japanese friend to get you anime goods from the source...
Annoyance has a connection to jealousy, you know...And envy...
Then we'll be on even ground...
Heh...And here I was making a post without mentioning futanari, armpits, or any hentai genres...
I DO sound ARROGANT when I'm not posting anime girl armpits and advertising/ranting about them...
...
...
...
*eyes the porn/hentai ads on the sides of the page topics*
...
...
...
Who wouldn't get horny from that..?
*sighs*
I guess it isn't me to be posting anything not about armpits, futanari, or guro...
Fine...
In the next K-ON! topic, I'll post loads of K-ON! armpit exposure in a zip file...
(and maybe 1 or 2 K-ON! futa/yuri doujins involving Mio f*cking Azunyan as well as the rest of the band...As well as some guro pics~)
Maybe they're just annoyed you're being arrogant. I know I am.
From Ohio to Japan. lol
Pretty cool and odd promo.
Disgusting otakus
No, otakus are rich and beautiful!!!
(come on, vote me down! ;)
Rich, yes.
Beauti- what?
>Beauti- what?
actually yes, there are some beautiful ones I met here
Usually the most talented ones (in drawings). Otakus who are not able to create anything tend to be really ugly.
There must be some kind of connection... life is so unfair...
I feel the same way darkrockslizer
I, for one, think of myself as a very ugly person, and even uglier from inside. Other people don't think so for some reason. I guess it's just that there are a lot of even worse looking people in this world, that's all.
Maybe anon needs to get out more.....
Maybe they're beautiful on the inside?
Err.. The NGE Lawson was a huge success actually. It's just that its "success" eventually turned into disaster... thanks to the legion of fans themselves.
... I'm about to spend $100+ and this thing happens.
Oh well... Sucks to have budgeting on your mind.
fyi I meant a bigger success than NGE
I disagree, K-UGH! isn't moe it's moeoverkill. I'ma buy 5 packs of K-UGH! toilet papers while I'm at it, one for each character to wipe my S**t. Anyone wanna be that SanCon will post another K-UGH! article within the next five succeeding articles?
Is this Sankaku Complex or Sankaku KONplex?
check the RG -->
you just lost the game.
Nope! you lost. The fifth article after this one is K-ON! related. Sankako really is in cahoots with TrollAni
