posted on by Jennifer Sherman
Anime News Network's merchandise coverage sponsored by Tokyo Otaku Mode.
The Shiraito Shuzō company has been Tiger & Bunny to offer alcohol inspired by the anime's title characters.
Kotetsu T. Kaburagi (Wild Tiger) is inspiring the "Kotetsu" Japanese rice wine with a refreshing dry taste. On the other hand, Barnaby Brooks Jr. (Bunny) is inspiring the "Usagi" (Rabbit) plum wine with the sweetness of fruit and honey, followed by a bitter aftertaste. Both wines will be available individually or as a pair in special Tiger & Bunny boxes.
Shiraito Shuzō's booth at the AnimeJapan event will offer advance sales of the set of both types of sake on March 24-25, and regular sales of all the items will begin on the company's website on April 1. The set of one "Kotetsu" and one "Usagi" wine will cost 5,400 yen ($51), and each individual variety will cost 3,500 yen ($33).
Sunrise's original anime franchise is getting a new anime series confirmed that they are not working on the series.
