~The First Installment of the Sega x animate Global Cross-Border Project~
As the first installment of a year-long collaboration project between Animate Co., Ltd. and SEGA Corporation featuring SEGA Group IPs, we are hosting the “Sonic the Hedgehog” ONLY SHOP (Exclusive Shop), Fair and Gratte.
We will create opportunities for fans to experience the appeal of eight globally popular IPs owned by Sega and its group companies firsthand through exhibitions, game demos, merchandise sales, and Cafe Gratte collaborations at over 140 animate stores in Japan and overseas.
For the first title in the series, “Sonic the Hedgehog,” we will host dedicated shops and fairs featuring exhibits related to the series at overseas locations, while locations in Japan will host fairs and “Gratte” events. At the fairs, customers who purchase related merchandise will receive a special postcard. Additionally, at participating “Gratte” locations, customers can purchase “Graphic Lattes”—drinks topped with cream featuring printed characters—and “Icing Cookies.”
We will continue to hold collaborations with various titles in the future, so please stay tuned for further updates.
