    Jujutsu Kaisen S.H.Figuarts and PROPLICA Coming to US

    The new fall season of anime has started, and one of the newest anime to grace us is Jujutsu Kaisen. Created by Gege Akutami, Jujutsu Kaisen is set in Tokyo, and revolves around Itadori Yuuji, a boy with tremendous strength. One night, at school, a curse attacks Itadori's classmates, and  Yuuji leaps in to save them. While fighting, he consumes a special grade curse, the finger of Ryomen Sukuna (King of Curses), to defeat it. Now sharing a body with the King of Curses, Yuuji is admitted to Tokyo Metropolitan Jujutsu School, where he learns about other curses with his fellow classmate sorcerers, while searching for the remaining curse pieces of Ryomen Sukuna. You can watch this brand-new anime on Crunchyroll, with new episodes every Friday.

    With new anime comes new merchandise.

    Demon Slayer PROPLICA Now Available for Pre-Order

    Coming to the US in 2021 is PROPLICA's Tanjiro Kamado's Nichirin sword from the hit-anime Kimetsu No Yaiba, aka, Demon Slayer by Bandai Spirits. 

    "PROPLICA" is a fusion of the words "Prop" and "Replica," this category has been garnered from decades of Bandai role-play category know-how and employs state-of-the-art manufacturing technology to bring realistic prop replicas to discerning collectors.

    Over the years we have seen other PROPLICA products, such as the Keyblade (Kingdom Hearts), Dragon Radar (Dragon Ball), and many Sailor Moon rods and compacts released long after the series, but nothing as current as Demon Slayer. Let us take a look at the Nichirin sword!
