Posted by: Shin

The Yokohoma Big World China Museum has just recently offered Macross Frontier themed manjuu(steamed buns) which goes on sale till the 19th of October. Various show related merchandise were also on sale, along with cosplay costume rental.

One must be patient before being savoring Ranka's hot buns. This is to prevent people like me from raiding the entire counter and clearing it all in one fell swoop.

I HNNNNNNG'ed just looking at the poster.

And according to the article, about 30-40 people were already at it when the counter opened for business. Never change, Japan. Talk about selling like hotcakesbuns!

A closer look at the counter. Is that you, Nanase?

Holy shit! Genuine(?) autographs from Ranka and Sheryl endorsing these buns!

Standard packaging is standard. Probably costs too much to have the same container Ranka used in the show, I guess.

If it looks ordinary, it probably tastes so. I'm just wondering what that orange nipple thing is.

:P :P

Every purchase entitles the customer to a free sticker.

I want that Valkyrie backpack.

nyanbun-12.jpeg

Needs more green wig. She even has the iSlug on her shoulder.

First Ranka bentos and now this! Naturally, I was very excited over it being a Ranka fanboy, but damn, at 500 yen a pop, I'd rather get the locally made equivalent for a tenth of the price. Kidding! I've fallen victim to the power of otaku commercialism and would love to try this, just like every other anime food out on the market, though I found melon pan to have tasted like crap and the chocolate cornet equally as shit, but I digress. I now return to finishing Macross Ace Frontier.

  3. Why is alto’s clothes with Ranka’s… If Ozma found out what they were actually doing at Nyan Nyan’s…

    I want a 1:1 VF-25. Armoured Pack naturally. On second thoughts, scratch that. A 1:1 Macross Quarter sounds better.

  4. Should have upgrades the container to charge more money and claim that the tin is a collectible or limited edition or other some such… :lol:

  9. That “orange nipple thing” looks like a macademia nut.

    :cry: Why don’t we have this in the US? Yeah, sure we can get that stuff here, but it isn’t the same as when it’s Macross themed. :sad:

  15. That does not look like Ranka’s signature! FORGERY!! :shock:

  16. Manjuu are so delicious ;-; In America there aren’t any things like this at all ;-; The only place I get my steamed buns are the Asian Food Market ^^; But it would be awesome to have a shop like this, even in the streets of New York City. Hopefully, one day.

  17. Me wants to work here ^^ (or any anime store please! gosh they always want to pick japanese people or sth??)

    One of the reasons I want to work in Japan for a while, I would end up being a complete shopping whor*

  18. The nipple things are probably umeboshi. XD :razz:

  19. OMG i SO want to eat that :eek:

  20. I would like to have a taste of those manju buns…. if they were chicken fillings since i hate pork. :sad:

  21. Would you really turn down some manjus offered by the moe overlord Ranka, AALR???
    I wonder if i could get them to make me some Taiyaki and go “Uguuu”

  22. Wow, now anime is becoming part of our lives, that is if our lives include Tuna buns.

  23. @hoshi

    I hate Japan and their limited offers. :evil:

    @Kabitzin

    Japan can sell anything to me just by plastering Ranka on it. :oops:

    @Di Gi Kazune

    Ranka end confirmed then. :twisted: The closest thing you can get to those are the plamo kits they were exhibiting on that very same day in conjunction with the Macross Frontier Galaxy concert. :razz:

    @Crusader

    Indeed, a wasted opportunity really. :oops:

    @Sojourner

    Should I be happy that everyone knows me that well?

    @ghostlightning

    You have 3 more days to buy yours. :neutral:

    @Mini

    Looks fresh to me, even though they have a tendency to take the easy way out with these by just reheating them or something. :mad:

    @Setsuna

    They could have quadrupled sales by having Megumi-chan promoting them. :oops:

    @Hoshi

    They don’t usually put nuts on these sort of things, but good guess anyway. Exactly, it “tastes” so much different when it’s based on an anime. :razz:

    @EvilDevil

    You can have her, I don’t like glasses girls. :???: MELON PAN SUCKS! SHANA IS A CON!

    @issa-sa

    Awww, and I was going to ask you to go there for me. :sad:

    @Aoshi

    She doesn’t have the boobs to pull off Nanase. :twisted:

    @Kanzeon

    There was; different venue though. :razz:

    @biankita

    Lychee and tuna? @_@ Like I told Kanzeon, they were having a Macross concert nearby. :razz:

    @Mika

    Good observation, you’re probably right. :razz:

    @Mitoko

    It just won’t taste the same either way; I have these sort of buns virtually every week, but I’d kill for some Ranka buns. :sad:

    @blissmo

    I hate rice. :razz:

    @yaku

    Your only chance is through the home stay program which my friend went for. She did speak Japanese too, so that helps a lot. Otherwise, chances of them taking in a gaijin is low. :razz:

    @wolfx

    Again, odd combo, but I guess it’s likely. :???:

    @James

    I’d settle for those stickers. :lol:

    @Anime Loving Republican

    No idea what chicken filling would taste like since we only get the pork variety here, though I personally prefer those with the red bean paste. :razz:

    @Dularc

    Probably at a different event. :lol:

    @Hynavian

    And I won’t be able to savor them. :cry:

  24. Damn it Shin, now i demand you dress like that at AFA08 if you’re going.

    Aoshi’s last blog post..Delayed Review(Part 2)

  25. If you nyan nyan it, they will come…

    TheBigN’s last blog post..On IRC: To Be Broken Is To Be?

  26. “Damn it Shin, now i demand you dress like that at AFA08 if you’re going.”
    I veto that proposition, under the United Nations UDHR Article 5 “No one shall be subjected to torture or to cruel, inhuman, or degrading treatment or punishment.”, that means me Shin…

  27. Hahaha Nope, Japan never changes. And their is really good points to that.

    I’m going to Yokohama next year for a exchange =D anyways love the pictures and that looks yummy.
