With Camel taking care of everything kawaii in Japan, Snakie and Mr. Snake led the rest of the Aranzi Caravan crew up the West Coast to wrap up their U.S. tour with a trip to the City by the Bay, San Francisco. Starting this Saturday, June 6th, the Aranzi Aranzo Caravan will set camp at Books Kinokuniya located in the Kinokuniya Building in San Francisco’s Japantown, where they will once again have one-of-a-kind displays and unique wares to sell.
This will be your last chance to experience the Caravan before it heads back home to Japan. Kinokuniya will be stocked will all your favorite Aranzi titles, so come experience the cute crafts and goodies first hand.
Check out photos from Snakie’s recent adventures in LA and NYC.


This Friday marks the beginning of the three full days of non-stop manga and anime at NEW YORK COMIC-CON. Vertical will be there in the main hall at booth number 1626 so be sure to stop by on Saturday and Sunday. We’ll be arriving late on Friday due to schedule conflicts but we’ll be there in time for our 6:00 panel in room 1A22. There will be a giveaway at the end of the panel so be sure to check it, but if you can’t make it, there will be more free stuff at the booth! We hope to see you all in your best cosplay at the show!
