What’s more, you can connect additional cases together, creating an entire display wall if you so desire. ▼ That made the Cinderella fit here even more of a joyous surprise! Saya has long been looking for a way to display all her beautiful cardboard coasters, but square-shaped frames small enough for the job are incredibly hard to find. Incredibly easy to use, all you have to do is lift the cover, pop your coaster in and then click the lid shut over it.
These are perfect for protecting and displaying all those cardboard coasters that come free with drinks at themed cafes. Next up is another god-like “Cinderella fit” item that Saya will definitely be purchasing more of in future: the “ Collection Case“. Saya absolutely loved the way it looked, and she also appreciated the dust protection it provided for her precious items. Saya had quite a few of these so being able to slide them into one collection was like creating a mini art book. Next up, we have the “ My Collection Mini Shikishi File“, which is designed to be used exclusively for the “Mini Shikishi”, square cardboard mementos, often given out as freebies to visitors when they enter an event. The attention to detail is incredibly impressive, as you can choose to display the keychains with or without the paper tags that come with them, and the auxiliary hooks on the back allow you to hang keychains with longer straps as well. Look how perfectly these keychains are displayed! Saya couldn’t help but let out a squeal of delight at how gorgeous these looked in their new case. You can tell these goods are perfectly thought out with the needs of otaku in mind, and that’s true as well with this next item, the “ My Collection Key Ring Display Case“. ▼ This is what’s known as a “ Cinderella fit“, when an item fits perfectly, just like Cinderella’s glass slipper when it’s slipped onto her foot in the fairytale. The best thing about this product, though, is the claws in each corner, which allow you to slide the file in easily and keep it in place without damaging it, even if you choose to keep it in its plastic covering for dust protection. The only problem is, they’re not always easy to display, as frames can be bulky and expensive, but this Seria item is specially designed for clear files, with a slim, lightweight design, and the option to either have it hang or stand, vertically or horizontally. ▼ First up, she purchased a “ My Collection A4 Clear Holder Stand“, which is absolutely perfect for displaying clear files.Ĭlear files are a beautiful and affordable way to collect manga or anime art, making them a standard purchase for many otaku. Luckily for Saya there was a Seria not far from her place, so she was able to stop by and pick up everything she needed to exhibit her Demon Slayer loot.īranded as “Wotatomo Series” (“Geek’s Friend Series”) or “My Collection” goods, these Seria products are designed to cater to the needs of otaku, and Saya was super impressed with the range available. Hopping online to find a solution to her problem, she came across an in-the-know tip from the otaku community about 100-yen chainstore Seria, which has a corner dedicated to items for collectors.
