Taiko no Tatsujin x Rakuten Eagles
You know the marketing effort for Taiko is getting super heated up when it shacks up with a baseball team of all things!
From July 22nd to August 28th, there will be a collaboration event at the Miyagi Baseball Stadium, which hapens to be the Rakuten Eagles' home base. Don-chan will show up on the big screens during baseball games at this time to act as cheerleader!
Kind of like this. Pretty neat eh? Pretend those big notes are baseballs and knock them all out of the park!
That aside, a pop-up store will be at the stadium to sell exclusive merchandise with Don-chan in his nice new Rakuten Eagles uniform.
This includes keychains (as shown above), clear files and other goodies. If you happen to be in the area (and are a big fan of Japanese baseball), why not go have a look? You might be scoring yourself some really nice souvenirs!
Details of the collab can be found here.
