Cafe latte! Cafe mocha! Cappuccino! (Greetings)
Valentine's Day has come again this year!!
In 2020, Akihabara hosted a Valentine's Day distribution event with various content, but this year, due to the influence of the coronavirus, things feel a little different than usual.
Although the number of events is limited, we have compiled information on Valentine's Day fairs held in the Akihabara area.

Here is a summary of last year's Valentine's Day event in Akihabara:

2021 Akihabara Valentine's Fair Event Information

The Quintessential Quintuplets ∬ x Atre Akihabara Valentine's Fair

A Quintessential Quintuplets ∬ fair will be held in the event space on the second floor of Atre Akihabara 1.
This time, postcards will be distributed exclusively to merchandise purchasers.
The goods on sale include clear files, tumblers, tapestries, and more, all featuring Valentine's original illustration of the quintuplets wearing hoodies.
A hoodie with the same design as the one the quintuplets are wearing will also be sold in two colors: black and gray.

Please note that admission to some dates is by advance lottery, and visit dates and times are fixed.
Of course, there are also dates and times when you can visit without entering the lottery in advance, so don't worry!

In addition, for those who find it difficult to go out, the hoodie can also be purchased online, and it seems that a can badge will be included exclusively with this online purchase.

As I was writing this, on February 5thStore sales have been discontinued and only available onlineThere was an announcement that this would be the case.
There's nothing there if you go to the store, so be careful.

Akihabara Valentine's Day Goods Mail Order Information

Since there are few Valentine's Day fairs held in Akihabara, I looked into online shopping information for Valentine's Day related goods.

"AmiAmi," a hobby shop famous for selling figurines online and also has a physical store in Akihabara, is running its women's brand "amie," which will be releasing the "Granblue Fantasy Chocolate Gift."
This year's items include chocolates, enamel pouches and bag charms.
As for variations, there will be items featuring 15 popular characters from last year's Granblue Fantasy Valentine's Day/White Day Campaign.

A Valentine's Day without a GochiUsa event

Speaking of Valentine's Day, a chocolate distribution event is held every year in Akihabara, and otakus can be seen lining up all over the place...
Due to the state of emergency declared due to the coronavirus, it seems that Valentine's chocolates will not be distributed this year.
It would probably be wise not to do this to prevent overcrowding, but it does feel a little lonely.
Well, I guess I'll just stay at home and quietly spin the Valentine's Gacha.

Although there is no Gochiusa chocolate distribution event, GochiusaBirthday Celebration CampaignThe event is still ongoing, and from February 14th, you can get a free Lize coaster with the purchase or pre-order of designated products!!
