The Tanabata story tells of the annual reunion of two lovers in the Milky Way. Originally a Chinese legend, it made its way to Japan long ago and is the inspiration behind the Japanese Tanabata Festival, celebrated on July 7 (and August 7 in some areas).
The Otaku Expo Tanabata Festival is an annual anime convention organized by Otakuzine, featuring a variety of exciting activities, including a cosplay competition, exhibition booths, a band tournament, and even a cat and dog cosplay competition. This year, Uni Mitsubishi Pencil was proud to be a part of this vibrant celebration, showcasing our innovative writing tools and engaging with the passionate anime and art community. We were thrilled to see so many attendees expressing their creativity with our products while enjoying the festivities!
