The Animate Online Shop is running a limited Mikadono Sisters fair from Sep 4 to Sep 21 (JST), featuring brand-new “White Dress & Flowers” art, advance preorders, and postcard bonuses. This guide helps overseas buyers choose shipping (direct vs. forwarder), optimize bonuses in ¥1,100 steps, and avoid duplicate purchases once AMNIBUS sales begin on Sep 22.
Overseas Buying Guide for Animate Online Shop Fair
The fair lives on Animate’s special page with new goods based on the “White Dress & Flowers” art. During the window you can place advance preorders and earn postcard bonuses tied to your cart total. Because availability and shipping vary by country, create an account first, set your address in English, and save a valid payment method.
Optimizing Postcard Bonuses with ¥1,100 Cart Steps
For every ¥1,100 (tax-in) spent on eligible fair items, you receive one random postcard (8 designs), bundled with delivery. Build carts in ¥1,100 increments to maximize bonuses, and avoid mixing any items marked as not eligible. Since postcards are random and first-come-first-served, decide your target count before checkout.
Direct Ship vs. Forwarder: Picking the Right Route
Direct shipping (if available in your region) is simplest—confirm fees, carriers, and delivery windows at checkout. If not available, pick a reputable package forwarder, follow their address format precisely, and check repacking, insurance, and service fees. Proxy purchasing is a last resort and often has higher commissions and stricter return rules.
Payment, Currency, and Import Taxes: What to Expect
Cards may add FX fees when paying in JPY. Depending on your country and shipping method, VAT/GST and customs duties may be collected on delivery or at checkout. Keep your invoice and tracking in case customs requires documentation.
AMNIBUS From Sep 22: Non-Glitter Items and Overlaps
From Sep 22, AMNIBUS plans to sell non-glitter trading can badges (8 designs). Animate’s fair features an Animate-exclusive glitter version. If you want both, map out your sets to avoid double-buying and note that each site has different shipping policies and timelines.
Stock Alerts, Order Timing, and Last-Minute Checks
Big acrylic stands, life-size tapestries, and other hot SKUs can move fast. Turn on shop notifications, check the fair page before you combine orders, and expect quantity limits. Event details may change—recheck the special page right before purchase.
Order Smart and Track Your Bonus Progress
Create your Animate account, plan carts in ¥1,100 steps to optimize postcards, and confirm shipping to your region (or select a trusted forwarder). If you’re also eyeing AMNIBUS from Sep 22, list the sets you want so you don’t double-buy. Recheck the special page before you hit purchase—then enjoy the “White Dress & Flowers” lineup.
