Madoka Magica is one of the most popular anime titles around so its no surprise that fans might wanna go to one of their events if they ever visit town. When the Madoka Magica Exhibition visited Osaka yesterday, May 17, 2014, many fans were excited about it, so excited that they endured an hour of waiting in line just to see the exhibits as well as get their hands on some MadoMagi merchandise. The official Madoka Magica twitter account posted these images of the calm before the storm.
However, outside, people were already waiting in line, eagerly anticipating their chance to get in. Some people waited for as long as an hour to get in after the doors have opened.
While the lines outside the venue seemed peaceful, it was a different story over at the product sales area where people just could not wait to get their hands on some limited edition MadoMagi merchandise. It may not be as chaotic as the Black Friday sales in America, but it comes pretty close. Seems like the event staff were pretty overwhelmed by the sheer number of customers.
Some merchandise were also sold out very quickly
A fully painted version of Aniplex+’s Akuma Homura figure was unveiled during the event. Looks pretty good so far.
Ai Nonaka who voices Kyouko Sakura and Kaori Mizuhashi who voices Mami Tomoe made a special appearance during the event.
Before heading to Osaka, The Madoka Magica exhibition started its journey in Tokyo where long lines also prevailed.
