According to a Japanese blog of a headphone store, E-Earphone blog, the headphone, AKG K701 was sold out for the first time ever since the opening of the shop.
This is unbelievable, AKG K701 is a high performance headphone which costs 74,900yen or around RM1500. Just because Mio used the headphone in episode 5, the headphone sold out…
Not just the headphone, even the mobile phone Mio used in the same episode, NTT Docomo FOMA D902i, which is an old model of 2005, also sold out in the the used mobile phone store…
It seems that marketing in anime would boost the sales of anything especially KyoAni’s anime. So, what’s next?
