On April 26th, the Akiba Mikoshi was officially lifted up for its first inspection tour on Akihabara streets. Products and characters related to The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya and Neon Genesis Evangelion, the two animes that have changed the industry in the past twenty years, could clearly be seen on Akiba Mikoshi. Carefully selected mangas ( Lucky ☆ Star Volume 1), magazines, novels, figurines, video games, electronics, PC components, and storage media were placed on the Mikoshi, as well.
