World Hobby Fair 2011 Winter

The 2011 Winter World Hobby Fair (WHF) took place over the past weekend on January 16, 2011 in Osaka, Japan.

The WHF is a bi-annual event held in Japan and features the latest in manga, anime and games. It is co-organized by Shogakukan, the publisher of Weekly Shonen Sunday (the weekly magazine on which Detective Conan is serialized), and is open to the public for free. Here are some pictures from the event:

As usual, a huge Conan figurine can be seen at the event.

Detective Conan T-Shirts

2 more shirts with Gosho Aoyama manga/anime's famous lines on sale this month

---

At the end of the month, the cosplay outfit store chain Cospa will begin selling three new Detective Conan (Case Closed) T-shirts, including a Black Organization (Kuro-Zukume no Soshiki) one that doubles as a face mask of the manga's antagonists. The Black Organization T-shirt simply has the name of the international criminal organization from Gosho Aoyama's manga and anime printed in Japanese on the front. However, if the wearer pulls the shirt over his or her head, the inside of the shirt reveals the silhouette of one of the manga's mysterious foes as a disguise.
