It’ll sell an array of Hololive merchandise, with particular emphasis on Usada Pekora.

Those picked will be issued an entry ticket by December 23rd.

Merchandise at the Usada Pekora Year of the Rabbit store will consist of bromides (special photo cards of celebrities and characters) to buttons to key chains, standees, and a pouch that mimics the appearance of Pekora’s carrots. People that spend a certain amount on goods will receive randomized bromides as a gift. Those who spend at least 3,300 Yen ( $24 USD) on Hololive-related goods (like CDs and disc media), will receive a visor hat with rabbit ears.
