I never saw Kiki’s Delivery Service, but fans of the Studio Ghibli animated film absolutely loved it. But even if you aren’t familiar with the movie, you will want this if you’re into jigsaw puzzles. This isn’t some flat puzzle you are used to seeing or a puzzle made out of foam that assembles into a building.

Anime and Star Wars fans will definitely want to check this out. Russian animator Dmitry Grozov aka “Ahriman” created this impressive anime trailer for A New Hope. I’m not a big fan of anime myself, but no matter what style you draw Star Wars in, Star Wars rocks.

If you are a fan of the Nintendo game franchise Splatoon, and also like anime, prepare to get excited. Word has surfaced that a Splatoon anime will be launching on YouTube on August 12. The series will be made up of shorts, not full-length episodes.

Aspiring Enforcement officers and prejudiced people will soon be a step closer to role-playing as their favorite Psycho-Pass characters, thanks to Cerevo’s upcoming life-size replica of the Dominator. The toy pistol does its best to mimic the self-restrained gun’s bells and whistles.

An unstoppable force meets an adorable object in Good Smile Company’s Nendoroid of Saitama, from the hilarious manga and anime series One Punch Man. The ~4″ figure comes with two heads, one with his standard bored expression and the other with the stereotypical intense anime face.

If you’re looking for a cheap and convenient way to dress like your favorite anime characters, hit up Etsy shop Akujin Corps. The shop sells a wide variety of plastic glasses inspired by various anime, including Gurren Lagann, Sailor Moon, Danganronpa and Kill la Kill.

DeviantArt member xuedaixun has a collection of digital paintings where she turned pictures of real cats – and a couple of dogs – into fictional characters, often wearing traditional Chinese robes and other accessories. She also made one reverse transformation, turning a picture of a person into a painting of a cat.

I’ll admit to having never read or watched any of the One Piece manga and anime series. It really doesn’t matter because I am a sucker for sweet katana swords and have been way before The Walking Dead featured one so prominently.

Guardians of the Galaxy is everywhere. Fans can’t get enough. Now is the time to cash in with toys, tie-ins and cartoons. It’s no big surprise that the Guardians crew have now been turned into anime characters and they will soon make their debut in the Japanese Marvel Disk Wars television show.

Anime fans will immediately recognize this jacket. It’s orange, black, and is embellished with the iconic Uzumaki Clan symbol from Naruto: Shippuden.

Fujimoto Hiroshi and Mitoo Abiko are legendary manga creators known for their prolific run from the 60s to the late 80s. Their most famous character is Doraemon, who is probably as iconic as Astro Boy and Pikachu.

Back in the day, I loved to watch some anime. A local TV station had Robotech and Star Blazers on after school and you could bet I was watching. If you are still a big fan of anime content and happen to own a PS Vita, you will love this.

Etsy seller LisaLou must keep a magical cat in her shop Rarity’s Boutique. Drop by and you’ll see ordinary clothing turned into Sailor Moon hoodies. To prevent Sailor Lawyer from attacking, LisaLou had to rename her products, but they’re clearly modeled after the five original guardians.

Medicom has released a 400% (11″ tall) Bearbrick of the 60 meter-tall Colossal Titan, one of the giants terrorizing the poor citizens in the world of Shingeki no Kyojin, aka Attack on Titan. I’m not sure if there’s a 1% bearbrick inside.

Hey, Gundam fan. Yes, you – I’m talking to you. It seems like you’re not alone in your desire to own and have everything that screams Gundam, because the folks over at Tokyo’s Pacific Le Daiba probably knew that there were more fans like you in the world.

One of the coolest games I have played in a long time is the new Mass Effect 3. The game launched just last week, and of course is selling very well. There are already more than just video games in the franchise, with at least one very interesting novel to go along with Mass Effect that I know of.
