Honestly I'm surprised that none of you knew this eariler. I've been occasionally stopping into hot topic ever since it was first announced in that they'd get naruto merchandise back in October of this year. Of course I wouldn't pay a frickin dime for it since I think that the designs are complete crap. I'm honestly quite happy with the deathgod t-shirt that my brother made for me. Now that's frickin awesome. Although my favorite piece of clothing has to be the knock off orange jumpsuit sweater. I honestly can't imagine anyone being caught dead wearing it as well as a shirt with sakura on it. If the corporate conglomorates of hottopic want to impress me then lets see some itachi t-shirts or better yet lets see some atkaski cloaks.

The illusion of hot topic is that it sells everything considered to be counter culture so it's anime section is part of the counter culture image of hot topic. Honestly though 20 bucks goes to the person who can photograph a poor smuck who gets caught wearing any of that crap in public.

Me and my friends stopped by Hot Topic once as well. They had a bunch of Naruto stuff but thats not what surprised me...They had Vash's coat there! It was pretty big and it was expensive as well. One of my friends actually bought it the next day! When I get back to college, I'll ask him if I can get a picture of it to show you guys.

Basically what I'm saying is that if Vash's coat was there, then Akatsuki cloaks shouldn't be too far off. i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif

...hahahahaha

yes, what degrading lengths people will go to in the great quest for merchandising.

Hot Topic has always carried more anime merchandise than most clothing stores (that ive noticed) but they sure did one fucking pathetic job of picking the models .

or perhaps Terra just picked the ugliest to make the point stronger?

i, for one, wont buy the merchandise for almost any show that i really like WITH the exception of the DVDs and soundtracks. i like to think that anime creators (and all entertainers in general) should focus more on developing high quality shows, rather than focus on making shows that can sell lots and lots of merchandise.

Anyone who has watched Gundam Seed Destiny can vouch for the negative effect that marketing oriented development can have on a show. Focus on the storyline, the characters, the animation, the SFX, the music. Dont try to sell me some shit i dont need.
And thats why i dont buy merchandise for shows i really like. its like giving them a dose of much needed medicine.

Emo kids... Naruto... Processor Overload ... Processor Overload.... Reactor critical! All hands, abandon ship, this is not a drill. Insert meltdown of my head.

Not only are they degrading anime by trying to pitch stuff that im sure is cheaply made by some poor 5 year old in communist North Korea thats going to be destroyed the second time you wash it. (Made in USA my ass. Nothing ta those overpriced low quality trendy stores is ever made on this side of the world)but they pick weirdo little emo kids that are probably Unics anyway to represent it.. *sigh* little homo emo kids dont look good in orange, Hell id rather see Christopher walken in that jacket. (Thats just my opinion of the emo kid, at no point am I testifing that in fact all Emo trend followers are homosexual or lacking proper gentailia. Comments were for dramatic effect). *pant* * gasp*

They are saved for now, if they start selling Death God kiminos at hot topic and I have to hear all of the wannabe suicidal goth kids who think because they paint their nails black and dress in 200 pounds of leather with a black kimino above that (I know its not actually a kimono, but you get where im going with this right?) they are somehow enlightened sit there and defile my bleach, I will lose it right there. (heres a thought, get a job, im sick of paying taxes so you can live in your dark basement trying to come up with reasons on how the world and religion are a big conspiracy.) (I would say no offense, but I would have to mean it right?)
