Interesting. I knew about pachinko parlors and how they work (and learned a lot about the Pokémon Game Corners in the process), but that leaves me with another question: Where are these slot machines placed then?

and then I see Monster Musume no Iru Nichijō's booth, with Mīa's portrait having her breasts popping out from the wall!


I'm a little surprised they didn't have the viewing pane cut into one of the girls' boobs so it looked like the viewer was motor-boating.

Also thank you for this...

All this stuff looks fun. All the articles they covered on ANN, you can see booths for new creations. Morning Musume booth with boobs you can touch. I'm dying here. How about a tail you can pretend to wrap yourself up in. Lots of Parasyte toys, and all kinds of good stuff. Man I would love to go to one of these events.
