Please for the love of what's good and holy, don't let fidget spinners become a thing in Japan.

I hope it does!

| Quote: | | One such example of a toy not meant for children is Bandai's Formania EX V Gundam, which is based off a mobile suit that first featured in the 1988 film Char's Counterattack. |
That should read "Formania EX ν Gundam" (it's a "Nu" not a "V"). The "V Gundam" is a different mobile suit, from the later series Victory Gundam.

Worth mentioning that protagonist Lip does perform as an idol in the show itself when transformed into a humalu as Hanasaki Yumiri, so it's not just a random "let's add idols for generation crossover appeal" idea.
