Honestly, I'm surprised no-one's made an edit of that song with Toki. It must not be as much of a meme as I thought.

Imagine how much more sad and lonely we would be if not for the hard work of lowtax. Here's $12.95 to his aid.
I think Kaban cosplay was more popular than Serval at C92

There's even more not part of that shot, then at least two Mirai. Laughing hard every time I see Zebra (slug) cosplay

Kaban cosplay is easy to do though, get a red shirt and shorts, one of those hats with a feather, and a backpack. Hell, none of those guys are doing it properly and it's still recognizable as Kaban.

A silly little mouse!
It's funny how this show took off when the thing it exists to promote went kaputt before it even released. It's like if the G1 Transformers cartoon was still successful but the Toys it existed to sell were discontinued before episode 1 aired. What are they supposed to do at this point? Try to relaunch the phone game? Make a new one? Pretend we have always been at war with EastAsia and it was always about the cartoon?

Take advantage of what's most popular at the time and double down on the anime+merchandise while they redesign the game into something worthwhile, if they find a demand for it.

I remember reading somewhere that the game wasn't meant to promote the anime. It was basically a multimedia thing and the mobagame just went out and died first before the anime even started airing.

This is correct, it was more of a multimedia project based of Mine Yoshizaki's setting and character designs. The anime and game actually both started production around the same time, it just took the anime a lot longer to come together and by then the game was already on its way out.

The alarm app is going to own

7:05: "P-please wake up!"

7:10: "Mya! So you're a Friend who's good at sleeping!"

7:15: A loving Cerulean explodes out your phone and eats you.

Some of these are animals I've never heard of. Others are ones I'd really like to see in the anime like Chimanzee or the maids (the gliders and ringtail possum) or the Satanic Leaf Gecko.

Huh. A lot of cosplay comes off as really awkward and unnatural, but this almost seems kind of... fashionable.
