We received the pre-production samples and they are looking AMAZING! We are still reviewing them to make sure that all the files and graphics are correct, but our initial review is very positive. These are samples from the factory and not the final product, so these do not have the gold foil on the box cover yet, but the final product will include that.
Samples of the new red and blue editions!
We are very happy with the way the magnetic flap and the new plastic window design have come out.
The new magnetic closure, plastic window insert, and the new blue ceramic tea set!
You can fit the player post cards in the top section if you'd like to display the art side instead of the tea cups.
Here is the original Japanese edition, for comparison, which does not include the new box and window design.
The original Japanese edition. This will NOT be the edition you are receiving.
We hope you like the updates we've made to the box. There are also many quality of life graphic updates on the cards themselves as well. Here's another example showing the original Japanese edition graphics (left) versus the new Japanime Games version graphics (right) on a few of the components.

We hope you like all the updates we've made! After our in depth review of the sample, we will make any updates necessary, and then move onward to mass production. Let us know what you think!
