Released Wednesday, 5/27

「Perfume ZO/Z5 Anniversary “Nebula Romance” −Complete Edition−」

The store-specific pre-order bonus has been decided: clear files 🪐

For the video releases coming out the same day,

ETA: @sunniedesi has since clarified that this image is from a clear POSTER, not a clear file. So I was totally barking up the wrong tree in the post below, but I'll leave the explanation anyway.

I'm betting most people following this blog already know this, but just in case anyone isn't yet familiar with the phenomenon of "Clear Files"... these are a very common form of pop culture merchandise in Japan. These are folders typically made of semi-translucent plastic, and you can often find them adorned with all sorts of marketable characters.

I bring this up because there's a particular Mirai Nikki "Clear File" that contains a piece of anime artwork I've never seen elsewhere. And the only photos I found of this Clear File online are in incredibly poor quality.

LOW-QUALITY FUZZINESS INCOMING!

That's it right there. This isn't the only Clear File based on Future Diary that was made, mind you... but it's the only one I know of that contains artwork I've not seen elsewhere. I've never seen this one for sale in the wild, but I wouldn't be surprised if someone else in the fandom has.

So if anybody out there has come across this or (hopefully) already owns one... a better photo or a scan of the thing would be GREATLY appreciated. :)
