My holy grail, the one thing I absolutely need but can never find a listing for…. The Akagi Zawazawa Mascot 13 ver. 「アカギ ざわざわマスコット 13歳ver.」
With slightly off center eyes and a mouth that only looks upturned from certain angles, he has a unique expression of distant contempt and smugness, and a little pink bag that says ‘charm’ on it. A label on the box says it contains a piece of old Akagis tombstone (which in the allstars comic, 13 Akagi is so fond of destroying) but I haven’t seen any pictures of it. Sometimes the bag looks like it has something in it, sometimes it doesn’t, it seems to be sewn shut.
He’s apparently based on a 19 akagi plush of similar size and structure that was sold the year before at comiket.
It was bundled with a special edition of volume 26 on July 17th 2012, and said to be “made to order”, which may account for its rarity. The preorder period only lasting from January 2012 to April 2nd that year at eligible bookstores and sites such as amazon. The price for preorder was 1,980 Yen. One amazon review boasted the plush’s power, claiming they immediately won a gamble after bringing him along. 5 people found the review helpful.
