It gives me great pleasure to announce that the Kinokuniya x Mirai Suenaga collaboration has increased power levels - starting off initially in Malaysia, Mirai Suenaga has now become Kinokuniya's Privilege Card ^o^
For those who are not familiar, Kinokuniya is a Japanese book store located in various parts of the world who provide locals with a wide selection of original Japanese publications.
The Kinokuniya Privilege Card is the bookstore’s membership programme which entitles customers to get 10% off original retail price on books at Books Kinokuniya KLCC and BookWeb Malaysia online, as well as exclusive invites to all their promotions and in-store events.
The first 500 applicants of the Mirai-chan card will also get a specially designed Kinokuniya Moekana card for and a 20% discount on our Japanese learning products Moekana and Moekanji.
Membership fees for the Mirai-chan card are RM39 for one year, or RM75 for two years. These details are also up at the official Kinokuniya site.
And here is the freebie Kinokuniya Moekana card that you get ^^
The Mirai Suenaga Privilege Card comes in this envelope which includes a cutie illustration of Mirai-chan.
To get hold of yours, all you have to do is fill out this PDF on the Kinokuniya site - then either send it to Kinokuniya with a bank slip or cheque or bring it to the store in person.
If you have any questions about the card then just call them - address and number below.

And this is what the back of the envelop looks like which is made of thin card.
The first batch is printed in limited quantities so if you want this design then quickly get along to Kinokuniya!
If you already got the previous Privilege Card then you can change it for a Mirai Suenaga one for RM13.
If you want the Mirai Suenaga Privilege Card to roll out in a Kinokuniya in your region quicker then just call up your local Kinokuniya and request it!
Looks good with the rest of the Mirai goodies collection ^^
Kinokuniya Malaysia is located at Level 4 in Kuala Lumpur City Centre (KLCC).
Kinokuniya not only stocks original Japanese publications but also a load of English and local language books too. The Japanese books are generally more expensive than the original - the cost of shipping is usually added on top but the Mirai-chan Privilege Card will get you 10% off any purchase so it just makes sense to own one especially if you buy a load of stuff during the year.
As of time of writing, the window display is currently filled with Mirai-chan stuff ^o^
Kinokuniya currently have the Mirai Nendoroid, Moekana, Moekanji and they should have the card case soon - or already in stock.
Moekana and Moekanji should be on display at the counters - if not then just ask!
The Moekana that you see out on the shelves right now is the First Edition and will be the last of its kind as we are working on Moekana the Second Edition due for release early next year - or possibly in time for Comic Fiesta in Malaysia this December?
This is my man in charge of Kinokuniya ^o^
A quick look around the store - they also got a load of localised Japanese publications too.
No matter which Kinokuniya I visit, I always bump into readers which is great!
This photo is taken at the Kinokuniya store in LA. They got Mirai Nendoroid, Mirai Music, Deck Cases, Moekana and Moekanji. Most other Kinokuniya stores have a load of Mirai Suenaga merchandise - just call them up and ask before you visit - if they dont have it then put in a request.
