The second season of Sengoku Basara is broadcasting on July 11. In addition to the TV, collaboration with Miyagi prefecture will come again. The three festivals are the core of the collaboration. Sendai Tanabata Festival ( August), Masamune Kou Festival(September), and Oni Kojuro Festival(October) are scheduled for tie up with Basara 2. Exclusive illustrations of Basara 2 for each festival will be used as notification and for goods. It is good opportunity to visit Miyagi for people have not ever been to the prefecture. I feel using Anime for regional development is attracted attention in recent years in Japan. Perhaps relationships between Anime pieces and their related regions have potential economic elements.
