Novala Takemoto News (merchandise related)
As many of you have heard already, Novala was arrested recently for possession of a 'recreational drug'. The laws in Japan are very stiff when it comes to illegal drug possession. As a result, Baby The Stars Shine Bright has pulled ALL Novala merchandise from their website and perhaps their store shelves too. I'm very sure other companies will follow suit such as Sanrio.
If your local Sanrio shop imports Japanese items such as Novala Hello Kitty trinkets, I would go get them before they run out because they won't be restocking more. This also applies for any other items he designed and or produced, including his novels.
This is very sad and disappointing news for the EGL community. We may not see much more of Novala in the future until his reputation has been mended socially.
