Japanese electronics company Denon began accepting preorders on Friday for headphones inspired by the Puella Magi Madoka Magica anime films. The wireless, noise-cancelling headphones include Bluetooth capabilities.
These special-edition AH-GC20 headphones feature original guidance recordings from the anime's main characters. The recordings from Kyubey, Madoka, Homura, Sayaka, Kyōko, and Mami include phrases like, "Hello! What kind of song do you want to listen to?" and "Maybe I'll listen, too."
Character designer and chief animation director Junichirō Taniguchi created special illustrations featured on the box.
Denon is running a present campaign during the preorder period. People who preorder the headphones from September 23 to December 14 have a chance to win one of 18 sets of three colored paper boards signed by the voice actresses for Kyubey and the five magical girls. People must apply for a chance to win from September 24 to December 22.
Hatsune Miku, Uta no Prince Sama, Persona 4, and Hello Kitty have also inspired their own headphones.
