A Certain Dark Item Reveals New Cyberpunk Character Artwork for Merchandise Fair

New character illustrations have been revealed for an upcoming merchandise fair celebrating the anime A Certain Dark Item.

Japanese merchandise company Edith announced the collaboration, which will take place at select Animega × Sofmap stores in Japan.

The newly commissioned artwork depicts the Item cast in cyberpunk-inspired outfits. The illustrations will be used on merchandise that also offers special purchase bonuses.

Item, consisting of leader Shizuri Mugino, Takitsubo, Frenda, and Saiai Kinuhata, has become a fan-favorite group thanks to their recurring presence across Index and Railgun.

The spinoff, set roughly a year before the events of A Certain Magical Index, explores their early days and shows how the team operates before Shiage Hamazura joins them during the mainline series.

The A Certain Dark Item light novel currently has seven volumes, while the manga has two volumes released.

The newest light novel entry in the mainline series, A Certain Magical Index Genesis Testament volume 16, is now available in Japan.

Meanwhile, A Certain Scientific Mental Out continues its serialization. A fourth season of Railgun is also in the works.
