Japanese brand Mayla Classic, known for its popular collaborations with franchises like Cardcaptor Sakura, Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba, and Neon Genesis Evangelion, consistently earns rave reviews for its apparel, footwear, and accessories.
Get ready, Mononoke fans! Mayla Classic just dropped a bombshell, announcing a stunning collaboration with "Mononoke The Movie: Chapter 3 - Snake God" – the grand finale hitting theaters today! They're unleashing lavish hair accessories inspired by the enigmatic Medicine Seller and Shingi. These beauties are priced at 14,300 JPY and are available for pre-order right now on their official website.
For those unfamiliar, the "Mononoke" TV anime first aired in July 2007. The series follows the enigmatic Medicine Seller, a wanderer who travels from place to place, wielding the Exorcism Sword to slay "mononoke" (supernatural spirits). (Takahiro Sakurai originally voiced the character, but Hiroshi Kamiya took over for the movie due to a personal scandal.)
Wherever the Medicine Seller and his demon-slaying blade appear, "mononoke" are sure to follow. The "Mononoke The Movie" trilogy – featuring "Karakasa," "Bakeneko," and the latest, "Snake God" – brilliantly carries on the series' signature "washi paper texture" art style and its breathtaking, scroll-painting-esque world. These films further amplify the Medicine Seller's enigmatic allure and the franchise's rich, intricate visual storytelling.
This time around, Mayla Classic drew its creative energy from none other than the main protagonist of "Mononoke The Movie: Chapter 3 - Snake God," the Medicine Seller himself, and his legendary "Exorcism Sword" – specifically, its powerful combat transformation, "Shingi." These two iconic forms are the dazzling inspiration behind this new line of hair accessories.
The designs are a masterclass in detail, drawing heavily from their signature attire and weapon elements. Each piece is meticulously crafted to highlight their distinct characteristics, blending the traditional hairpin with additional charms for a truly opulent effect. Wear them as standalone hairpins for a subtle touch, or combine them with the charms to create an elegant, show-stopping hair accessory.

These aren't just ordinary hairpins! You can rock them solo for a chic look, or combine them with the included charms to craft an elegant, show-stopping hair accessory. Just slide one into your locks – short or long – and instantly elevate your style, perfectly capturing the sophisticated vibe of these iconic characters.
Bonus: They even double as stylish charms!
And because presentation is everything, each purchase comes nestled in exclusive packaging, cleverly designed to mimic the Medicine Seller's iconic carrying case.
