Theaters Handing Out A5 Illustration Cards 

Toei currently expects One Piece Film: Gold to cross 6 billion yen soon. It won’t be a difficult task since the series already has the largest fan base in Anime and majority of them are yet to watch it. Also, theaters which are currently playing One Piece Film: Gold are handing over A5 illustration cards to the audience. The illustration cards are in fact singed by all the 15 members of One Piece Film: Gold’s cast, including Hikari Mitsushima, Gaku Hamada, Comedian Kendo Kobayashi, Nadaru and Korokke.
