After the broadcast of its much anticipated first episode in Japan last night, the official Twitter for the TV anime adaptation of Kotoyama's dagashi (cheap sweets)-themed manga Dagashi Kashi, posted a comment that suggested a possible release of a Nendoroid figure of the main heroine Hotaru Shidare with images from its trailer featuring the Nendoroid-ish characters.

"Some of you may have noticed, the illustrations used in the trailer for the next episode are 'Nendoroid'! It means...? Hotaru-san will be!?"

Then in the afternoon today, Good smile Company's Kohotan confirms the release on Twitter.

It is also announced that the first DVD/Volume containing the first two episode is set for a release on March

16, then the following five volumes will be released monthly till August. The manga author Kotoyama provides

newly-drawn illustration sleeves for their first press limited editions.
