The Shibuya Marui department store in Tokyo announced today that it will hold a special time-limited event for the birthday of Ram and Rem, the twin sister maid girls in Tappei Nagatsuki's popular light novel series Re:ZERO -Starting Life in Another World-, titled "Re:Life of Ram & Rem's Birthday from Zero 2018" from January 20 to February 5, 2018.

As you can remember, the store hold a birthday event for the series in the same period of one year ago.

But it was just for Rem. Her sister Ram, who has the same birthday with her was totally ignored at the

event. So this is a righteous decision for the store to celebrate both girls' birthday together this time.

During the event period, Tappei Nagatsuki's newly written short novel book will be given for purchases

of 3,000 yen or more at the store. The first week (January 22-26) purchasers will also receive a two-paper

coaster set, those in the second week (January 27-February 5) will get a mini shopper. In addition, "a

something special" is expected to happen at the store on their birthday, February 2.
