    Anyone else notice the Pizza Hut ads and product placement?  I swear I've watched a version without them but in most versions of the anime that I watch (at least in the dubs, I haven't watched subbed) there seems to be Pizza Hut everywhere.  I don't mind really, just seems a little odd.

    You have remember that anime is mainstream in Japan. Like Budweiser advertisements in the Super Bowl, advertisers pay big money for product placement in anime.

    Pizza Hut is also vying for the anime demographics against Domino's who has contracted with Miku.

    Yeah, I guess that's true.  I never really thought about it though.  I know anime is mainstream in Japan and that it is used for advertisements but, for some reason, it never occurred to me that advertising in the actual anime series was such a thing.  I guess it makes sense though.  Either way, this is an awesome anime.

    Also, nice AMV lol.

    Yeah, I noticed a lot of product placement in the first series!! There was a Pizza Hut pizza box in every episode after episode 3!! I also noticed a few others. Can't remember them off the top of my head!
