These cool chopstick forms are feminine and just a little magical, inspired by three of Sailor Moon's magical wands.
This year has seen a ton of new Sailor Moon-themed products, since it is the 20th anniversary of the classic anime, as well as the year the new Sailor Moon 2013 cartoon will be released by Toei Animation in December.
To amp up for this event, Bandai created these adorable Sailor Moon-inspired chopsticks, made entirely in pink to look just like the Moon Stick, Moon Rod and Pink Moon Stick. The cool chopsticks are available to pre-order from Bandai and although they would make awesome Christmas gifts for fans of the Sailor Moon franchise, unfortunately the chopstick sets will not be available until March of 2014.
