BanG Dream! Merch Roundup

BanG Dream! (バンドリ!) is a multimedia project by Bushiroad, the developers behind Love Live! School Idol Project. The franchise follows the activities of six different all-female bands, encompassing a wide range of musical genres. Poppin’ Party was the first band introduced in 2015, with Afterglow, Pastel Palettes, Roselia, and Happy Hello World joining the Bandori world with the release of the BanG Dream! Girls Band Party! mobile game in 2017. In 2018, Raise a Suilen officially joined the BanG Dream! Franchise, after being formed as a backup band for the series’ live events under the name The Third.

What sets BanG Dream! apart from other similar 2D idol projects is that some of the character’s voice actresses perform as a real band at live shows, with these members playing the same instrument as their fictional counterparts.

BanG Dream! will be celebrating five years of musical fun in 2020, so to mark the occasion, we’ve rounded up the latest and greatest of Bandori merch. Rock on!
