What Jérémy remembers from the stand
The traditional red Hannya was there. Jérémy no longer has a complete inventory of that edition, so this report does not present the whole catalogue as if every model had been documented on the stand. He often brings prototypes from his workshop experiments, but does not confirm an exclusive series made for this edition.
The pieces follow the usual workshop process in Brittany: 3D printing in PETG, sanding, painting and finishing by hand. Seeing several families together helps explain their differences, but the material alone does not establish measured performance or suitability for every use.

The traditional red Hannya
Jérémy recalls the traditional red Hannya drawing the most attention. He does not remember one particular conversation that would sum up the weekend. His overall impression was that the mask and stand were well received. This is his recollection, not a sales ranking.
Interest at manga events
At manga-oriented events, Jérémy generally notices more interest in Oni half masks. Visitors often respond to immediately recognizable shapes; more traditional references may need further explanation. That observation describes his experience across stands, not a complete account of purchases at Geek Life or a cultural ranking of Japanese masks.
Seeing the pieces in person
A front-facing photograph does not show all the depth of horns, eye openings, teeth or paint reflections. In person, it is easier to compare the apparent size and inspect where a strap or hanging point sits. For costume use, check the individual model’s fit, vision, breathing and fastening, with pauses. Being displayed at an event does not guarantee comfort during prolonged wear.
