I'm not the one, but there are a lot of kittyERs here.
The person in the following site must be the one, kittyer. The site is only in Japanese, but just click the map and you can find a lot of localised kitty.

I don't know where to travel around Japan, but some localised kitty items I know,
Tokyo: SUMO kitty
Kamakura: Daibutsu, Great statue of Buddha, Kitty, Kitty talisman at a famous Tsurugaoka Hachimangu shrine, Hydrangea Kitty
Odawara station at the root of Hakone: Kintaro Kitty lunch box

Millions of money for millions of localised Kitty products

Oh... Dear... Lord... I want a Pikachu stamp so badly. I used to watch Pokémon... but only because I wanted Pikachu. I am not a fan. Honest

Ok... so I downloaded a Gameboy emulator and beat Pokémon Red whilst also cheating and getting infinite Rare Candy and an unlimited number or Masterballs... therefore winning the game with all 150 pokemon, including Mew, the 3 legendary birds and Mewtwo... but that isn't the point. My point is... I got Pikachu.

The series of anime stamps starting from 2006 planned to end in the 7th edition. But thanks to the popularity, we are pleased to announce that the series will continue this year.

For J post, the popularity maybe mean people did not use the stamps. I don't know when they'd sell animated cash cow stamps, but it may be next year, for it will be the year of cow.

The 8th Anime Stamp: Mobile Police Patlabor
Issue date: August 22, 2008
特殊切手「機動警察パトレイバー」の発行 - 日本郵便

Wondering how many people think that the quality of the anime stamp improved much better than the previous ones.

It is because the stamp designer is a fan of the anime or because of the privatization.
A mystery...

I forgot saying that special postmarks are also available in some cases.
Example 1
Example 2

1. Usually available only at local central post offices (Sapporo, Sendai, Yokohama, Tokyo, Nagano, Nagoya, Osaka, Okayama, and Fukuoka)
2. Available only on the issue date.
3. A mail order for them is available.

Re: 50th anniversary, Weekly Shonen manga magazines
特殊切手「週刊少年漫画50周年I」の発行 - 日本郵便
At the commemoration of the 50th anniversary of "Weekly Shonen Sunday" and "Weekly Shonen Magazine", 2 different sets of special stamps for each will be sold on March 17 and May 22 this year.

Weekly Shonen Sunday Part I on March 17
Osomatsu-kun
Kamui the Ninja
Paman
Dame Oyaji
Pro Golfer Saru
Makoto-chan
Ganbare Genki
Urusei Yatsura
Cyborg 009
Touch

Weekly Shonen Magazine Part I on March 17
8 Man
Kyojin no Hoshi
GeGeGe no Kitaro
Tensai Bakabon
Ashita No Joe
Tiger Mask
Karate Baka Ichidai
Ai to Makoto
Tsurikiti Sanpei
Tonda Couple

The stamp design is not good. I suppose this might be because of a hot debate when to privatize the Post Office in this turbulent economic situation.

*10 more years to go for Weekly Shonen Jump fans.
**For shojo manga fans, you should file a lawsuit, "discrimination against girls (in the past)". For the time being, enjoy another cat letter set which is still available.

I thought popular manga such as Inuyasha would be listed.

If you are a manga fan of Rumiko Takahashi, be patient to wait for another 50 years.

60th Anniversary of Animal Protection Week
Sep. 18, 2009
This is not an anime/manga-related, but it is a nice design.
The stamps are only dog & cat related, but the original law itself protects your pets/companion animals (mammal/reptile/bird).
If you are an anaconda lover/activist, you should write a letter to the Post Office that all animals should be equal in the 70th anniversary.

The Pokemon stamp rallies at JR and 7/11 were held in the same way as in the 2008.
