It’s time to pick a side and stand up for what you believe in!
There is plenty of positive buzz and anticipation for Marvel’s newest entry in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Captain America: Civil War will set superhero friends against each other as they have a battle of ideals with their fists.
Japan is lucky this time around as excited fans will get to see the movie eight days before most of the world, and certain talented manga artists are happy to celebrate by putting their own characters in a head to head match up. Promotional postcards from Fairy Tail, Ace of Diamond and Seven Deadly Sins depict their characters mirroring the movie poster for Captain America: Civil War.

These awesome pieces of art were available in the April 13 issue of Weekly Shonen Magazine. Those who weren’t able to pick up a copy will have a chance to collect the postcards as gifts when they go see the movie in theaters. They will be handed out randomly, so you’ll have to see the movie multiple times in order to collect all three. But if early word of mouth is to be believed, you’ll be happy to go see it again and again.
