# Anime Herb Packets Arctic Warriors' Healthy Herb Remedy Packaging Takes Cues from Anime Cards By Laura McQuarrie | Published 2015-01-07 | Life-Stages Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/healthy-herb References: [packagingoftheworld](http://www.packagingoftheworld.com/2014/12/arctic-warriors.html) & [arcticwarriors.fi](http://www.arcticwarriors.fi/) Arctic Warriors' [healthy herb products](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spacegoods-gummies) consist of ancient remedies to help make it easy to get you through the winter months when sickness surrounds you. In order to make something as age-old as Lapland mythology and herbal remedies appealing to a young demographic, Arctic Warriors created packets that resemble Anime trading cards that are commonly traded between kids. The products are packaged as [gel and honey shots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shiseidos-new-drink-format) in [snap-open satchels](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/yoghurt-pouch) for no-mess consumption. To introduce the three different product types: Defense, Endurance and Energy, each of the packets features a warrior to embody the qualities of each healing herb mixture. The slim size of the packets are ideal for carrying around in a purse or backpack. Plus, unlike a pill, Arctic Warriors' gels are easy to get down and don't require any water to ingest. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.0/10 - Popularity: 47% | Activity: 36% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Gen Alpha - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Life-Stages](https://www.trendhunter.com/life-stages) > [Youth](https://www.trendhunter.com/youth) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Anime-inspired Packaging:** Opportunity for brands to attract younger demographics by incorporating anime aesthetics in packaging design. - **Healthy Herb Remedies:** Growing demand for natural and ancient remedies as consumers prioritize health and wellness. - **Convenient On-the-go Consumption:** Opportunity to develop innovative packaging formats that allow for mess-free consumption of health products on the go. ### Where This Applies - **Health and Wellness:** Brands in the health and wellness industry can explore incorporating anime-inspired packaging for their natural remedy products. - **Consumer Goods:** Companies in the consumer goods industry can develop convenient packaging solutions like snap-open satchels for mess-free consumption. - **Pharmaceutical:** Pharmaceutical companies can explore gel and honey shots packaging formats for their herbal remedies, catering to consumers' desire for easy and water-free consumption. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Superhero Anime Energy Drinks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sneak-energy.md) - [Anime-Themed Energy Formulas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/g-fuel-x-one-piece.md) - [Asian Superfood Gummies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/reprise-health.md) - [Design-Forward Supplement Packaging](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/supplement-packaging1.md) - [Reformed Yogurt Packagings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nomadic-greiner-packaging.md) - [Health-Conscious Iced Teas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hrbvor-1.md) - [Anime-Inspired Tea Products](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/studio-ghibli-tea.md) - [Takeout-Style Serum Sets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/skin-sips.md) - [Comic Strip Milk Bottles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/seki-milk.md)
