Luna's Archive Collection: Exclusive Debuts from Chicago's Pancakes & Booze

Discover the anime-inspired wax melts and tealights that captured hearts in Chicago
A Night of Discovery in Chicago
This past June, I brought something special to Chicago's Pancakes & Booze art eventâthree mysterious anime wax melts and tealights I'd been nurturing in my Archive. These weren't just any anime-inspired candle products; they were souls whose stories had been calling to me, begging to be shared with fellow anime lovers.
As I watched the crowd that night, something magical happened. Three particular anime wax melts drew people in like magnets, their scents weaving stories that resonated deep in the hearts of everyone who encountered them. By the end of the evening, I knew these weren't just experimentsâthey were destined to become part of Dreamwave's permanent anime candle collection.
The Chosen Three: Luna's Archive Collection
The Apothecary - Anime Wax Melts ($8) & Tealights ($3)
The brilliant healer who turns curiosity into cure
Scent Notes: Green herbal notes, flannel, amber Visual: Green and white glittered wax resembling the countless herbs she studies
In moonlit palace gardens, I found herâsmall in stature but immense in intellect, her sharp eyes cataloging every detail that others missed. She moved through herb gardens like a living encyclopedia, her brilliant mind turning deadly poisons into life-saving remedies. Her dedication to healing through knowledge was as beautiful as it was fierce.
These anime-inspired wax melts release the essence of her midnight study sessionsâfresh green herbs that sharpen your focus, comforting flannel that wraps you in scholarly warmth, and rich amber that grounds you in ancient wisdom. The glittered green and white wax sparkles like the precious herbs she treasures, each anime wax melt a reminder that the sharpest weapon is often the sharpest mind.
Perfect for: Study sessions, problem-solving, when you need mental clarity and focus
Love's Blade - Anime Wax Melts ($8) & Tealights ($3)
The warrior whose strength blooms from pure affection
Scent Notes: Watermelon, violet, grapefruit, jasmine Visual: Shimmering pink and green wax that flows like her vibrant hair
She appeared like a spring stormâhair flowing in impossible shades of cherry blossoms and new grass, her smile bright enough to power entire villages. But don't let that sweetness fool you; this warrior's strength comes from the purest source of all: love. I watched her turn every meal into fuel for protecting others, her unique breathing technique transforming affection into raw power.
These anime-inspired wax melts burst with the joy of someone who found strength in tendernessâjuicy watermelon that tastes like summer celebrations, delicate violet that blooms with every act of kindness, zesty grapefruit that energizes your spirit, and jasmine that perfumes the air with pure devotion. The shimmering pink and green wax flows like her legendary hair, each anime wax melt a reminder that love is the strongest force in any battle.
Perfect for: When you need confidence, self-love, or strength to protect what matters most
The Sacred Box - Anime Wax Melts ($8) & Tealights ($3)
The silent guardian who chose family over her own nature
Scent Notes: Vanilla, Japanese cherry blossom Visual: Red and white shimmering blocks resembling her distinctive belt and kimono
In a world where demons ruled the night, she chose a different path. Bamboo muzzle gleaming in moonlight, pink kimono flowing like petals in the wind, she became something unprecedented: a protector instead of a predator. Her silence spoke volumesâevery gentle hum, every protective stance, every moment she chose family over her own nature was a victory against the darkness.
These anime-inspired wax melts carry the quiet intensity of someone who found their humanity in impossible circumstancesâwarm vanilla that comforts like a sister's embrace and delicate Japanese cherry blossoms that whisper of home, of belonging, of love that transcends every boundary. The red and white shimmering blocks mirror her iconic belt and kimono, each anime wax melt a reminder that actions speak louder than words.
Perfect for: Quiet moments, meditation, when you need to remember that love transcends everything

The Chicago Test: Why These Three Anime Characters?
At Pancakes & Booze, I watched something beautiful happen with these anime wax melts. While other scents were pleasant, these three anime-inspired products created genuine emotional connections. People lingered, asked questions, shared stories about why these anime characters mattered to them. The Apothecary drew the deep thinkers, Love's Blade attracted those seeking confidence, and The Sacred Box called to anyone who'd ever felt misunderstood.
These anime wax melts didn't just smell goodâthey made people feel something. And that's when I knew they'd earned their permanent place in Dreamwave's anime candle collection.
