Bandai's Gashapon division in Japan is set to release an exciting new product line themed after the upcoming anime "Style of Hiroshi Nohara's LUNCH," which premieres in October. The "Style of Hiroshi Nohara's LUNCH Assort Collection" capsule toys will be available for a suggested retail price of 400 JPY per play, with an anticipated release in late October 2025.
"Style of Hiroshi Nohara's LUNCH" is an official spin-off manga from the "Crayon Shin-chan" universe, chronicling Hiroshi Nohara's daily quest for the perfect midday meal, all while navigating his limited pocket money and lunch break. Upon its initial release, the series garnered attention due to its loose connection to the original "Crayon Shin-chan" and its distinct art style. This led to humorous fan theories and discussions online, with netizens playfully dubbing it a story about "ordinary people who *think* they're Hiroshi Nohara" or "delusional individuals fantasizing about being Hiroshi Nohara." The recent announcement of its anime adaptation further reignited a wave of discussion and excitement among fans.
This "Style of Hiroshi Nohara's LUNCH Assort Collection" Gashapon is being released to commemorate the anime adaptation, offering three distinct prize tiers: A, B, and C. The coveted A Prize is a sculpted figure of Hiroshi, capturing his iconic expression from Chapter 3 of the manga, where he decides to indulge in something he wouldn't normally order. The figure's base is emblazoned with his memorable line, "What the heck! Nobody's watching anyway, so who cares!" This three-dimensional rendition of such a famously bizarre expression is truly hilarious and a must-have for fans!

The B Prize features four unique acrylic stands, while the C Prize offers five different designs of die-cut acrylic charms. Each item showcases scenes set to appear in the upcoming anime, building anticipation for the series' debut! With a total of 10 items across the A, B, and C prizes, the distribution rates are all equal. Fans of "Style of Hiroshi Nohara's LUNCH" should definitely try their luck when these capsule toys drop!
