Kura Sushi x Haikyuu!! Collaboration Kicks Off in Japan with Themed Menu and Exclusive Merch!

Japanese conveyor belt sushi chain "Kura Sushi" (くら寿司), which has been rapidly expanding in Taiwan recently, is famous for its unique system where diners can exchange empty plates for a chance to win gachapon prizes – a major draw for many customers.

Now, Kura Sushi has announced an exciting collaboration with the popular anime series "Haikyuu!!" This isn't just about character-themed dishes; get ready for a ton of original, fan-frenzy-inducing merchandise! The collaboration is set to launch across all Kura Sushi locations in Japan, starting March 6th for a limited time.

This collaboration features four special menu items inspired by the anime's four high schools (prices may vary by store). Each dish comes with an exclusive collaboration card, featuring character art on the front and each school's banner design on the back. These items will be available from March 6th to April 2nd.

▼ Karasuno High's Orange Cola (530 JPY)

Inspired by Hinata, this drink combines orange jelly and orange sherbet with additive-free cola. It's a sweet, tangy, and refreshing bubbly treat with eye-catching color contrast.

▼ Nekoma High's Caramel Apple Parfait (430 JPY)

A nod to Kozume's favorite apple pie, this parfait features stewed apples, dark cocoa crisps for a pie crust texture, caramel sauce, vanilla ice cream, and custard, creating layers of delightful sweetness.

▼ Fukurodani Academy High's Double Beef Ribs! Wasabi Mayo Sushi (350 JPY)

This dish brings together Bokuto's love for yakiniku and Akaashi's preference for wasabi-dressed greens. Beef ribs are paired with wasabi mayonnaise and finished with a sprinkle of coarse black pepper for a multi-layered flavor experience.

▼ Inarizaki High's Tuna Takuan Hand Roll (400 JPY)

Combining Miya Atsumu's favorite tuna and Miya Osamu's love for onigiri, this hand roll features negitoro (minced fatty tuna) topped with chu-toro (medium fatty tuna) and takuan (pickled daikon radish), offering a refreshing yet substantial bite.

And of course, Kura Sushi's signature "Bikkura Pon!" gachapon game is back! The more sushi you eat, the more chances you have to win! Insert five plates, and if you win, you'll snag exclusive merchandise. This gachapon event runs from March 6th to March 31st, while supplies last.

Chibi Character Keychains (12 designs)

Anime Famous Scene Masking Tapes (4 designs)

Characters in Uniform Badges (8 designs)

Plus, spend 2500 JPY or more in a single transaction and get exclusive freebies like clear files or sushi plates! This giveaway is split into two waves:

Kura Sushi is also hosting a special photo event. Snap a picture of the "Haikyuu!!" collaboration promotional POP playing on the in-store conveyor belt, upload it to social media, and you could be one of 10 lucky winners to receive a "Complete Collaboration Merch Set."

Just a heads-up: prices may vary by store, and some items are limited edition, so once they're gone, they're gone! If you're a fan planning a trip to Japan, you'll want to move fast to catch this!
