Japan's breakout music sensation, Ado, has teamed up with adidas as a creative partner for the "adidas Japan National Football Team 2026 Kit" this year! Not only did she drop the official anthem "Kira" for the national squad, but she also launched a special edition jersey: the "Japan National Football Team 2026 Home Fan Jersey Ado Edition."
Now, at Shibuya's MIYASHITA PARK, fans are buzzing! Beyond the massive "Kira" promotional ad that's been up for a while, Japanese netizens recently spotted a brand-new Ado statue, decked out in the Japan National Football Team kit. Naturally, fans are already planning their pilgrimages!
This isn't the first time Ado has taken over MIYASHITA PARK. Back in April, the adidas store's glass facade was plastered with a huge Ado ad, also promoting "Kira," drawing plenty of fans to check it out.
But hold up! This morning (June 11), Japanese netizens woke up to an even bigger surprise: a brand-new Ado statue has popped up near the entrance of MIYASHITA PARK! She's rocking the Japan National Team jersey, adidas track pants, and casually leaning against Trinoda, this year's official World Cup football. Talk about serious swagger!
And yes, there's also a massive ad wall to feast your eyes on.
This life-sized Ado statue is a pretty rare sight, so it's no shocker that photos immediately went viral, with fans clamoring to see it in person.
adidas has confirmed that this epic, life-sized Ado statue will be on display until June 28th. You know fans won't want to miss out on this one!
