Popular Anime Haikyuu!! to Debut in Happy Kuji Lottery, Drawing Huge Fan Attention on Social Media

It has been announced that the popular anime "Haikyuu!!" will make its debut in the "Happy Kuji" lottery, drawing significant attention from fans on social media. The lottery is scheduled to launch on Friday, November 14, 2025, at 7-Eleven, Ito-Yokado, and Yume Town stores nationwide, with high anticipation for its luxurious lineup.

The main highlight of the upcoming "Happy Kuji Haikyuu!!" is a collection of dynamic figures that evoke the fierce battles of the "Spring High Miyagi Representative Finals" depicted in the series. The lineup includes a "Shoyo Hinata" figure for A-Prize, "Tobio Kageyama" for B-Prize, "Toru Oikawa" for C-Prize, and "Hajime Iwaizumi" for D-Prize. Furthermore, a "Wakatoshi Ushijima" figure will be available as the Last One Prize. On social media, fans have expressed their excitement with comments such as "I want them all!", "Happy Kuji is too wonderful!", and "They've brought to life Hinata, Kageyama, and Ushijima's play scenes!"

Beyond the figures, a wide variety of other prizes will also be available. Fans will be delighted by items like large acrylic panels, tumbler sets featuring designs from the series' popular "Shimada Mart" and "Gungun Milk," banner flat pouches, and postcards. Specific mentions of desired items like "I want the Shimada Mart and Gungun Milk tumblers" indicate that many fans are also aiming for the lower-tier prizes.

In addition to "Haikyuu!!", Happy Kuji has collaborated with a diverse range of popular content. Recently, the "Disney Wishing Stars" lottery and "Sanrio Characters Halloween" lottery also generated buzz, with the Sanrio lottery proving so popular that some stores sold out, underscoring its immense appeal. Lotteries for various genres, including Star Wars, Curious George, and ENHYPEN, are also available, and past Happy Kuji items are actively traded on flea market apps like Mercari.

Priced at 790 yen (tax included) per ticket, the "Happy Kuji Haikyuu!!" guarantees a prize with every draw, ensuring no loss for participants. Some anime fans have commented, "This is my first time hearing about Happy Kuji" and "Happy Kuji, really?", suggesting that this collaboration has introduced many to the lottery's existence. The diverse lineup of Happy Kuji continues to be worth watching.

The context

"Haikyuu!!" (ハイキュー!!) is a highly popular Japanese manga series, written and illustrated by Haruichi Furudate, which has also been adapted into a globally successful anime. The story follows the ambitious junior high student Shoyo Hinata, who, despite his small stature, dreams of becoming a top volleyball player after being inspired by a national championship match. The series is celebrated for its dynamic portrayal of volleyball matches, character development, and themes of teamwork and perseverance. The "Spring High Miyagi Representative Finals" refers to a significant arc within the story where teams compete for a spot in a national high school volleyball tournament.

"Happy Kuji" (Happyくじ, lit. "Happy Lottery") is a well-known Japanese lottery system where participants purchase tickets for a fixed price (in this case, 790 yen) and are guaranteed to win one of various prizes. These prizes often include high-quality figures, plush toys, stationery, and other exclusive merchandise from popular anime, manga, and other entertainment franchises. A unique feature is the "Last One Prize," which is awarded to the person who purchases the very last ticket remaining in a box, often making it a highly sought-after item.
