Love and Deepspace 2.5th Anniversary Bloomit Purikura Collab Starts July 20

Fryu has announced a limited-time collaboration between its purikura machine Bloomit and INFOLD's mobile game Love and Deepspace, celebrating the game's 2.5th anniversary. The event runs from July 20 to August 31, 2026, at approximately 500 Bloomit machines nationwide. Players can take two-shot style photos with five male leads: Seiya, Rei, Homura, Shin, and Mahiru. Each character has a dedicated photo frame, sticker design, and newly recorded guide voice. The photo session includes in-game music: "Pop Candy" plays during shooting and "Spring to Flowers" during the doodle phase. Printed stickers mimic the characters' own SNS feeds, complete with a personal message. A limited run of 65 machines will feature special character wrapping in five designs. Downloading photo data requires a Pictlink premium membership (550 yen per month). The collaboration mode may not be available at all stores. Love and Deepspace has surpassed 80 million users worldwide since its 2024 Japanese release.

The guide voices for each of the five male leads were newly recorded specifically for this collaboration, adding a layer of immersion as players take photos. The sticker designs are styled to look like the characters' own social media posts, with a handwritten comment printed alongside the photo. Fryu is also deploying 65 limited-edition Bloomit machines with full-character wrapping, one design per lead, at select stores to be announced via the official Instagram account.

Love and Deepspace itself features an in-game photo mode that lets players pose both the protagonist and the male leads, a feature that the physical collab mirrors. The game blends romance simulation with stylish action combat using dual pistols and swords, and a serious narrative about hidden darkness and the protagonist's own mysteries. The collaboration is the first time the game has partnered with a physical purikura chain, though the mode may not be installed on every Bloomit unit. Players who want to save their digital photos must subscribe to Pictlink Premium, a separate service.
