Chiikawa Fluffy BIG Blanket to Hit Arcades from Mid-October

Chiikawa Fluffy BIG Blanket to Hit Arcades from Mid-October

Parade will release the "Chiikawa Fluffy BIG Blanket" as amusement prizes starting sequentially from mid-October 2026. The blanket measures about 100 by 140 centimeters and has an embossed surface finish with a fluffy texture. The lineup has two designs. One shows Chiikawa, Hachiware, and Usagi wearing aprons and making sweets. The other shows the same characters in Kintaro costumes, leaping with an axe. The blankets are scheduled to appear at amusement facilities nationwide, and participating stores will be listed on the Parade official website. The source work is Chiikawa, the manga by illustrator Nagano that began on X and runs in Kodansha's Morning line, with volume 8 available. The TV anime airs on Fuji TV's Mezamashi TV, and Chiikawa the Movie: The Secret of the Mermaid Island has been in theaters since July 24, 2026.

The blanket prize arrives in the same October window as other Chiikawa merchandise, but through a different channel. Arcade prizes are won rather than bought, so the blanket reaches players at amusement facilities while the ANA collaboration goods reach travelers through airport gift shops and in-flight sales.

Parade handles the prize line. The two blanket designs split by activity: the sweets-making illustration and the Kintaro costume illustration with the axe. Both use the same large format of roughly 100 by 140 centimeters and an embossed surface finish. Details on participating stores are posted on the Parade official website rather than announced all at once.

Chiikawa remains under active development. Nagano's manga runs in Kodansha's Morning line with eight collected volumes, the TV anime airs on Fuji TV's Mezamashi TV, and Chiikawa the Movie: The Secret of the Mermaid Island has been in theaters since July 24, 2026.
