Kura Sushi strengthens prize management ahead of Nijisanji collaboration

Kura Sushi has announced the strengthening of its prize management and operational systems in preparation for a collaboration campaign with the VTuber group Nijisanji, scheduled to begin on October 30. The company stated on its official X account that it is working with flea market service operators to deter unauthorized reselling of promotional items.

This move follows a September incident involving a collaboration with the character Chiikawa, where employee misconduct led to the cancellation of related projects. In that instance, reports of limited edition figures being mass-listed on resale apps prompted Kura Sushi to review its entire logistics and distribution process.

The upcoming Nijisanji campaign features six VTubers and includes themed menu items such as shrimp curry tartar and peach mango frappés. Customers can also participate in the ‘Bikkura Pon!’ game to win limited edition merchandise, including charms and badges.
