Japanese YouTuber HIKAKIN is expanding his food‑brand presence to the Kansai region in 2026. On 1 August 2026 he will open the "MisoKin" ramen shop on the fourth floor of Abeno Q's Mall in Osaka, featuring a double‑broth pork‑bone and chicken stock blended with a special miso sauce. The opening will be a reservation‑only event with a ceremony that invites 800 lottery‑selected guests, and HIKAKIN himself will attend.

A separate HIKAKIN‑affiliated noodle concept, "AkaKara Men," will launch a lunch‑only outlet on 1 July 2026 in the Heartland Esaka building near Esaka Station. The shop shares space with the existing izakaya Miyazaki Chibi Char and offers a private‑seating layout for solo diners and groups, serving its signature spicy ramen during daytime hours.

Both openings represent the first Kansai locations for the respective brands, extending their reach beyond Tokyo and complementing other flagship concepts being introduced at Abeno Q's Mall during the summer rollout.
