The anime series ‘My Hero Academia’ has initiated several promotional collaborations in Japan. In mid-September 2026, the series launched a second collaboration with the karaoke chain Manekineko, featuring character-themed non-alcoholic beverages and exclusive merchandise such as acrylic stands and tin badges.

Following this, as part of the ‘My Hero Academia The Animation 10th Anniversary’ project, a series of themed pop-up cafes titled ‘My Hero Academia Cafe WE ARE HERO HOLICS’ is scheduled to open in late 2026. These cafes, located in cities including Tokyo, Nagoya, Osaka, and Sapporo, will offer menus inspired by character abilities and costumes, alongside various promotional items like hologram stickers and hero cards.
