Workman anime merchandise collaborations

Overview

Japanese retailer Workman has announced a series of limited-edition merchandise collaborations with popular anime franchises for the late 2026 season.

Initial announcements included a collection based on ‘JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Diamond is Unbreakable’ launching in early September, featuring apparel and accessories. Additionally, a collaboration with ‘The Apothecary Diaries’ was scheduled for late November, offering items such as T-shirts, a ‘medicine notebook case’, and pouches.

Subsequent updates expanded the scope of these collaborations to include ‘My Hero Academia’ starting in October, featuring 10th-anniversary T-shirts. The seasonal lineup will conclude in December with ‘Jujutsu Kaisen’ winter gear, specifically high-performance sweatshirts. The initiative seeks to merge Workman’s functional workwear expertise with anime aesthetics.

Further details regarding the ‘Jujutsu Kaisen’ collection, which is scheduled for release in December 2026, specify that the lineup will include four varieties of sweatshirts featuring characters Yuji Itadori, Choso, and Naoya, alongside an icon-based design. The collection will also feature coin cases. This collaboration leverages the global popularity of the series, which has seen its manga surpass 150 million copies in circulation.
