My Hero Academia Villains Hit the Beach for New Summer-Inspired Merch Line

A special My Hero Academia Animal Beach Ball POP UP SHOP has been announced and will be held at the Tokyo Anime Center for a limited time.
The event will introduce a variety of brand-new merchandise featuring newly created artwork produced exclusively for the promotion.

My Hero Academia is the hit superhero anime and manga series created by Kohei Horikoshi, following Izuku Midoriya and his classmates as they train to become professional heroes in a world where superhuman abilities are commonplace.

Fans visiting the event will be able to shop from a selection of original goods based on the newly illustrated Animal Beach Ball visuals, including acrylic stands, stickers, badges, and other collectible items.

A number of products previously released during last year’s Animal Beach Ball pop-up event are also scheduled to return, giving visitors another opportunity to purchase selected items from the earlier collection.
Certain goods from the Animal mochocho merchandise line will likewise be available again as part of the event’s lineup.

Visitors will receive one random visual postcard from a selection of four designs for every ¥2,000 spent on merchandise (approx. $14 USD/ £10 GBP).

Customers who present an EPOS Card at the time of purchase will receive one additional random visual postcard for every ¥2,000 spent on merchandise (approx. $14 USD/ £10 GBP).
The My Hero Academia Animal Beach Ball POP UP SHOP will run from June 27 to July 12, 2026 at Tokyo Anime Center.
Opening hours are scheduled from 11:00 a.m. until 7:00 p.m. each day.
