Tanjiro and Giyu take on Akaza in new Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle prize lottery
Bandai Spirits has released a new “Ichiban Kuji” prize lottery based on the hit anime Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba.
The new collection, titled “Ichiban Kuji Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba ~Upper Three~,” launched on the 18th of July, 2025, which was the same date as the premiere of the first film in the Infinity Castle Arc trilogy.
“Ichiban Kuji” is a popular “no-lose” prize lottery system where every ticket purchased at a participating retailer wins an item from a tiered lineup of exclusive merchandise.
This new lottery focuses on the confrontation between Akaza, the Upper Rank Three demon, and Demon Slayer’s Giyu Tomioka and Tanjiro Kamado.
The top prizes are a series of large, detailed figures from Bandai Spirits’ high-quality “MASTERLISE” brand.
The full prize lineup for the lottery is as follows:
- Prize A: Tanjiro Kamado MASTERLISE Figure
This figure depicts Tanjiro wielding his Nichirin sword, now equipped with the inherited handguard of the late Flame Hashira, Kyojuro Rengoku.
- Prize B: Giyu Tomioka MASTERLISE Figure
This figure captures the Water Hashira, Giyu Tomioka, in a calm but ready stance for battle.
- Prize C: Akaza MASTERLISE Figure
A large figure of the Upper Rank Three demon, Akaza, showcasing his powerful physique.
- Prize D: Bath Towel
A 100cm bath towel with a design featuring the Insect Hashira, Shinobu Kocho.
- Prize E: “Chokonokko” Figures
A collection of five small, sitting “Chokonokko” figures, which notably includes the first-ever appearance of the Upper Rank Two demon, Doma, in this figure line.

- Last One Prize: Akaza MASTERLISE Last One ver.
A special variant version of the Prize C Akaza figure, which is awarded to the person who purchases the very last ticket from a set.
A “Double Chance Campaign” also gives ticket holders a second opportunity to win an even grander prize through an online lottery.
The prize for this campaign is a set containing all three of the top-tier MASTERLISE figures: Tanjiro, Giyu, and Akaza.
The lottery is now available at participating convenience stores, hobby shops, Animate, and official Ichiban Kuji shops across Japan, with the price for one ticket being ¥790.
