The Elusive Samurai Reveals New and Exclusive “Four Seasons” Merch Collection
A new pop-up shop for the TV anime The Elusive Samurai has been announced, bringing an exclusive range of newly designed merchandise to Marui stores this summer.
Fans can look forward to a collection of original goods featuring brand-new illustrations of Hojo Tokiyuki dressed in outfits inspired by the four seasons, alongside adorable mini character artwork created especially for the event.
The Elusive Samurai is based on the manga by Yusei Matsui and follows the story of Hojo Tokiyuki, a young heir who survives the fall of the Kamakura shogunate and sets out to reclaim his family’s legacy using his remarkable talent for evasion rather than direct combat.
Fans can shop from a wide range of newly created merchandise including lifestyle items and accessories.
The merchandise lineup includes four acrylic stands featuring the newly illustrated seasonal artwork, each priced at ¥1,870 (approx. $13 USD/ £10 GBP).
Trading washi-style can badges will be available in 12 different designs for ¥660 each (approx. $5 USD/ £4 GBP), while a complete set of 12 will cost ¥7,920 (approx. $54 USD/ £41 GBP).
Trading lucky charm-style charms will also feature 12 designs and will retail for ¥990 each (approx. $7 USD/ £5 GBP), with a full 12-piece set available for ¥11,880 (approx. $81 USD/ £61 GBP).
Collectors can purchase a Polaroid Shot Collection featuring 12 different designs for ¥500 each (approx. $3 USD/ £3 GBP), while a complete set of 12 will be priced at ¥6,006 (approx. $41 USD/ £31 GBP).
Trading acrylic stands will be available in eight different designs for ¥880 each (approx. $6 USD/ £5 GBP), with an eight-piece set costing ¥7,040 (approx. $48 USD/ £36 GBP).
A chirimen-style lunch drawstring bag decorated with cute mini character illustrations will also be available for ¥2,200 (approx. $15 USD/ £11 GBP).
Fans can also pick up one of four mini hanging scrolls for ¥3,300 (approx. $22 USD/ £17 GBP) each.
The collection will also include four bath towels, each priced at ¥5,500 (approx. $38 USD/ £28 GBP).
All trading items are sold in blind packaging, so individual designs cannot be selected when purchasing single packs.
Visitors who spend ¥3,000 or more (approx. $20 USD/ £15 GBP) in a single transaction at participating shops inside the event venue will receive one entry into a special raffle.
Customers who pay using an Epos Card, or present an Epos Card before paying in cash, will receive one additional raffle entry.
