posted on by Jennifer Sherman
Oedo Onsen Monogatari revealed the details of its collaboration with Yuri!!! on Ice on Wednesday. The hot springs theme park will offer an array of themed food, merchandise, and games at its Odaiba, Tokyo location.
The collaboration unveiled special illustrations of Yūri, Victor, Yuri, Otabek, and friends in yukata. The "mini character illustrations" for the campaign will also feature super-deformed versions of the main characters in yukata and in a hot spring.
Naturally, the collaboration's food menu will include katsudon (pork cutlet bowl), Yūri's favorite food. Victor's tempura matcha soba, shaved ice inspired by Yuri, the Plisetsky family's blini, a brulee crepe inspired by Phichit, and a variety of other character dishes will also be on the menu. Prices will range from 780 yen (about US$7) to 1,280 yen (US$11).
The event's attractions will include a stamp rally for 500 yen (US$). Participants will travel around the resort to complete a stamp notebook. The attraction will give participants one of two bath bags and one of two fans.
Visitors will be able to participate in a game to find Victor's dog Makkachin. When players find him, they will receive an onsen bracelet, charm, social media-style key holder, or tin mirror. Other collaboration attractions will offer similar prizes.
The wide variety of exclusive goods for the collaboration will include acrylic stand charms, scrunchies, masking tape, Makkachin soap tissues, shopping bags, Yuri's tiger T-shirt, and a Victor shampoo bottle. Merchandise prices will range from 500 yen (US$4) for a shopping bag to 8,400 yen (US$74) for a zabuton cushion.
The collaboration will run from July 7 to August 20.
Anime that Oedo Onsen Monogatari has collaborated with in the past include Cute High Earth Defense Club LOVE! LOVE!, Gintama, Cute High Earth Defense Club LOVE!, Naruto, and Tiger & Bunny.
