Japanese watchmaker GARRACK arrived at Narita International Airport last week carrying three anime franchises on their dials — and the Demon Slayer collection just grew with three new Upper Moon villain watches that fans have been waiting for.

Kanazawa Gold Leaf and the Full Demon Slayer Lineup

GARRACK’s Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba collection is the most expansive of the three. Each watch features an automatic mechanical movement with a dial hand-finished in Kanazawa gold leaf (金沢箔) — a traditional craft from Ishikawa Prefecture, Japan, where artisans beat gold into sheets thinner than a micron before applying them by hand. No two dials come out identically, which is part of the appeal.

The full lineup spans 16 characters including every Hashira: Tanjiro, Nezuko, Zenitsu, Inosuke, Rengoku, Giyu, Shinobu, Uzui, Muichiro, Kanroji, Sanemi, Iguro and Himejima. Three new models — Douma, Akaza and Kaigaku — have just been added to the collection, bringing the Upper Moon villain trio into the fold for the first time. Two advance-sale models — Kanao Tsuyuri and Genya Shinazugawa — round out the lineup.

Prices run ¥74,800–¥77,000 (tax included) per piece, placing these firmly in collector and gifting territory.

Ultraman Heroes in Raden Mother-of-Pearl

GARRACK’s Ultraman series takes a different craft route: raden (螺鈿), the art of cutting and inlaying mother-of-pearl from shells to create iridescent patterns on watch dials. Artisans in Takaoka, Toyama — a region with over 400 years of metalwork tradition — hand-finish each piece. The effect is a shifting, luminescent surface that reads very differently from the gold leaf Demon Slayer variants.

Three Ultraman heroes are represented: Ultraman Tiga, Ultraman Zero and Ultraman Z (Zett). Prices are ¥77,000–¥79,200 (tax included).

Evangelion Raden Watches: Three Eva Units

The Evangelion collection, which GameTrader.SG covered when pre-orders opened in June, is also part of the Narita debut. Unit-01 (Shinji) is priced at ¥77,000; Unit-00 (Rei) and Unit-02 (Asuka) at ¥79,200 each. Like Ultraman, these use raden mother-of-pearl craftsmanship.

Narita Airport Terminal 3 — and Online for Singapore Fans

From 30 June 2026, all three collections are on display at Fa-So-La SOUVENIR AKIHABARA ANNEX inside Terminal 3 at Narita International Airport, where they join the store’s existing lineup of Japanese pop-culture goods. Ueni Trading describes the Narita placement as a limited-time offering, so availability may change — if you’re heading to Japan and transiting through Narita, it is worth a detour into the Terminal 3 shops to see them in person.

Narita is a primary hub for Singapore Airlines and Scoot flights to Tokyo, making this a realistic pick-up point for Singapore fans on Japan trips. For those not travelling any time soon, the watches are also stocked online at world-wide-watch.jp and select Japanese retailers including TiCTAC, Joshin, Sofmap and Yodobashi Camera’s online store — check each platform’s international shipping terms before ordering.

More information on all three collections is at world-wide-watch.jp (Japanese). Check more anime and Japan culture coverage on GameTrader.SG.

Ultraman Zero vs. Belial — A Rivalry 17 Years in the Making

The DLC brings both characters in their debut forms from the 2009 classic film Mega Monster Battle: Ultra Galaxy — The Movie, the film that first pitted the two against each other in what became one of the franchise’s most beloved confrontations. For Singapore fans who grew up with Ultraman on afternoon television, seeing these two in a modern kaiju brawler is a serious nostalgia hit.

Each character arrives with a distinct playstyle that maps to their on-screen personalities. Ultraman Zero is the precision fighter — his Zero Sluggers can be hurled to zone enemies at range, while his Emerium Slash lets him punish from mid-distance. His move set emphasises space martial arts and reactive play, rewarding players who like to read the opponent and counterattack.

Ultraman Belial: All Rage, All Power

Ultraman Belial is the counterpoint in every sense. Armed with the Giga Battlenizer, he’s a high-damage, aggressive character whose attacks carry the fury of someone who threw away everything for power. Dark fireballs cover the arena, the Belial Whip controls space at close range, and Belial Genothunder can shred opponents who overcommit. He’s a character who punishes recklessness — because he embodies it.

What makes the DLC interesting beyond the gameplay is how faithfully Passion Republic Games has translated both characters’ mythologies. The asymmetry in the matchup isn’t just aesthetic: Zero’s arc in the 2009 film is literally about overcoming his worst impulses to become a true hero, while Belial represents the road not taken. The lore runs deep, and the development team has clearly leaned into it.

Available on All Major Platforms — No Switch 2 Restrictions Here

The Ultraman Zero DLC releases across PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, PC via Steam, Epic Games Store, and STOVE. Singapore players on any of those platforms can grab it at launch. Note that due to regional licensing, the DLC is not available in Mainland China — no such restrictions apply here in Singapore.

If you haven’t played GigaBash yet, the base game is already a solid pick for fans of kaiju movies and arena brawlers. The roster leans heavily into tokusatsu icons alongside original kaiju, making it one of the few games where the Southeast Asian development scene has genuinely punched above its weight on the global stage.
