The hunt isn’t over at Tsukiji Gindako. Japan’s beloved takoyaki chain is teaming up with HUNTER\u00d7HUNTER<\/strong> for a second collaboration<\/strong>, and this time it goes deeper \u2014 covering the Heaven’s Arena arc all the way through the Phantom Troupe arc. Running from 18 August through 17 November 2026<\/strong>, the collab brings Kurapika, Chrollo, Machi, Uvogin, and the full Phantom Troupe crew to Gindako locations across Japan, alongside returning fan favourites Gon and Killua.<\/p>\n

A Bigger Collab Than the First<\/h2>\n

Where the June 2026 debut collab focused on the Gon and Killua’s early journey, this second wave expands the cast significantly. The new collab artwork features chibi-style illustrations of the characters in formal attire \u2014 a delightfully unexpected styling choice that gives even the Phantom Troupe an oddly endearing charm. The Heaven’s Arena arc means Kurapika’s Nen abilities get their moment in the spotlight, while the Phantom Troupe arc brings Chrollo Lucilfer and his crew front and centre.<\/p>\n

Collab Menu and Items<\/h2>\n
\"Hunter
The Danran Pack (24 pcs) comes in a special collab box \u2014 and includes a Phantom Troupe clear file.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The full collab lineup includes:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • Collab Takoyaki (8 pcs)<\/strong> \u2014 standard octopus takoyaki in a special HUNTER\u00d7HUNTER sleeve, paired with an exclusive collab card<\/li>\n
  • Danran Pack (24 pcs)<\/strong> \u2014 the large shareable box dressed in HUNTER\u00d7HUNTER collab artwork, and comes with a Phantom Troupe clear file<\/strong> featuring Machi, Chrollo, and Uvogin<\/li>\n
  • Croissant Taiyaki Box (6 pcs)<\/strong> \u2014 Gindako’s croissant taiyaki in collab packaging<\/li>\n
  • Special Drink Set<\/strong> \u2014 the standout item of the collab (see below)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    The Star Item: Water Divination Card<\/h2>\n
    \"Hunter
    The Special Drink Set includes the original paper cup, a collab sticker, and the Water Divination Card (\u6c34\u898b\u5f0f\u30ab\u30fc\u30c9) that reveals your Nen type when submerged in water.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

    The Special Drink Set is the collab’s headline item for HxH fans. Priced at \u00a5580 (take-out)<\/strong> or \u00a5626\u2013638 (eat-in)<\/strong>, it bundles a Gindako drink in an original HUNTER\u00d7HUNTER paper cup, a collab sticker \u2014 and most excitingly, a \u6c34\u898b\u5f0f\u30ab\u30fc\u30c9 (Water Divination Card)<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

    True to the series’ lore, the card reveals your Nen type when you submerge it in water. It’s a small detail, but one that captures exactly why the Gindako \u00d7 HxH partnership works so well: the team clearly cares about the source material, not just slapping logos on packaging.<\/p>\n

A special stamp reward is planned for 1 September<\/strong>, with an additional seasonal special on 1 November<\/strong> \u2014 meaning regular visitors have extra incentive to come back across the three-month run.<\/p>\n
