Rilakkuma, the beloved lazy bear, is about to face his toughest challenge yet — the legendary “Soaring Wall” of TBS’s SASUKE. A collaboration between the anime Rilakkuma and the long-running obstacle course show has been announced, bringing a line of merchandise and a themed cafe to fans.
Merchandise for SASUKE World Cup 2026
To celebrate the broadcast of SASUKE World Cup 2026 on August 24 (Monday) at 19:00, a special collaboration goods lineup will be released. The key visual features Rilakkuma and friends napping atop the iconic “Soaring Wall” — a perfect blend of SASUKE‘s intense world and Rilakkuma’s laid-back charm. Other items include T-shirts with the collaboration logo, showing the characters relaxing while watching the competition, and die-cut stickers.
Collaboration Cafe at Branche Park
Starting August 27 (Thursday), a limited-time collaboration cafe will open at Branche Park in Akasaka, produced by TBS’s popular program Ousama no Brunch. The cafe menu is inspired by the second season of the anime Rilakkuma, titled “Tekuteku World Travel.” Guests can enjoy dishes that evoke the show’s travel theme, such as:
- Rilakkuma’s Pyramid Koshari
- Kiiroitori’s Kaiser Schmarrn
- Rilakkuma with Eye Mask: Nobiri Blue Sky Soda
Sales Information
The SASUKE × Rilakkuma collaboration goods will be available for pre-order online at TBS Shopping from August 6 (Thursday). In-store sales will begin on August 24 (Monday) at TBS Store and Branche Park in Akasaka.
Through this collaboration, fans can experience a new side of the anime Rilakkuma — one that mixes its gentle humor with the high-energy world of SASUKE.
