Graniph, the Japanese apparel brand known for its graphic tees and collaborations with numerous manga and anime properties, is teaming up with gag manga artist Usuta Kyousuke for a new collection. The “Usuta Kyousuke Collection” includes 12 items—T-shirts, a parka, a coach jacket, caps, and more—and will be available from September 29, 2026. Pre-orders are open on the Graniph official online store until September 28 at 23:59.
Usuta Kyousuke, born in Aichi and raised in Kumamoto, received the 2nd GAG King Special Prize in 1990 and made his debut in Weekly Shonen Jump in 1991. Known for his uniquely surreal humor, he is the creator of the hit manga Sugoi yo!! Masaru-san and Pyu to Fuku! Jaguar, both of which have been adapted into anime. Since May 2025, he has been serializing Arabake! Arataki Gungun Park on Shonen Jump+.
On the Graniph official website, an interview with Usuta is also available, where he talks about having bought Graniph T-shirts for a long time and shares his impressions of this collection.

‘Sugoi yo!! Masaru-san’ Items
The collection includes two pieces based on the iconic Sugoi yo!! Masaru-san. The “Elise no Yuuutsu” big silhouette long-sleeve T-shirt features Masaru, Fuumin, and Machahiko performing the basic move “Elise no Yuuutsu.” The right sleeve carries the department’s rallying cry “Wonchuu!!”, while the back features an embroidered version of Masaru’s drawing of the “Hige-bu” symbol “Gohan.”
The “Bosukete” big silhouette T-shirt takes its design from Keith, a member of the mysterious invention group “KegeharoKen,” and his SOS message sent via a robot pitcher. The message “Bosukete” is expressed with foam printing, and the back features Boss’s famous line: “Boss, don’t run, walk quickly, and hurry to help us… right?” This is the perfect shirt for when you need someone to help you.
‘Pyu to Fuku! Jaguar’ Items
From Pyu to Fuku! Jaguar, the “Gakkari Illusion” zip parka focuses on Jaguar’s summer festival act. The zombie signboard that was on display at the entrance is featured on the chest, the entrance fee is embroidered on the left sleeve, and the inside pocket contains embroidered details of Jaguar wearing a zombie mask, a TV showing the fireworks, and a goldfish scoop. The hood carries the text “Gabiin,” and the back features “Jaguar Presents Gakkari Illusion” embroidery.

The “Nanka no Sanagi” coach jacket is inspired by the debut single of “Hammer” (Hamawari Hiromitsu). The front chest features an embroidered “Kawarimi no Hammer,” and the right shoulder has “Hammer peeking from the ceiling.” This is the jacket for anyone aiming to make their major debut.
Mascot Items and More
The “Mokyu” T-shirt from Sugoi yo!! Masaru-san features the mysterious mascot “Meso” from the series. Take a closer look—you might spot the face of Masaru’s father, Satoru, hidden in the design.
The “Nyampyou” cap from Pyu to Fuku! Jaguar showcases the mascot character from the signboard Jaguar places in front of Nyan Nyan Records, embroidered on the front. Even though the two items come from different series, they coordinate nicely together.
Graniph’s Own Character Joins In
In this special collaboration, Graniph’s mascot character Beautiful Shadow becomes Hammer’s apprentice in the “Hammer Shadow” T-shirt and charm. With these, you might just become a “hip-hop ninja.”
Latest Series ‘Arabake! Arataki Gungun Park’
The design of the T-shirt based on the first volume cover of Arabake! Arataki Gungun Park is a chaotic blend of unknown life-forms called “Mesos”—like “Kumamuchi” and “Ketsushorudaa”—surrounding the art. The back right shoulder also features a subtle “Fuwachami” print.
