April Fools' Project Becomes Reality! "Oshi No Ko" Kana Arima Collaboration Event Starts on Hakone Pirate Ship

The Hakone Pirate Ship, operated by Odakyu Hakone (Odawara City, Kanagawa Prefecture, President Hidehiro Mizukami), will hold a collaboration event "Oshi No Ko × Lake Ashi" to commemorate the appointment of Kana Arima, a character from the popular work "Oshi No Ko," as captain of the Hakone Pirate Ship, from Thursday, April 2nd to Sunday, May 31st.

This work is based on a blockbuster manga created by the duo of Aka Akasaka and Mengo Yokoyari. The story begins when Goro Amamiya, an obstetrician-gynecologist, is reincarnated as Aqua Hoshino, the son of his beloved idol Ai Hoshino. The third season of the TV anime has been broadcast every Wednesday at 11:00 PM on TOKYO MX and 36 stations nationwide since January 14th, and simultaneous terrestrial broadcast and exclusive first streaming on ABEMA has also been implemented.

This event is a special project that was realized after the April Fools' Day announcement of "Kana Arima's Appointment as Captain of Hakone Pirate Ship," released on April 1st, received a huge response. During the period, in addition to selling boarding tickets with original acrylic keychains, panel exhibitions and ship interior decorations will be implemented. Also, at "PIRATE'S GALLEY" inside Moto-Hakone Port and "Ashinoko Chaya," located just outside the port, collaboration drinks and limited goods inspired by Kana Arima will be sold. Visitors can enjoy a special cruise on Lake Ashi together with Kana Arima dressed as a pirate.
