TV anime "Chiikawa" to hold "Forest of Ghosts" area at Odaiba summer event! Limited-edition goods and visitor gifts revealed

New details have been revealed all at once for "Chiikawa: Forest of Ghosts," the TV anime "Chiikawa" exhibition area within "ODAIBA FAN RISING – The Ultimate Summer Entertainment Frontier," a new real-world event to be held this summer at Fuji TV Headquarters — including area concept visuals, visitor gifts, and original merchandise.

The series is based on the manga posted on X by illustrator Nagano. It airs every Tuesday and Friday within "Mezamashi TV," and videos released on the official YouTube channel have surpassed 500 million total views combined. In addition, the series won the Grand Prix at the "Japan Character Grand Prix 2026" held in June 2026, becoming the first title ever to win three years in a row and claiming its fourth overall win.

The main content deployed at the event, "Chiikawa: Forest of Ghosts," is a walk-through attraction. Visitors can walk through a storyline in which the Chiikawa characters, wearing ghost sheets, go out for a nighttime walk and end up turning into ghosts after eating mysteriously glowing mushrooms. The scares are kept mild, making it enjoyable for a wide range of visitors, from small children to adults.

In addition, the shrine area will feature an original "Chiikawa Water Omikuji (Fortune-Telling)" and a "Chiikawa Super Jumbo Yo-Yo Fishing" game with a diameter of about 40cm. A photo spot, the "'Chiikawa the Movie: The Secret of the Mermaid Island' Photo Box," will also be set up, letting visitors take pictures against a backdrop inspired by the teaser visual for "Chiikawa the Movie: The Secret of the Mermaid Island," opening on Friday, July 24.

As a visitor gift, cards modeled after the "ofuda" (talismans) that appear at the venue will be handed out at random. Sized 95mm x 40mm — small enough to fit in a smartphone case — one card will be given per "1-Day Passport" ticket for the event.

At stores including the "Chiikawa Odaiba Shoten" merchandise booth, original goods featuring illustrations of the characters transformed into ghosts will be sold. The lineup includes plush mascots, cookies, stationery, and more, along with new movie-tie-in merchandise and Fuji TV-exclusive new anime goods. These items will also be available at the Fuji TV Shop "Fuji-san" Tokyo Station store and the official e-commerce site "Fuji TV e! Shop."
