Round One Entertainment, Inc. (President / CEO: Akira Ide) is pleased to announce a collaboration campaign with the globally popular TV anime “ONE PIECE”, launching simultaneously across Japan and the U.S. beginning Saturday, July 18, 2026. This marks the first time Round1 has launched a TV anime collaboration concurrently in both Japan and the United States, comprising 59 Round1 locations across the U.S. and 100 locations throughout Japan.
The limited-time campaign will run through October 17, 2026, bringing fans an immersive entertainment experience built around one of the world’s most beloved anime franchises. As part of the collaboration, Round1 will debut 27 exclusive merchandise items and prizes featuring newly created artwork available only through the Round1 and “ONE PIECE” collaboration.
One of the campaign’s main attractions is an all-new set of 10 original ONE PIECE CARD GAME designs created exclusively for Round1. Fans selected through the registration process will have the opportunity to collect up to ten exclusive collaboration cards by making qualifying reloads to their Round1 Game Card during the promotional period. Fans can also enjoy a variety of themed experiences across participating locations, including photo spots, ONE PIECE-themed crane game installations, limited-edition plush toys and collectible figures, special collaboration packages for activities such as bowling and karaoke, and exclusive beverage offerings.
“This is the largest collaboration between Japan and the U.S., involving 159 stores, with the globally popular ‘ONE PIECE.’ Thanks to Round1’s extensive network of stores in both Japan and the U.S., we are able to deliver an entertainment experience that transcends borders.” said Eiji Kawaguchi, President and CEO of Round1 Japan.
