Maruhachi Kasei Launches 15 Types of Chunichi Dragons Luminous Fan Merchandise on April 14, 2026

Maruhachi Kasei Co., Ltd., based in Aichi Prefecture, will begin selling the first series of Chunichi Dragons approved licensed fan merchandise, 'Ouroboros Clip Oboro with carabiner,' on April 14, 2026, at 10:00 AM JST. These items, designed to store light and emit it in the dark, feature player uniform numbers and the Dragons logo. Developed to commemorate the team's 90th anniversary, the clips offer a new fan experience by making the team logo or favorite player's number glow in the dark. The main feature is the use of luminous material, which absorbs sunlight or artificial light and glows brightly in dark environments. This makes them suitable for night games, commuting, and even disaster preparedness. The product is made from weather-resistant luminous polycarbonate resin, ensuring high durability and beautiful luminescence. The lineup includes 15 variations: 13 player models (featuring players like Yuki Okabayashi, Mikio Tanaka, Shuhei Takahashi, Hiroki Fukunaga, Yohei Oshima, Yuta Ishii, Seiki Nakanishi, Hiroto Takahashi, Yumeto Kanemaru, Yudai Ohno, Seiji Uebayashi, Seiya Hosokawa, Shinya Matsuyama), a Doala model (number 1994), and a Dragons logo model. Customers can choose between green and blue luminous colors. The product is priced at 1,820 JPY (tax included) with free shipping and will be sold on Rakuten Ichiba and TikTok Shop. Maruhachi Kasei, established in 1974, specializes in the planning, manufacturing, and sales of plastic products.
