Fuji Television Network, Inc. and Fuji Consumer Products LLC today unveiled the details of a large-scale collaboration project centered around April 2nd, "Gachapin & Mukku Minna Tomodachi no Hi" (Everyone's Friends Day).

Brighten Your New Spring Life. A Large-Scale Collaboration Project Where Everyone Can Find What They Love.

Today, details of a large-scale collaboration campaign, unfolding around April 2nd, "Minna Tomodachi no Hi," have been released. This campaign brings together Gachapin and Mukku, along with the unique characters born from the 'Ponkikki Series' that have been loved for a long time since its broadcast began in 1973. These characters are newly grouped as 'P-kies Family' and will collaborate with 50 companies, primarily apparel brands, restaurants, and commercial facilities in Shibuya and Harajuku, to develop over 500 types of products and projects.

Apparel and goods will include T-shirts, bags, key charms, and customizable sneakers. Collaboration products will be sequentially available at each company's street stores, directly managed stores, and official online stores. For restaurants, a variety of collaboration menus will be offered, including Harajuku's famous crepes, afternoon tea, and acai bowls. Furthermore, from April 17th (Friday), an art exhibition titled 'Minna no Ponkikkies Exhibition P-kies for Everyone' (organized by PARCO Co., Ltd.) will be held at PARCO MUSEUM TOKYO (Shibuya PARCO 4F). Projects that leverage the unique characteristics of each participating store will be developed to entertain visitors.

In addition, to commemorate "Gachapin & Mukku Minna Tomodachi no Hi," a newly produced original song, "Tomodachi no Uta" (Song of Friends) (music provided by Tamaya2060%), is also released today on various streaming services, and a lively dance video of the two characters matching the song will be published on official social media. Moreover, in Harajuku Takeshita Street, this song will be broadcast along with messages from the two until April 11th (Saturday).

Gachapin and Mukku, along with P-kies Family, are attracting attention as cultural icons loved across generations. They will spread happy energy from Shibuya and Harajuku, where anyone can become someone's "friend," throughout Japan.
