Giant Gacha 'Monster Capsule' Featured at 'Ametalk! x -196 Roppongi Hills Otsumami Festival' in Tokyo

GreeGlobe Inc. (Headquarters: Bunkyo-ku, Tokyo; CEO: Masaharu Uemura), the company behind the planning and operation of the giant capsule machine 'Monster Capsule,' will provide its giant gacha for the food event 'Ametalk! x -196 Roppongi Hills Otsumami Festival.' The event will be held at the Roppongi Hills Arena in Tokyo from Friday, May 22, to Sunday, May 24, 2026.

This event is an interactive food festival in Roppongi, Tokyo, created through a collaboration between the popular TV Asahi program 'Ametalk!' and Suntory's '-196' beverage. It offers attendees the chance to enjoy snacks (otsumami) and drinks.

At the venue, the 'Ametalk! Gacha' will be deployed using the giant 'Monster Capsule.' As a hands-on activity for event-goers, it will help generate excitement and guide visitor traffic.

A Food Event Born from 'Ametalk!' to be Enjoyed in Roppongi, Tokyo

The 'Ametalk! x -196 Roppongi Hills Otsumami Festival' originated from the web-exclusive content 'Ametalk! Net Movie: Otsumami Draft Meeting.'

Following its successful run in Shinjuku last year, the event has moved to the Roppongi Hills Arena this year.

The venue will feature snacks drafted by popular comedians, as well as 'original snacks' invented by the comedians themselves—a first for the event. Visitors can enjoy their own 'snack draft' by combining 15 different snacks with 7 varieties of '-196.'

Additionally, the '-196' drinks will be sold at exceptionally low prices for a food festival. It is designed as a casual, early-summer event in Roppongi, Tokyo, that can be enjoyed by both fans of the show and newcomers alike.

Deployment of the Giant 'Ametalk! Gacha' at the Venue

The event will feature the 'Ametalk! Gacha,' utilizing the giant 'Monster Capsule.'

Visitors can participate in the gacha either by making a purchase of 3,000 JPY or more that includes '-196 Sugar-Free,' or by paying 1,000 JPY per play.

Prizes will include various 'Ametalk! FIRST LIVE' goods and rare items not available at the official goods store. The gacha guarantees a win for every spin, providing attendees with the thrill of not knowing what they will get.

The giant gacha serves as an eye-catching interactive attraction that easily stops visitors in their tracks. It is particularly effective at food festivals, commercial facilities, corporate promotions, and character events in Tokyo, acting as a visual draw and a catalyst for social media posts.

By adding the experience of spinning a giant gacha to the enjoyment of the food festival, the 'Ametalk! Gacha' will make it easier for attendees to participate and take photos, thereby contributing to the lively atmosphere of the venue.

Because attendees can play the giant gacha right after enjoying food and drinks, it serves as a content piece that enhances the enjoyment of their stay at the event.

Rather than simply distributing prizes, the goal is to elevate the experiential value of the Roppongi event venue by creating a seamless flow of 'buy,' 'eat,' 'drink,' 'spin,' 'win,' and 'take photos.'

Utilization of Giant Gachas in Tokyo's Event Attraction and Promotion

In recent years, there has been a growing demand in Tokyo's events and commercial facilities for interactive content that visitors can participate in on the spot.

Rather than relying solely on advertising to drive attendance, designing actions such as 'stopping,' 'lining up,' 'taking photos,' 'posting on social media,' and 'wanting to participate again' within the venue contributes significantly to event attraction and sales promotions.
