Graniph is running two licensed apparel collaborations at once: additional Dragon Quest pre-orders opened on September 18, 2026, and a ten-item FAIRY TAIL 20th anniversary line goes on sale October 27, 2026.
Graniph's licensing business in 2026 is defined by two anime and game apparel lines moving through pre-order and sale on separate tracks. The Dragon Quest goods had a troubled launch: the September 11, 2026 pre-order was hit by continuing connection failures on the official online store, and Graniph responded by opening a second pre-order window at around 10:00 on September 18, 2026 rather than leaving the collaboration sold out. That wave runs to 13 items, among them a Slime T-shirt, a Gangan Ikouze T-shirt, a King Slime ZIP hoodie, an Adventure Shoulder Bag and a Zero-Gravity Backpack, with a Sakusen Acrylic Keyholder for buyers spending 7,700 yen or more.
The FAIRY TAIL line takes a different route. It marks 20 years since Hiro Mashima's manga began serialization and is the franchise's collaboration with graniph, set for October 27, 2026. Ten items are listed: T-shirts, a hoodie, a jacquard knit and a fleece blouson, with embroidery and prints drawn from Natsu, Lucy, Happy, Mystogan and the Grand Magic Games.
What connects the two is the merchandise itself, not any change in the underlying franchises. The FAIRY TAIL anniversary is being marked through apparel. Coverage of the Dragon Quest run is about store capacity and demand management, not the products.
