A pop-up shop for the TV anime 'Mermaid Melody Pichi Pichi Pitch' titled 'Moonlit Mermaid Sonata' will open on August 21, 2026, at Tower Records Shibuya Store 4F in Tokyo. The shop features a newly drawn illustration of the three main mermaid princesses-Lucia, Hanon, and Rina-dancing under moonlight, a departure from their usual bright stage costumes. The event will tour three locations: Tokyo (August 21-31), Fukuoka (September 25-October 4), and Osaka (October 8-18). Online sales run from September 25 to October 25 at the Anique shop. The merchandise lineup includes 11 items, such as trading glitter can badges (660 yen each), aurora acrylic keyholders (880 yen), foil-stamped clear photo cards (660 yen), hologram clear stickers (990 yen), clear files (550 yen), postcard packs (660 yen), acrylic stands (1,650 yen), a diorama acrylic stand recreating a moonlit sea scene (4,400 yen), acrylic coasters (880 yen), multi clear pouches (1,540 yen), and tote bags (3,080 yen). A purchase bonus offers random original bromides for every 3,300 yen spent, with different designs at venues and online.
The Nijimen article notes that the moonlit theme gives the mermaid motif a "mysterious quality" by replacing the sun on the sea surface with moonlight. The costumes in the newly drawn illustration incorporate star motifs, pearl decorations, and layered sheer fabrics designed to catch night light. The shiny material finishes on the goods-glitter, aurora, foil stamping, and hologram-are intended to stand out against the dim moonlight backdrop.
The purchase bonus system offers four types of original bromides at the venue and four different designs online. The venue version includes solo cuts of Lucia, Hanon, and Rina plus a group illustration. The online version uses different compositions, encouraging collectors to acquire both sets. Quantities are limited and will end when stock runs out.
Purchase limits apply: trading items are capped at five BOX equivalents per product per transaction, BOX purchases at five per product, and open items at five per design per transaction. The Tokyo venue opens nearly a month before online sales begin, allowing visitors to see items in person before ordering more through the web shop. The first day of the Fukuoka venue and the start of web orders both fall on September 25.
