The project signals a deliberate two-year buildup to the 30th anniversary, with a curated selection that reframes the show's legacy around its strangest episodes rather than its most popular ones.

NHK Enterprises announced the Ojarumaru 30th Anniversary Project on July 17, two years ahead of the series' 30th broadcast anniversary in October 2027. The first phase is the Ojarumaru Relaxed Mysterious Masterpiece Selection, a streaming collection of 50 episodes from 2016-2025 that were notable for their oddity. The episodes begin streaming on services including d Anime Store and Hulu. Commemorative T-shirts, plush toys, and re-released merchandise also launch.
The Ojarumaru 30th Anniversary Project is not leading with its biggest hits. The first phase, announced July 17, is a streaming collection of 50 episodes from the 2016-2025 broadcast era that NHK Enterprises is calling the 'Relaxed Mysterious Masterpiece Selection' - a deliberate pivot toward episodes that generated buzz for their oddity. The selection includes entries from the 'Ojamen' series. Distribution begins on d Anime Store, Hulu, and other platforms. Alongside the streams, a commemorative T-shirt with a collage of single frames from the 50 episodes is available via Amazon Merch on Demand. Plush toys and a reissue of the Mejirushi Accessory line are also planned. The project runs through the 30th anniversary of the first broadcast on October 5, 2027.
