ClaN Entertainment announced a new Sadako merchandise line launching July 9, 2026 at the TSUTAYA Kyoto IP Bookstore. The goods belong to the Character Creative Collection - The 24 Seasons of Japan series, which pairs horror icon Sadako with the solar term Shosho (Minor Heat), the period marking the start of full summer. Illustrator nii-otto created original art that places Sadako against a Kyoto backdrop of early summer heat, blending stillness and unease.
The product range includes four T-shirt designs, a tote bag, four canvas art pieces, four acrylic keychains, random trading rectangular can badges, and random trading karuta-style colored paper. Prices range from 660 yen for the badges to 5,940 yen for T-shirts. Customers who spend 3,300 yen or more per transaction receive one random Original Illustration Card as a purchase bonus.
