The TV anime 'SAKAMOTO DAYS' Evening Cool-Down Fair will run from August 1 to August 31, 2026, at Animate stores nationwide and the Animate Online Shop. The fair features newly drawn illustrations with an evening cool-down theme, showing characters Taro Sakamoto, Shin Asakura, Nagumo, X (Slur), Raku, and Ioha Seo in yukata. New summer goods include acrylic stands, character badge collections, hard card cases, sticker sets, a Yura Yura Glass, wooden tag charms, clear files, and an Aurora Art Collection. Prices range from 440 yen for clear files to 1,650 yen for acrylic stands and the glass. As a purchase bonus, customers receive one randomly selected postcard (six types total) for every 1,100 yen spent on eligible goods, or for each audio/visual product or Graffle food/drink item purchased or reserved. The postcards feature the characters in yukata with the message '暑中お見舞い申し上げます' (Summer greetings). Bonuses are given while supplies last and cannot be selected. Online lotteries, capsule machine products, Kumamay related items, some TCGs, and 2.5-dimensional products are excluded from the fair bonus.
The Evening Cool-Down Fair is one of several summer events for the series, following a pop-up shop at Shinjuku Marui Men 8F from August 14 to August 23, 2026, which uses a 'shopping' theme with nine characters in casual clothes. That event includes advance sale goods such as worn T-shirts based on the characters' outfits, trading badges, and acrylic stands, with a purchase lottery for Epos Card users.
At the Animate fair, the character badge collection comes in six series, each with six designs, priced at 440 yen per pack or 2,640 yen per box. The Aurora Art Collection has 20 types, sold as 495 yen per pack or 4,950 yen per box. The Yura Yura Glass, a single type, is the only non-trading item in the lineup. The fair bonus postcards are randomly distributed, and the six types feature the same yukata illustrations as the goods.
