Synthesized from 2 Yomimono stories · updated 2d ago

Black Lagoon is marking its 25th anniversary with two concurrent promotional pushes. The June issue of Monthly Sunday GX announced an upgraded anniversary exhibition for the series, bundled alongside a Jormungand 20th anniversary exhibition and a four-month stand campaign for The Apothecary Diaries. The magazine did not specify the exhibition's dates or location.

Separately, British-style pub chain HUB announced a second collaboration round with the manga, running from August 7 to August 30. The event features newly drawn illustrations by creator Rei Hiroe, limited goods, and themed drinks and food. Visuals of Levi and other characters in bar outfits were released ahead of full details. The collaboration extends a promotional tie-in that began with an earlier round.

Together, the two announcements show the series receiving coordinated anniversary treatment across a magazine exhibition and a retail partnership, both timed to 2026. No new anime or manga chapters have been announced in either story.
