Overlap has two projects running in late 2026: a three volume Pokemon art book set releasing December 18, and a two-venue Gothic Halloween event from its BL label LiQulle, with the cafe closing October 18 and the shop running to October 25.
Overlap's recent output sits in two different lanes. In September the company revealed cover designs for Pocket Monsters Visual Art Book, a three volume collection marking the Pokemon series' 30th anniversary, supervised by The Pokemon Company and GAME FREAK. The set releases December 18 and spans Pocket Monsters Red and Green from 1996 to Pokemon LEGENDS Z-A M Dimension Rush from 2025, gathering pixel art, 3DCG, illustrations, promotional art and design documents, including unpublished material.
Each volume runs roughly 500 pages, about 1,500 across the set, and is priced at 5,500 yen per volume. That gives Overlap a large archival release in the book market at the same time its BL label LiQulle is running a retail event. The Halloween program is split across two venues within walking distance: a pop up shop at Shosen Book Tower in Akihabara and a collab cafe at STELLAMAP Cafe.
Characters from eight LiQulle works appear in newly drawn Gothic Halloween illustrations, with work tied to titles by Inuno Mageyuishi, Kaniu Mai, CRPN and others. The two venues keep separate schedules and separate goods. The cafe closes October 18; the shop runs until October 25. Each venue has its own limited items and purchase bonus, which makes the event a two-stop circuit rather than a single location.
