KADOKAWA announced the first online lottery commemorating the 20th anniversary of the anime adaptation of "The Familiar of Zero" on July 21. The lottery, hosted on the company's online service Kujibikido, will run from July 28 at 12:00 JST to August 25 at 11:59 JST. Each draw costs 770 yen including tax. Prizes include original goods using DVD and Blu-ray package illustrations: an S Prize of a selectable Charafine Graph (2 types), an A Prize of an A3 clear poster (6 types), a B Prize of an acrylic panel (6 types), a C Prize of an acrylic keychain (11 types), and a D Prize of a can badge (11 types). Buyers of a 10-draw set receive one random bromide (2 types) as a guaranteed bonus. A repost campaign on X (formerly Twitter) will select three winners by lottery to receive a B Prize acrylic panel set. The lottery is open to participants in Japan.
The lottery is the first of what KADOKAWA calls "Part 1" for the 20th anniversary, suggesting further rounds may follow later in the year. The S Prize Charafine Graph is a framed fine-art print that winners can choose from two designs. The A Prize clear posters and B Prize acrylic panels each come in six variants, while the C Prize keychains and D Prize badges offer 11 designs each, covering a wide range of characters from the series. The bonus bromide for 10-draw purchases is randomly selected from two types. The repost campaign on X requires following the official Kujibikido account and reposting the target post during the lottery period. KADOKAWA operates Kujibikido as a no-losing-draws online lottery service accessible via smartphone or PC. The franchise, based on the light novels by Noboru Yamaguchi, aired its first anime season in 2006.
