High-end pop culture brand SuperGroupies is opening pre-orders for a new collection of watches and backpacks inspired by the OSHI NO KO anime series. The new collection consists of six items in total, with each design based on the characters Aqua, Ruby, and Kana.
Each item from the new OSHI NO KO collection is made-to-order and available for pre-order until July 9, 2023 at 8:00 PM PST. Both watches and backpacks are priced at 19,800 yen (US$138.39) before tax, with orders closing early if the stock runs out. Additionally, the backpacks will be shipped out sometime in November 2023 while the watches are due out in December 2023.
The backpacks and watches are correlated with each of the characters’ main color themes. In this case, Aqua’s items are blue, Ruby’s items are pink, and Kana’s items are red. All three of the watches have star designs installed on the front face, marked with the words “Ichigo Production” at the top.
The zipper on the Aqua and Ruby backpacks have an attached distinctive star, in a callback to the characters’ starry eyes. Kana’s backpack is a more simple design, with plenty of compartments and space to put stuff in.
HIDIVE is currently streaming OSHI NO KO outside of Japan and describes the synopsis as:
When a pregnant young starlet appears in Gorou Amemiya’s countryside medical clinic, the doctor takes it upon himself to safely (and secretly) deliver Ai Hoshino’s child so she can make a scandal-free return to the stage. But no good deed goes unpunished, and on the eve of her delivery, he finds himself slain at the hands of Ai’s deluded stalker — and subsequently reborn as Ai’s child, Aquamarine Hoshino! The glitz and glamor of showbiz hide the dark underbelly of the entertainment industry, threatening to dull the shine of his favorite star. Can he help his new mother rise to the top of the charts? And what will he do when unthinkable disaster strikes?
