If you could share a meal with any character from Haikyu!!, who would you choose? The Jump Shop, Animate, and book stores and hobby shops across Japan will sell tickets to win your favorite character on a tri-fold cut out so you never have to eat alone again. The Ichiban Kūji lottery "Haikyu!! ~Eat rice, eat meat, eat vegetables!~" campaign will launch on September 30 with a goods line-up featuring the characters eating various foods.
Most of the prizes are the aforementioned tri-folds or "window art boards" created specifically to act as meal partner. Additional prizes include acrylic character stands and cell phone charms. The "Last One" and "Double Chance" prize is a 12-page booklet with additional information about each of the tri-fold illustrations. Each ticket entry costs 620 yen.
The third season of the Haikyu!! volleyball anime premiered last October and ran for 10 episodes. It followed underdog team Karasuno as they faced favorite Shiratorizawa for the opportunity to go to Nationals. Haikyu!! Sainō to Sense, the film compilation of the second season opens on September 15 followed by the third season compilation film Haikyu!! Concept no Tatakai on September 29.
