rdfs:comment
  • Ichiban Kuji is a lottery handled every months by Banpresto. Each session features a specific set of Shonen Jump titles with exclusive lots, sometimes along other more common products. To participate to the lottery and maybe win items, you must buy ¥500 tickets in Japanese convenience stores (also called combini), toy stores like Jump stores, bookstores or Namco game centers. Premium sessions may call for ¥800 to ¥1,000 priced tickets instead. Generally, one store gets a pool of lots, containing a total of 100 lots with their accompanying ¥500 tickets. Some stores actually even allow people to pre-order a whole pool for the regular wholesale price of ¥50,000. The quantity of each prize is fixed by Banpresto for one pool. Here's a sample of what kind of allotment a pool can get, taken from

  • Ichiban Kuji is a lottery handled every months by Banpresto. Each session features a specific set of Shonen Jump titles with exclusive lots, sometimes along other more common products. To participate to the lottery and maybe win items, you must buy ¥500 tickets in Japanese convenience stores (also called combini), toy stores like Jump stores, bookstores or Namco game centers. Premium sessions may call for ¥800 to ¥1,000 priced tickets instead. Generally, one store gets a pool of lots, containing a total of 100 lots with their accompanying ¥500 tickets. Some stores actually even allow people to pre-order a whole pool for the regular wholesale price of ¥50,000. The quantity of each prize is fixed by Banpresto for one pool. Here's a sample of what kind of allotment a pool can get, taken from the December 2009 session of Ichiban Kuji Premium K-On!: Nevertheless, items can generally be bought directly in combini and specialized shops after a short while. Ichiban Kuji literally means The n°1 Lottery, or more explicitly The Best Lottery. The Last One prize is simply the prize you get when you buy the very last ticket at a shop. It's a new concept that Banpresto introduced during the second semester of 2011. What is listed here are the sessions that featured exclusive One Piece items since March 2008. Other sessions did have One Piece items but they were already available before in UFO Catcher. Mid-November 2010, with a session dedicated to K-On!, Banpresto started to apply a Super Deformed rendering to anime characters. They put those particular sessions under a new Ichiban Kuji brand: The World of Cute Characters (きゅんキャラわーるど Kyun Kara Wārudo), often lazily translated as Kyun Chara World. Kyun is a Japanese onomatopoeia used to express the tightening of one’s chest caused by powerful warm feelings of love, a feeling usually expressed by girls when seeing cute (i.e. moe 萌え) things. In 2012, Banpresto started to release some as regular UFO prizes under the Kyun Chara One Piece brand.
