It’s pretty common for clothing brands to do crossover collections with popular anime series, and Uniqlo is no exception. From Chainsaw Man to HAIKU!!, here are some of the best Uniqlo anime shirts and collections.
Naruto
Uniqlo’s Naruto series features shirts and sweatshirts with a good variety of designs. Most of them feature dramatic and dynamic splash art of the characters and artfully written Japanese writing. Whether depicting a fight scene or a peaceful lunch between the cast, the Naruto series fits a variety of aesthetics.
Fujiko
Coming in both adults and kids sizes, Uniqlo’s Fujiko series celebrates the franchise’s 90th anniversary. The designs are absolutely adorable. Most of them depict comic panels of the iconic characters, but there are some with the entire cast. There’s even two designs directly celebrating the 90th anniversary to mark the occasion.
Chainsaw Man
Featuring characters like Denji, Pochita, and Power, Uniqlo’s Chainsaw Man series of graphic tees and sweaters features original sketches, bold text, and comic panels. The series even has its own website. There are a couple of highlights from the collection: the Meowy’s Whereabouts shirt features storyboards from the anime, and the Makima shirt features a staggered yet striking image of Makima.
OSHI NO KO (Releasing on July 8, 2024)
Uniqlo’s OSHI NO KO series is worthy of an idol in her down time. The designs are small, yet cute. One features an adorable fancy bunny, another the heads of the protagonists with colourful lineart, and another with the anime’s iconic image on the back.
Case Closed
By far the best designs in Uniqlo’s Case Closed series are those featuring paintings of the characters mid-scene, capturing the beautiful moments from the anime and manga. The series also features some more low-key designs for those who prefer a bit more subtlety.
Kaiju No. 8 (Releasing on May 13, 2024)
The Kaiju No. 8 series features some of the coolest shirts available at Uniqlo. Two shirts stand out among them all, and they feature two huge designs of characters and motifs from the series splayed over the entire shirt’s back.
While most of the shirts in this series are appropriately edgy, there are a couple more graceful designs if you’re a fan of the anime but prefer something a little more feminine. The other shirts in Uniqlo’s Kaiju No. 8 series have lots of bold colors and dynamic designs worthy of the anime’s scope.
Haikyu!! (Releasing on May 23, 2024)
There might only be a few shirts in the Haikyu!! series of shirts, but the few that they do have are quite nice. From the cheeky white shirt that depicts the cast as chickens to the dramatic shirt where one of the characters’ arms turns into wings, what this series lacks in numbers, it makes up for in variety.
