The world of Hunter x Hunter continues to captivate fans even during the manga’s extended hiatus, with exciting merchandise keeping the adventure alive. Graniph, Japan’s premier graphic apparel brand specializing in high-quality collaborations with anime, manga, and pop culture icons, has announced its second major HUNTER x HUNTER capsule collection. This latest drop focuses on the beloved Greed Island arc and is scheduled for release on June 2, 2026. Pre-orders opened on May 27 via the official Graniph online store.
This follow-up builds on the successful first collide from April 2025, which covered the Hunter Exam through Yorknew City arcs with 14 items featuring iconic moments like the Phantom Troupe and the main quartet (Gon, Killua, Leorio, Kurapika). The new Greed Island-themed line expands to around 20 items, incorporating game cards, Nen abilities, memorable scenes, and characters like Biscuit Krueger, Goreinu, and more.

why
The Greed Island arc (roughly episodes 60-90 in the 2011 anime adaptation) stands out as one of Hunter x Hunter‘s most creative and high-stakes storylines. Created by the late Ging Freecss as a magical video game made from Nen, it serves as both a training ground and a deadly quest for Gon and Killua to find Ging. The arc blends gaming mechanics, card-based battles, emotional growth, and intense confrontations with Bombers and other players.
Graniph’s choice to theme this collaboration around Greed Island is strategic. It taps into nostalgia for the arc’s unique world-building—spell cards like “Accompany,” “Magnetic Force,” “Clone,” and “Risky Dice”—while offering fresh designs that feel playful yet premium. Fans have long praised the arc for its mix of lighthearted game elements and darker undertones, making it ideal for vibrant, wearable art.
Key highlights from announcements include:
- T-shirts and loose-fit graphics featuring card motifs, character portraits, and scene recreations.
- Hoodies and sweatshirts with embroidered or all-over prints of Greed Island elements.
- Accessories like caps, mini shoulder bags, custom pouches, socks, and even boxer shorts.
- Bottoms such as shorts that continue the adventurous, casual streetwear vibe.
Prices are expected to range similarly to previous drops: T-shirts around ¥3,500–¥5,900, hoodies ¥5,900+, and accessories ¥1,200–¥3,900 (tax included). This makes the collection accessible while maintaining Graniph’s reputation for quality cotton blends, durable prints, and comfortable fits suitable for everyday wear.
flow
Graniph has built a strong reputation since its founding for turning licensed properties into wearable art that appeals to both hardcore otaku and casual fashion fans. Unlike fast-fashion tie-ins, Graniph emphasizes premium materials, thoughtful design layouts, and limited-run exclusivity that creates buzz.
Their Hunter x Hunter collabs exemplify this: the 2025 drop featured detailed panel prints of the Phantom Troupe, embroidered whale island scenes, and loose silhouettes that nodded to the characters’ personalities. The Greed Island follow-up promises even more creativity—expect “card” graphics that mimic the in-game interface, dynamic action poses, and subtle Nen aura effects in the prints.
This strategy keeps the brand relevant in 2026, a year filled with Hunter x Hunter hype. With rumors and confirmations of manga resumption, new games like Nen x Impact, and potential animation projects circulating, merchandise like this serves as a bridge for fans awaiting new canon content.
scope
While full official catalogs are best viewed on Graniph’s site, early leaks and announcements highlight several standout pieces:
- Greed Island T-Shirt – Central logo or game title with surrounding card icons. Loose fit for comfort.
- Gon & Killua Duo Prints – Capturing their partnership inside the game world.
- Biscuit Krueger “Cookie-chan” Designs – Playful takes on her transformation and training scenes.
- Spell Card All-Over Prints – Button-ups or tees covered in iconic cards like “Paladin’s Necklace” or dodgeball references.
- Phantom Troupe Echoes – Subtle nods tying back to earlier arcs, maintaining collection continuity.
- Accessories Line – Tote-style bags, caps with “Player” motifs, and small pouches perfect for carrying ay “cards” (phones, wallets).
The collection includes both regular and limited colorways, with some items featuring special embroidery or glow-in-the-dark elements for premium appeal. Sizing spans unisex options from S to XL, with relaxed Japanese streetwear cuts.
cept
Hunter x Hunter remains a juggernaut in the shonen genre, created by Yoshihiro Togashi. Its themes of friendship, ambition, moral complexity, and the joy of discovery resonate across generations. Merch collaborations like this one allow fans to express their love daily—wearing a Greed Island tee to work or a con can spark conversations and build community.
Early social media reactions to the announcement have been overwhelmingly positive, with fans excited about the arc-specific focus. Many noted how the first collab sold out quickly, advising others to pre-order promptly. Graniph’s online store saw traffic spikes, with some reports of temporary server strain similar to past high-demand drops.
For international fans, while physical stores are Japan-centric (LaLaport, etc.), the official site often ships globally or through proxies. Keep an eye on resale platforms like Mercari or eBay post-release, though official purchases ensure authenticity and quality.
broad
This Graniph drop arrives at an exciting time. The manga has seen sporadic updates, with Togashi confirming batches of chapters in the works. 2026 is shaping up as a potential “return year” for new content. Additional merchandise waves—including Animate fairs, gashapon, and other collabs—signal strong industry confidence.
Graniph’s involvement underscores the series’ enduring commercial power. By focusing on Greed Island, they avoid repeating the first collection’s themes and instead celebrate a self-contained, fan-favorite saga that highlights growth, strategy, and the thrill of the unknown—mirroring the spirit of becoming a Hunter.
style
These pieces are designed for real-life use beyond fandom display:
- Casual Outfits: Pair Greed Island tees with jeans or chinos for a clean anime-inspired look.
- Layering: Hoodies over the graphic tees for cooler months, or button-ups as statement shirts.
- Streetwear Edge: Combine with sneakers and caps from other collabs (New Era HxH hats, for example) for full fits.
- Care: Graniph items generally hold up well with cold washes and inside-out drying to preserve prints.
Collectors should consider buying duplicates—popular sizes and designs often sell out fast and appreciate on secondary markets.
