Animate has launched a Kujimate lottery based on Doki Doki Literature Club in Japan. People can purchase tickets priced at 770 yen (~$4.95) apiece, and each ticket is guaranteed to reward a prize item.
The primary highlight of this lottery will be the die-cut cushions with chibi illustrations of the visual novel’s four main characters—Sayori, Yuri, Monika, and Natsuki. The prize lineup will also include acrylic stands featuring the above characters with quotes in English.
Here is the complete list of prizes in the lottery, along with the probabilities and whether the buyer will be able to specify the exact item or not.
- A Prize – Die-cut cushion – Selectable – 3.0%
- B Prize – Ballpoint pen – Selectable – 15.0%
- C Prize – Acrylic stand – Random – 34.0%
- D Prize – Tin badge – Random – 48.0%
In addition, for every ten orders made in a single receipt, Animate will hand over a bonus random postcard based on a scene from the visual novel. The company will also make the shipping cost-free if the buyer spends more than 8,800 yen, or at least 12 tickets in this lottery.
Team Salvato’s visual novel Doki Doki Literature Club has been receiving numerous merchandise in Japan. In 2023, Good Smile Company revealed Nendoroids and Pop Up Parade figures based on the characters. SuperGroupies also released bags inspired by Monika and watches modeled after all four club members.
Animate will close the order period for the Doki Doki Literature Club Kujimate lottery on July 7, 2024. It will deliver the prizes in September 2024.
