Four New Schools Join the Cooking Class

The first Haikyu!! x All Hearts Company collab, held from May 15 to June 15, 2025, stuck to the show's two headline teams. It was titled "Karasu to Neko no Chori Jisshu!!" (roughly "The Crows and Cats' Cooking Class!!") and built its bread and pastries around Karasuno and Nekoma.

Round two widens the roster. According to the press release GK Marketing posted to Japanese PR distribution site PR TIMES, the new theme is "Kyogo Shuketsu! Minna de Chori Jisshu!!" (roughly "Powerhouses Assemble! Everybody's Cooking Class!!"). Aoba Johsai, Date Tech, Shiratorizawa and Inarizaki now join Karasuno and Nekoma, and the merch uses newly drawn illustrations of Shoyo Hinata and the rest of the cast taking on a cooking class.

All Hearts Company is a Japanese bakery-and-patisserie group with stores nationwide. The collab runs at select locations of four of its brands: Heart Bread Antique, Nekoneko, Benkei and Pastel. GK Marketing, the company handling the goods side, is a subsidiary of Gokurakuyu Holdings, which is better known in Japan for its Gokurakuyu and RAKU SPA bath houses.

The Merch Lineup

The trading (blind-box) items come in two eight-character sets. Set A covers Shoyo Hinata, Tobio Kageyama, Toru Oikawa, Hajime Iwaizumi, Morisuke Yaku, Lev Haiba, Atsumu Miya and Osamu Miya. Set B covers Kei Tsukishima, Yu Nishinoya, Tetsuro Kuroo, Kenma Kozume, Takanobu Aone, Kenji Futakuchi, Wakatoshi Ushijima and Satori Tendo.

Each set is available in four formats:

  • Trading acrylic blocks, ¥990 each (up to about 59 x 80 mm)
  • Trading tin badges, ¥550 each (about 57 mm across)
  • Trading acrylic name plates, ¥880 each (up to about 80 x 50 mm)
  • Trading "shaka shaka" keychains with a loose mini-part inside, ¥990 each (about 55 x 75 mm)

A separate trading two-piece acrylic keychain runs ¥990 across eight designs. Among the non-random items, there is a ceramic toast plate at ¥1,980 (about 161 mm across) and a stainless steel tumbler at ¥2,750. The tumbler is the one item with a delayed in-store launch; the release says shop-floor sales are expected around late October.

The GK Store online shop will also sell complete sets of each trading line, which is the way to go if you want every design without gambling on pulls.

Bread, Sweets and the Store-Only Coaster Bonus

The official collab page lists the food side. Highlights include Oikawa's Milk Bread (¥490), Iwaizumi's cheese bread (¥500), Osamu Miya's tuna-mayo-corn bread and Atsumu Miya's mentaiko-potato rice-ball-style bread (¥430 each), a Karasuno orange chocolate ring (¥860), and cat-shaped Nekoneko loaves for Kenma and Kuroo (¥1,500 per loaf). Puddings with character illustrations (¥500) rotate designs during the run.

In stores, every ¥2,000 spent on collab bread or goods earns one random coaster. The designs split into two halves: the first batch starts October 1 and the second starts October 22, each running until stock is gone. Online purchases do not qualify, and separate receipts cannot be combined.

All Hearts Company's own online shop, All Hearts Mall, sells set bundles only, pairing collab bread with exclusive items such as a foldable eco bag. One bundle, the "Haikyu!! Marugoto Bread Set" (roughly "The Whole Haikyu!! Bread Set"), opens for advance orders on September 20 at noon Japan time, with shipping on October 1.

Looking Ahead

The in-store campaign runs October 1 to November 17, 2026. GK Store online orders are open from noon on October 1 through 11:59 p.m. on November 24, but the release notes that shipping is planned for March 2027 or later, so overseas buyers using a forwarding service should expect a long wait. All Hearts Mall's set sales close November 24 as well. No international shipping details are mentioned in the release.

For the anime itself, the franchise's next stop is 2027: Haikyu!! Movie: VS The Little Giant, the follow-up to 2024's Haikyu!! The Dumpster Battle, and the special anime Haikyu!! Bakemono-tachi no Iku Tokoro are both scheduled for that year, with Production I.G (Ghost in the Shell, Psycho-Pass) continuing on production. The TV series streams on Crunchyroll, which added an English dub for seasons 1 and 2 in November 2025. Haruichi Furudate's original manga is published in English by Viz Media.
