TL;DR
Netflix put Jujutsu Kaisen: The Culling Game Part 1 in front of a global audience on 23 July 2026, but the goods tied to that arc were made for the Japanese domestic market in early 2026 and were never exported. As of August 2026 the cheapest way to buy Jujutsu Kaisen merch is to shop Japanese resale directly through a proxy — figures start around ¥2,000, and OneMall’s Mercari service fee is ¥200–¥300 per order.
- Season 3 already finished in Japan — 12 episodes, 9 January to 27 March 2026 on MBS/TBS[1]. The merch wave came and went months before the Netflix drop.
- Ichiban Kuji is the big gap — the official BANDAI SPIRITS lottery is sold only at Japanese convenience stores, bookshops and hobby shops[2]. Prizes never enter an export catalogue; they only exist on Japanese resale.
- Prize figures are the value buy — kuji and prize-line Gojo figures resell for ¥2,000–¥3,000, well under what Western importers charge.
- Consolidate before you ship — small goods are light but bulky; the first six orders combine free, then ¥100 per extra order.
- Part 2 is confirmed but undated — announced straight after the finale[1], with no broadcast window as of August 2026. Prices on Part 1 goods are at their softest right now.
Here is the timing problem nobody warns new fans about: Japan finished watching the Culling Game in March, sold the merchandise that spring, and moved on. The rest of the world only started watching in late July. By the time a Netflix viewer goes shopping in August 2026, the English-language stores are still cycling Shibuya-arc stock from 2024, and the Culling Game goods are sitting in Japanese resale listings written entirely in Japanese. That gap is the whole opportunity.
As of August 2026, this guide covers what Jujutsu Kaisen merch actually exists in Japan, which categories are genuinely Japan-only, what the real prices look like, and the cheap and cheapest ways to get it shipped to you.
Why Jujutsu Kaisen merch is a Japan-only problem
Jujutsu Kaisen is a Shueisha property serialised in Weekly Shonen Jump[3], and the overwhelming majority of its merchandise is licensed for the Japanese domestic market first. Three categories in particular never make it out:
1. Ichiban Kuji prizes
Ichiban Kuji is a paid lottery run by BANDAI SPIRITS. You buy a ticket in a Japanese shop and every ticket wins something — a figure, a towel, a mug. The official site lists two more Jujutsu Kaisen kuji scheduled for September 2026[2], and states plainly that they are sold at convenience stores, bookshops and hobby shops across Japan. There is no international channel. Every kuji prize you see outside Japan came out of a Japanese resale listing.
2. Prize-line (kei-hin) figures
SEGA, Taito, FuRyu and Banpresto produce arcade-prize figures that are technically not for retail sale at all — they are crane-game and lottery prizes. They are cheap in Japan, well sculpted for the price, and effectively invisible in Western retail. Luminasta, FIGURIZMα, MAXIMATIC and Noodle Stopper are all lines you will see in Japanese listings and almost nowhere else.
3. Event and store exclusives
Jump Shop items, cinema bonus goods from the 2025 Execution compilation film, and pop-up-shop acrylics are produced in small runs for a single venue. Once the run sells out, resale is the only market.
What Jujutsu Kaisen merch actually costs in Japan
These are live Japanese resale listings, priced in yen at the time of writing. The figure is what the seller is asking; OneMall’s service fee sits on top and is capped.
The spread is the point. A kuji B-prize Gojo — a figure that was physically impossible to buy outside Japan — is around ¥2,000. A sealed Figuarts ZERO statue from Tamashii Nations[4] is ¥12,000. A Good Smile Company Nendoroid[5] lands in between. All three are the same shipment if you consolidate them.
Cheap vs cheapest: four ways to buy Jujutsu Kaisen merch
| Route | What you can get | Typical markup vs Japan price | Verdict |
|---|---|---|---|
| Western anime retailer | Mass-market figures, apparel | High — import margin baked in | Convenient, never cheapest, no kuji or prize lines |
| eBay / resale marketplaces | Almost anything, including kuji prizes | Very high — seller already paid a proxy | You are paying someone else’s proxy fee plus their profit |
| Japanese official online stores | Current retail figures only | None, but most refuse overseas cards and addresses | Cheap in theory, blocked in practice |
| Proxy service (OneMall) | Mercari, Yahoo! Auctions, Suruga-ya, Amazon JP — the full resale market | Japan price + ¥200–¥300 service fee + shipping | Cheapest route to Japan-only goods |
The fee structure is what decides it. On Mercari[6], OneMall charges a flat ¥200 service fee on orders up to ¥7,000 and 3% above that, capped at ¥300 (as of 2026). On the ¥12,000 Figuarts ZERO above, that is ¥300 — not ¥360, because the cap bites.
How to buy Jujutsu Kaisen merch from Japan: the step-by-step
- Step 1 — Search in Japanese. Type 呪術廻戦 rather than “Jujutsu Kaisen”. Japanese sellers write Japanese titles, and the English query returns a fraction of the inventory. Add フィギュア (figure), 一番くじ (Ichiban Kuji) or アクリルスタンド (acrylic stand) to narrow it. OneMall also has AI image search — upload a screenshot of a figure and it finds matching listings without you typing anything.
- Step 2 — Order through OneMall. Paste the item URL or order from the search results. OneMall buys on your behalf from any supported Japanese platform, and its LinkBuy feature covers stores outside that list.
- Step 3 — Let items pile up in the warehouse. Storage is free for 90 days. Anime goods are the ideal consolidation candidate because a single acrylic stand costs almost nothing to ship next to a figure box.
- Step 4 — Add inspection if you are buying used. Basic unboxing photos confirm a “sealed” figure is actually sealed and that a prize figure has no paint rubs before it leaves Japan.
- Step 5 — Consolidate. The first six orders combine into one parcel free; each additional order is ¥100. Consolidation typically cuts international shipping 30–50% versus shipping each item separately.
- Step 6 — Pick a carrier. EMS through Japan Post[7] is the usual balance of speed and cost for a figure-sized box; DHL is faster and dearer; sea mail is cheapest and slow. Shipping is billed on the greater of actual and volumetric weight, so a big empty figure box can cost more than its weight suggests.
- Step 7 — Budget for duty. The United States revoked its US$800 de minimis exemption on 29 August 2025[8], so US-bound parcels are dutiable regardless of value. Check your own country’s threshold before you consolidate a large order.
Which Jujutsu Kaisen goods are worth buying now
With Part 2 confirmed but undated[1], Culling Game goods are in the quiet part of the cycle — the Japanese hype has passed and the next wave has not started. Concretely:
- Buy now: Part 1 kuji prizes and prize-line figures. Supply is at its peak and Japanese sellers are clearing shelf space.
- Buy now: back-catalogue Shibuya-arc goods. Two anime seasons on, these are genuinely cheap in Japan and still command import prices abroad.
- Wait: anything tied to the September 2026 kuji[2]. Prices spike in the first fortnight after a kuji launches and settle roughly a month later.
- Be careful: unbranded “figures” with no maker named in the listing. Prize figures always carry a maker — SEGA, Taito, FuRyu, Banpresto, BANDAI SPIRITS. A listing that names none is worth a photo inspection before it ships.

Frequently Asked Questions
Where can I buy Jujutsu Kaisen merch that is actually from Japan?
The Japanese resale market — Mercari, Yahoo! Auctions and Suruga-ya — carries far more Jujutsu Kaisen goods than any export store, including every Ichiban Kuji prize and prize-line figure. None of those platforms ship overseas directly, so you need a proxy service to buy and forward on your behalf. OneMall covers all three.
What is the cheapest way to buy Jujutsu Kaisen figures?
Buy prize-line and Ichiban Kuji figures on Japanese resale rather than retail scale figures, batch several into one order, and consolidate before shipping. Prize figures start near ¥2,000; the service fee on a Mercari order is ¥200–¥300, and the first six orders consolidate free.
Is Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3 finished?
Part 1 of the Culling Game arc ran for 12 episodes from 9 January to 27 March 2026 on MBS and TBS, and reached Netflix worldwide on 23 July 2026. Part 2 was announced immediately after the finale but has no broadcast date as of August 2026[1].
Can I buy Ichiban Kuji tickets from outside Japan?
No. Ichiban Kuji is sold in physical Japanese shops only[2]. What you can buy is the prize itself, second-hand, from a Japanese seller who drew it — which is usually cheaper than a ticket anyway, because you skip the lottery and pick the prize you want.
How much does it cost to ship a figure from Japan?
It depends on box size more than weight. Figure packaging is bulky, and international carriers bill the greater of actual and volumetric weight, so a light figure in a large box is charged as if it were heavier. Consolidating several items into one parcel is what actually brings the per-item cost down — typically by 30–50%.
