Fueling the Hype for Season 3
This sweet collaboration perfectly aligns with the massive excitement surrounding the remake of Rumiko Takahashi’s timeless masterpiece. Originally serialized in Weekly Shonen Sunday from 1987 to 1996, the beloved series returned with a stunning new anime adaptation by MAPPA in October 2024. Featuring the return of the legendary original voice cast—including Kappei Yamaguchi as Ranma, Megumi Hayashibara as female Ranma, and Noriko Hidaka as Akane—the anime has captured the hearts of both old and new fans alike.
With Season 3 set to premiere on October 3, 2026, these Fujiya treats are the perfect way for fans in Japan to gear up for the next chapter of chaotic martial arts romance. If you happen to be visiting Japan this October, make sure to stop by a Fujiya store and grab these limited-edition treats before they vanish!
