Chiikawa is an intensely popular franchise in East Asia, and it’s recently gone international with English-dubbed episodes available for free on YouTube. It originated as comics on Twitter. However, it has since become a juggernaut of a franchise, with plenty of tie-in goods, merchandise, and a profitable movie.

The ANA and Chiikawa collaboration will begin on October 23, 2026.
