The "Chiramune Fukui Collab" has been held annually since 2022 as a collaboration project between the series and its setting of Fukui Prefecture, becoming a summer tradition where fans make pilgrimages to the work's "sacred sites." The 2026 edition will mark the first time newly drawn anime illustrations are used across the collaboration, with a digital stamp rally and various other initiatives currently in preparation. Details on the new illustrations and event lineup will be announced in follow-up reports.
Episodes 1 through 13 of "Chitose Is in the Ramune Bottle" (the first cour) are currently streaming on various platforms, with the second cour scheduled to begin broadcast within 2026. The series is based on the light novel of the same name written by Hiromu and published under Shogakukan's Gagaga Bunko imprint, with original character designs by raemz and animation production by feel. The opening theme is "Liar" by Kucci (Sony Music Labels), and the ending theme is "Kagerou" by CIDERGIRL (CIDER RECORDS).
