About Hoppe-chan
Celebrating its 15th anniversary, Hoppe-chan is gaining renewed attention as an "Icon of Reiwa Diversity." Born in 2010, Hoppe-chan is an original character inspired by sweet decorations.
With a unique cream-like squeezed form, each character has a different expression, becoming explosively popular among elementary and junior high school girls as "their own character."
Today, Hoppe-chan is being reevaluated as a character symbolizing "Reiwa diversity" and is gaining support from Generation Z as a nostalgic character representing the dawn of the SNS era.
As part of the 15th anniversary project (celebrating on May 5, 2026), a TV anime broadcast has been confirmed starting January 2026.
