JoJo's To Be Continued arrow becomes a prize lamp in December
Bandai Spirits launches a light-up replica of the iconic end-of-episode bumper for Japanese arcade machines.
Bandai Spirits announced a lamp shaped like the JoJo's Bizarre Adventure arrow that appears at the end of every anime episode, right before the "To Be Continued" text. The product will start rolling out in December 2026 as an exclusive prize in Japanese arcade machines.
The piece measures about 25 centimeters wide and replicates the arrow that closes each episode of the anime adaptation of Hirohiko Araki's work. It comes in a single variant, with no alternate versions, and it isn't sold directly: it can only be obtained as a prize in game centers and similar establishments.
The design is faithful to the original: the arrow keeps its signature silhouette and adds lighting so it works as decoration. According to the announcement, it can be placed on a table or hung from a hook thanks to a slot on the back.
Lamp shaped like the To Be Continued arrow from JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, about 25 cm wide.An icon that goes beyond the manga
The "To Be Continued" arrow is one of the most recognizable visual elements of the anime. It appears at the end of every episode as a bumper that cuts the action at the moment of highest tension, accompanied by the English phrase. David Production kept it in every adapted part, from Phantom Blood to Stone Ocean, and it became a recurring meme inside and outside the community.
Bandai Spirits turning it into a physical object is no accident. The company has already released other prizes based on iconic elements from popular series, and in this case it's betting on a design that works as a decorative piece even without knowing the source material. The lighting gives it a practical use that goes beyond pure collecting.
Gradual rollout starting in December
Bandai Spirits confirmed that the lamp will arrive gradually to arcade machines across Japan starting in December 2026. The exact date may vary by store, and the company will update the list of participating locations on the official Banpresto Navi site.
Since it's an arcade prize, there is no fixed retail price. The cost depends on how many attempts each person needs to get it, as with the rest of the products in this line. The initial distribution is limited to Japan, with no mention of exports or international sales in the announcement.
