To celebrate the 50th anniversary of Hakusensha’s beloved shojo manga magazine LaLa, a special collaboration promotional video has been released, bringing together two iconic characters: Suoh Tamaki from Ouran High School Host Club (桜蘭高校ホスト部) by Hatori Bisco, voiced by Miyano Mamoru, and Usui Takumi from Maid Sama! (会長はメイド様！) by Fujiwara Hiro, voiced by Okamoto Nobuhiko — both reprising their roles from the original anime series.
Titled 「須王環(CV:宮野真守)×碓氷拓海(CV:岡本信彦) コラボPV【LaLa50周年】」, the video features the two characters in a lively, charming exchange that introduces the various campaigns and projects planned for LaLa’s milestone anniversary. Fans can look forward to hearing the beloved duo banter in their signature styles.
Special In-Store Advertisements
Alongside the PV, special advertisements are being displayed at Animate stores across Japan. At Animate Ikebukuro Main Store in Tokyo, the PV is being screened on a 165-inch signage display from August 7 to 13, 2026, while staircase advertisements on floors 2–3 run through August 16, 2026. Visitors can also view the newly drawn 50th-anniversary illustration used on the commemorative issue covers.
At Animate Umeda in Osaka, the “Stage Han” area features a birthday cake-shaped advertisement decorated with characters from LaLa titles including Ouran High School Host Club, Natsume’s Book of Friends, and Snow White with the Red Hair, on display through August 24, 2026.
