Shortly after the leak of Casio’s new GBX-100 and Surfrider collaboration watches, we have an exciting reveal of a fresh set of limited-edition G-Shock watches inspired by the anime series Haikyu!!, celebrating its 10th anniversary. This collaboration features two GA-B2100 models that are themed around rival teams “Karasuno” and “Nekoma,” with both watches showcasing the unique team colors and character elements linked to the show.
Karasuno Model Details
The Karasuno-themed watch displays a rich navy and orange color scheme that aligns perfectly with the team’s jerseys and the spirit of the court. On the watch strap, you can find Hinata’s iconic jersey number “10” on one end, along with a white “飛べ” (fly) kanji design positioned near the lugs.
Nekoma Model Features
On the other hand, the Nekoma edition adopts a striking red and black color theme, featuring Kenma’s jersey number “5” near the strap’s tip, along with the word “繋げ” (connect) elegantly inscribed on the case band. The strap also boasts a cat-themed checker pattern, which is a clear nod to their nickname, “The Cats.”
Both models include Bluetooth connectivity, Tough Solar charging, and world time functionality—common features for the GA-B2100 series. While there isn’t any new technology being introduced here, the attention to visual details is impressive. Casio will also be launching special merchandise alongside the watches, which will include Haikyu!!-themed straps, packaging, and character art inserts.
Availability and Pricing
Casio has yet to announce a release date or pricing details, but based on previous collaborations with anime like Dragon Ball and One Piece, these watches are expected to be in limited supply and will likely sell out quickly.
