Bandai Launches Premium Silver Jewellery Inspired by the Anime Reborn!

Bandai’s Lifestyle Division has announced the launch of a premium jewellery collection inspired by the anime Reborn!, featuring silver accessories modelled after the “New Vongola Rings” seen later in the series. This release leverages the enduring popularity of the franchise while responding to a growing market demand for high-quality, wearable anime merchandise that seamlessly blends fandom with contemporary fashion.

The collection is available for pre-order starting at 12:00 PM on Friday, 4 April 2025!  Each ring is crafted from Silver925, a material commonly used in fine jewellery, offering fans an authentic and durable accessory that goes beyond standard character merchandise.

These rings are designed to reflect the “New Vongola Rings” worn by Tsunayoshi Sawada and the other members of the Vongola Family in the anime. They’ve been produced with close attention to detail, even replicating the engraved designs and coloured stones that make the rings so distinct.

Each ring is made of Silver925, a popular material used in fine jewellery. To give the rings added depth and character, a traditional oxidised (or kusubashi) finish has been applied. This technique, which brings out contrast and texture, is completed by hand, giving every ring a slightly unique finish.

In total, there are seven ring designs—one for each of the Vongola Guardians: Sky, Storm, Rain, Lightning, Cloud, Sun, and Mist. The Sky Ring (representing Tsuna) is available in sizes 11 to 25, while the other six Guardian rings are offered in sizes 9 to 25, all in odd-numbered increments. The range of sizes ensures a good fit for a wide variety of wearers, whether they’re looking for a fashion piece or a collector’s item.

This collection exemplifies the intersection between character merchandise and practical fashion. While clearly designed with fans in mind, the rings have a clean, modern design that makes them suitable for everyday wear. They’re discreet enough to pair with casual or semi-formal outfits, while still acting as a subtle nod to the anime world.

In addition to the rings themselves, each design comes with a complementary necklace chain, giving buyers the flexibility to wear them either as rings or pendants. The rings feature a combination of materials, including epoxy resin and coloured glass, adding a touch of vibrancy without compromising the sophisticated look.

At ¥22,000, these are not mass-market novelty items, but rather high-end accessories aimed at older fans who are willing to invest in well-made, stylish merchandise that celebrates their favourite series. Given their quality and craftsmanship, the price point feels appropriate for what’s being offered.

Availability and Pre-order Details

The pre-order period runs from 4 April to 24 April 2025, with delivery scheduled for August. Fans are encouraged to act early, as quantities are limited and it’s possible that stock will sell out before the pre-order window closes. All orders are made through Bandai’s “Bancolle!” website, which specialises in fashion items and accessories inspired by popular anime, manga, and game franchises.

Bancolle! has built a strong reputation over the years for bridging the gap between character goods and contemporary design. Their goal is to produce items that can be enjoyed not just at conventions or fan events, but as part of everyday life. 

A Timely Release for a Timeless Series

While Katekyo Hitman Reborn! originally aired from 2006 to 2010, its impact has endured thanks to its memorable characters, unique power system, and compelling blend of action and comedy. This latest merchandise release is a clear sign of the series’ lasting popularity and the continued affection fans have for Tsuna and his guardians.

It also aligns with a broader trend in anime merchandising, where companies are increasingly moving away from novelty items and instead focusing on premium goods that hold long-term value. The New Vongola Rings serve as both a tribute to the series and a reflection of how far anime-inspired fashion has come in recent years.
