The beloved magical girl anime, Mermaid Melody Pichi Pichi Pitch, is making waves once again—this time with an exclusive 20th Anniversary Ani-Art lottery that fans in Japan (and collectors worldwide) won’t want to miss. Kicking off on Sunday, 1st June 2025, the campaign is hosted by Arma Bianca through their dedicated online lottery platform, DRAW!DRAW! – a hub for anime-themed lucky draws offering a variety of exclusive merchandise.

The result is a fresh, vibrant take on the classic characters we all know and love, rendered in the signature Ani-Art style that brings a colourful, stylised touch to nostalgic favourites.
Unlike traditional online shopping, DRAW!DRAW! operates on a lottery-style mechanic. For 770 yen per ticket (tax included), participants have a chance to win a randomly selected item from the exclusive 20th Anniversary merchandise lineup. This system has gained popularity among anime fans for adding a touch of excitement and luck to the buying experience, especially when rare and limited-edition items are involved.
The prize lineup for this draw includes a variety of items:
A Prize: Full Graphic T-Shirts (3 designs)
B Prize: BIG Can Badges (4 designs)
C Prize: Mouse Pads (4 designs)
D Prize: Holographic Can Badges (6 designs)
E Prize: Die-Cut Stickers (6 designs)
Each item captures the charm of Pichi Pichi Pitch, with sparkling designs and thoughtful details that reflect the show’s oceanic and idol-themed motifs. From the shimmer of the holographic badges to the bold colours of the T-shirts, these items are sure to be coveted additions to any fan’s collection.
A Bit About Pichi Pichi Pitch
First airing in 2003, Mermaid Melody Pichi Pichi Pitch is a musical fantasy anime based on the manga by Michiko Yokote and Pink Hanamori. Following the journey of Lucia Nanami, a mermaid princess who must gather fellow mermaid princesses to protect the ocean, the series combines J-pop-inspired musical battles with magical girl transformations. It quickly earned a passionate fanbase both in Japan and internationally.
What sets this Ani-Art lottery apart is its newly drawn visuals, created especially for the 20th Anniversary. The characters are reimagined in elegant, pastel-toned palettes that pay homage to the original designs while adding a modern flair. These illustrations are exclusive to the campaign and cannot be found elsewhere.

Sales began on 1st June 2025 and will continue while supplies last, so fans are encouraged to participate early to avoid disappointment. The DRAW!DRAW! platform is designed to be accessible and user-friendly, allowing both seasoned collectors and first-timers to participate with ease.
