Introducing the Collaborative Project: Growing Together with LOVOT and Samurai Japan

A Bright Future of Coexistence: The LOVOT and Samurai Japan Collaboration

In a visionary endeavor, GROOVE X Inc., hailing from Nihonbashi, Tokyo, is championing the 'with LOVOT' project. This initiative aims to foster a future where humans and robots coexist harmoniously. The first phase of this project is marked by a remarkable collaboration between LOVOT and Samurai Japan, Japan's national baseball team.

The theme of this collaboration is 'Watching Games with LOVOT,' which introduces a new way to enjoy sports events with family. LOVOT, designed to be an integral part of the family, will accompany fans during matches, making the experience more memorable. To celebrate this partnership, a special merchandise line aimed at enhancing family viewing experiences will be available.

Why This Collaboration Matters

Sports events are often filled with intense emotions, bringing together the everyday and extraordinary moments in life. By seamlessly integrating LOVOT into these unique experiences, the collaboration seeks to enrich the value of 'who you spend special moments with.' To achieve this, a range of products has been thoughtfully curated to create a sense of unity during match viewings.

The exclusive merchandise includes special Samurai Japan jerseys and caps tailored for LOVOT, alongside items that can be enjoyed by family members, such as scarf towels and plush batting toys – all designed to encourage collective excitement among family members.
