Seibu Shibuya Store Introduces an Array of New Year’s Osechi Celebrations

Starting October 3, Seibu Shibuya will begin accepting pre-orders for its highly anticipated New Year’s osechi selections. With January 2026 set to feature an extended holiday period, the store has developed a diverse range of osechi offerings designed around the theme "Abeloved Smile and the Joy of Gathering." These offerings allow families to select options that reflect their preferences.

In response to the emerging trend of 'oshi-katsu'—celebrating beloved characters—Seibu Shibuya will present an exciting array of character-themed osechi. Notably, items will include a unique character osechi set inspired by popular figures and even feature a New Year’s ramen option, which offers a modern twist on traditional New Year soba.

In addition to the character-themed offerings, customers can indulge in luxurious 'ryotei' (traditional Japanese restaurant) style osechi that will be available exclusively from the department store. Seibu Shibuya is committed to providing customers with not only gourmet experiences but also value for money with its new "value osechi" options, ensuring that everyone can enjoy a delicious New Year’s feast without breaking the bank.

For those looking to secure their delicious meals early, Seibu Shibuya is continuing its popular free shipping campaign for early orders, which runs from October 3 until October 31.

Highlights of Osechi Options

One of the standout offerings includes a special collaboration for the 55th anniversary of the popular "Kamen Rider" series. The Kamen Rider osechi comes in an original design tiered box and features a range of carefully curated dishes inspired by the beloved characters.

Another remarkable option entails a dual-layered dish featuring both Western and Japanese flavors. Developed under the supervision of renowned food creator Chisato Maruyama, this osechi includes a Western-style platter perfect for pairing with drinks, along with a traditional Japanese platter designed to enhance flavors that pair well with sake. As a unique addition, the set comes with "ocha ramen", a dish that creatively intermingles the comforting taste of matcha with chicken-based broth.

There's also an innovative collaboration that brings together the culinary talents of four distinguished chefs in a single dish. This collaborative creation, featuring remarkable flavors from various cuisines, is not only a visual delight but promises an exquisite dining experience.

For those who prefer value, the "Delicious Three-layered Osechi 'Banquet'" offers an impressive variety of 66 dishes, blending Japanese, Western, and Chinese cuisines, all while ensuring affordability at just 23,220 yen.

As inflation impacts consumer choices, Seibu Shibuya focuses on providing osechi options that are not just visually appealing but packed with flavors that cater to diverse preferences, making them ideal for festive gatherings. Every item available for pre-order can be frozen and enjoyed later, ensuring the essence of New Year celebrations is retained even as schedules get busy.
