Exciting New Products from Tanita in Collaboration with Golden Kamuy

On November 7, health-focused company Tanita, based in Itabashi, Tokyo, announced the launch of new products in collaboration with the popular anime _Golden Kamuy_. This collaboration features an audio body composition monitor and a series of pedometers, bringing the beloved characters of the show directly into the realm of health and fitness.

Product Overview

The collaboration includes a singular audio body composition monitor that provides navigation via the voices of four characters: Sugimoto, Tanigaki, Tsukishima, and Koitob. Additionally, there is a selection of 26 different pedometer designs featuring characters from the series. The audio body composition monitor is priced at ¥22,000 (including tax), while the pedometers are set at ¥3,520 (including tax). Players can reserve these items exclusively through the Tanita online shop starting today, with orders closing on December 5 at 1 PM. The anticipated shipping date is scheduled for late February 2026.

The anime _Golden Kamuy_, which aired its first episode in 2018, adapts the critically lauded manga by Noda Satoru, originally serialized from 2014 to 2022 in _Weekly Young Jump_. The series, which has surpassed a cumulative circulation of 30 million copies and has won multiple awards, including the Manga Taisho Award in 2016, is gearing up for its final chapter set to debut in January 2026. Recently, the theatrical release of the prequels, _Sapporo Beer Factory Chapter_ (Part 1 released on October 10 and Part 2 on October 31), has generated significant buzz among fans, prompting the creation of these new products.

Highlights of the Audio Body Composition Monitor - BC-203 Golden Kamuy Model

The innovative audio body composition monitor engages users by guiding them through the setup and function with voice prompts from their favorite characters. For instance, upon completing the initial registration, you might hear, “Initialization complete. I hope you measure every day!” voiced by Tsukishima. Additionally, celebratory messages are played on birthdays, enhancing the interaction. At power-up, users will hear, “I am the immortal Sugimoto!” while humorous remarks about body fat percentage can create a fun, relatable experience.

The aesthetic of the monitor features rich black tones with character illustrations that have been specially crafted for this initiative, alongside the Golden Kamuy title artistically integrated in gold and black. The monitor captures the essence of the show, ensuring that fans enjoy their health journey.

Features of the 3D Sensor Pedometer - FB-741 Golden Kamuy Model

The pedometer comes equipped with a 3D sensor, allowing users to track their steps accurately, whether it’s worn around the neck or kept in a pocket or bag. There are 26 unique designs available, showcasing characters such as Asirpa, Shiraishi, the Hijikata faction, and the Seventh Division. Each character is represented in a way that highlights their personality through distinct color schemes.

The Importance of Fun in Health

Tanita emphasizes that the key to maintaining a healthy lifestyle is making it enjoyable. The company is actively pursuing collaborations with various entertainment sectors to create health monitoring devices that resonate with users. Their aim is to enhance the interaction between fans and their products while making health and wellness accessible to a broader audience, including those less engaged with health initiatives.
