Major Updates in 'Chiikawa Pocket'

The smartphone application 'Chiikawa Pocket' (often referred to as 'Chiipoke'), developed and operated by Applibot, has announced major updates to its home function. Starting from August 26, 2025, players can enjoy a new home experience along with the 'Fruit Event', complete with new outfits for characters. In addition, a short video showcasing the updated home features will be released, and a commemorative campaign will be held to celebrate these changes.

About 'Chiikawa Pocket'

Based on the popular webcomic by illustrator Nagano, 'Chiikawa Pocket' invites players into the endearing world of Chiikawa and friends. The concept, 'Always Together with Chiikawa', allows users to immerse themselves in playful activities inspired by the comic’s charm. Since its global launch on March 27, 2025, the game has been made available in 43 countries and regions, including Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Macau, Thailand, and the USA, offering a delightful experience for fans around the world.

Home Function Updates

The latest updates to the home function include:

1. 'Record Book'

The 'Record Book' feature tracks the number of times players engage with home events featuring characters. By accumulating views, players can earn mission rewards that enhance their 'Strength' stats in the 'Zukan' (previously known as the item catalog). The home events will refresh in time, and notifications will appear in the 'Record Book' icon when updates occur.

2. 'Footprint Bonus'

With the 'Footprint Bonus', players can earn rewards whenever characters visit their home. Collect these bonuses at regular intervals to enjoy more fun and excitement.

3. 'Discover Home Events'

This feature highlights new home events that players have never encountered. A button labeled 'Discovered!' will pop up when such an event is found, directing players to the relevant area on their screen.

4. Additional Adjustments

There are several modifications, such as allowing multiple placements of the same home item in different locations and new '+' buttons near each home item for detailed views.

Attention Points

Players should note that there are two types of home events: those that occur with certain home items and those that don't rely on them. Details can be tracked using the 'Record Book'. Additionally, the notification settings for updates can be configured through the 'Record Book' icon on the home screen.

New Fruit Event and Costume Addition

Along with the home function updates, the 'Fruit Event' will kick off. Players can progress through an event pass to earn a fruit-themed Kurimanju character costume and a fruity home item, the 'Fruit Punch Pool.' Logging in during the event will also reward players with special items such as the 'Fruit Cake Square.'

Event Period

The 'Fruit Event' runs from August 26, 2025 at 3:00 PM to September 9, 2025 at 2:59 PM.
