On September 8, Workman held the “WORKMAN Fall/Winter 2026 New Product Launch Event” at the Tokyo International Forum. In early November, the company plans to release Workman-exclusive merchandise based on the popular TV anime series “The Apothecary’s Tale,” which has gained a following both in Japan and overseas.
The item that stands out the most is Workman’s first-ever “Medication Notebook Case” (4 designs available, 1,500 yen each). The collection includes a wine red and green design inspired by the protagonist, Mao Mao; a navy design inspired by Lord Jin; and a beige design inspired by the kitten Mao Mao, among others.
While the exterior features a simple design, the interior fabric is adorned with colorful motifs of each character, allowing you to subtly show your support for your favorite character during everyday outings and while traveling.
It’s also packed with practical features, including plenty of mesh pockets and card slots. It can be used in a variety of situations—not just for a medication record book, but also as a pouch for bankbooks and debit cards, or as a case for storing airline tickets and passports.
We also plan to release a wallet-style shoulder bag made from matching printed fabric (4 designs total, 2,500 yen each), a handkerchief and pouch set featuring stylish colorful tassels (5 designs total, 980 yen each), and printed short-sleeve T-shirts with a simple front design (5 designs total, 980 yen each).
