Jujutsu Kaisen 5th Anniversary Merch: What to Collect First

Quick answer

Start with the JUJUTSU KAISEN 5th Anniversary Memorable ED Kento Nanami Acrylic Stand if you want a low-cost display piece tied to the season 1 ending visuals. Add the Satoru Gojo Blindfold Tee if you will actually wear the anniversary artwork, and treat the Desktop Calendar as a functional extra rather than a core collectible. All three are estimated to ship in October 2026, so choose based on how you will use the item, not on release timing.

Why the Memorable ED artwork is the thread that ties this collection together

The 5th Anniversary items in this drop all pull from the same source: the season 1 ending credit visuals. That matters because it gives you a consistent look across formats. A Nanami acrylic stand, a Gojo tee, and a desktop calendar from this set will read as one collection on a shelf or in photos rather than three unrelated purchases.

The practical consequence is that you can buy in any order and still end up with a matching set. You do not need to chase a specific piece first to make the others look right. If you already own Jujutsu Kaisen merch from other arcs or collaborations, this collection is visually distinct enough to sit beside it without clashing.

How to decide between a display piece and wearable merch

Display pieces and apparel fail in different ways. An acrylic stand fails if you have no surface for it or if you dislike dusting small items. A tee fails if the size is wrong or if you never wear graphic shirts. Before you add anything to a cart, pick the format you will actually maintain.

The Nanami stand is approximately 6" × 5" with a base around 2.4", so it needs a real desk or shelf footprint. The Gojo tee is 100% cotton in a classic fit, which means it behaves like a standard cotton shirt: it can shrink slightly depending on how you wash it, and the fit is not oversized. If you are between sizes or prefer a looser look, size up rather than expecting a relaxed cut.

What the calendar adds that the other two do not

The Desktop Calendar is the only item in this anniversary set that does something on a daily basis. It displays the Memorable ED artwork and gives you a reason to keep it visible, which is useful if you want the collection in your line of sight without dedicating shelf space to a stand.

The tradeoff is that a calendar is date-bound. The catalog notes it is a calendar, and calendars become less useful once their year passes. If you want a keepsake that stays relevant indefinitely, the acrylic stand or the tee holds up better over time. If you want something you will look at every day during the year, the calendar earns its place.

A simple order for building the anniversary collection

Buy the Nanami acrylic stand first if you are new to Jujutsu Kaisen collectibles. It is the lowest-commitment way to own the anniversary artwork, and it does not depend on a size fitting you. Buy the Gojo tee first if you already know your size in classic-fit cotton and you wear anime apparel regularly. Buy the calendar first only if you specifically want a desk item you will use daily.

If you are buying for someone else, the tee is the riskiest gift because of sizing, and the stand is the safest because it has no fit variable. The calendar sits in the middle: easy to give, but only useful to someone who keeps a desk calendar.

Decision rules for this anniversary drop

If you are new to Jujutsu Kaisen collectibles: Start with the Nanami acrylic stand. It has no fit variable and no date limit, so it is the easiest piece to keep long term. Buy this first if you want one anniversary item and no follow-up decisions.
If you wear anime apparel regularly: Choose the Gojo blindfold tee, but confirm your classic-fit cotton size first. If you are between sizes or want a looser look, size up. Skip the tee if you rarely wear graphic shirts, regardless of how much you like the artwork.
If you want the collection visible every day: Add the desktop calendar, but accept that its value is tied to the calendar year. Pair it with a stand if you want a permanent piece alongside it. Treat the calendar as a functional extra, not the anchor of the collection.
If you are buying a gift: The acrylic stand is the safest choice because it has no size or date dependency. The tee requires knowing the recipient's size, and the calendar requires knowing they use a desk calendar. When in doubt, gift the stand.

Anniversary items at a glance

JUJUTSU KAISEN 5th Anniversary Memorable ED Kento Nanami Acrylic Stand: Acrylic stand inspired by the season 1 ending credit visuals, with figure dimensions of approximately 6" × 5" and a base of approximately 2.4". The size is large enough to read as a centerpiece on a desk but still fits a narrow shelf, so measure your display space before buying.
JUJUTSU KAISEN 5th Anniversary Memorable ED Satoru Gojo Blindfold Tee: 100% cotton tee in a classic fit, based on the anniversary artwork, with size as the available option. Classic fit is not oversized, so the size you choose determines whether this becomes a regular wear piece or sits in a drawer.
JUJUTSU KAISEN 5th Anniversary Memorable ED Desktop Calendar: Desktop calendar featuring the Memorable ED artwork, intended for display at home or in the office. It is the only item in the set with a daily function, but its usefulness is tied to the calendar period rather than being a permanent display piece.
My Hero Academia 10th Anniversary Hawks Acrylic Stand: My Hero Academia 10th Anniversary Hawks acrylic stand with a main piece of approximately 4.5" H × 2.2" W and an additional piece of approximately 1.4" H × 1.3" W. If you collect across franchises, this is a smaller-format stand than the Nanami piece, so it works as a companion display rather than a matching-scale set.
