The Detective Is Already Dead Season 2 gets a wedding swimsuit lottery
The KADOKAWA-run Kujibikido campaign launches on 22 October with four heroine designs, six prize tiers and a ¥770 entry price.
The Detective Is Already Dead Season 2 (探偵はもう、死んでいる。Season2) is getting a new online lottery built around freshly drawn wedding-inspired swimwear artwork. The KADOKAWA-operated Kujibikido campaign opens on 22 October at noon in Japan, giving fans a set of character goods rather than a new anime announcement.12
The headline attraction is a set of four large fabric posters, each featuring one of the series’ heroines. The campaign also includes clear posters, acrylic stand figures, mini acrylic stand figures with ball chains, mini shikishi boards and can badges. The artwork puts Siesta, Nagisa Natsunagi, Yui Saikawa and Charlotte Arisaka Anderson in coordinated outfits that mix bridal styling with swimwear, giving the lottery a clear visual identity instead of recycling generic Season 2 key art.12
How the online lottery works
Each draw costs ¥770, before delivery. The sales window runs from 22 October at 12:00 until 19 November at 11:59, with the official Kujibikido page listing delivery for roughly late February to late March 2027. The service says orders can also be combined up to 20 items under one delivery charge, subject to its terms and the campaign’s availability.2
The prize structure is split into six main tiers. S prizes are the selectable 160cm-by-80cm fabric posters. A prizes are A3 clear posters, while B prizes are acrylic stand figures. C prizes turn the characters into smaller portable acrylic figures with ball chains. D prizes are mini shikishi boards and E prizes are larger collectible can badges. Within each tier, the result is random unless the S prize allows the winner to choose a character.12
There are two extra promotions alongside the standard draws. Following and reposting a qualifying post from the official Kujibikido X account can enter fans into a giveaway for a complete set of four B-prize acrylic stands. Buyers who choose the 10-draw set receive one randomly selected bromide as an additional bonus. The official campaign page warns that artwork, stock, sales periods and overseas availability can change, so readers outside Japan should check the service’s regional information before ordering.2
The campaign follows Season 2’s October 2026 broadcast launch, but it is primarily a merchandise release. The official anime’s third promotional video remains a useful introduction to the show’s characters and tone, while the lottery’s KADOKAWA artwork is specifically tied to this promotion.3 That distinction matters: the visual is not evidence of a new episode, cast announcement or story development, but it is a new piece of licensed character art with a defined sales period.
Our opinion
This is the sort of anime merchandise announcement that benefits from concrete details. The 22 October start date, ¥770 price and four-character S-prize choice tell fans what they need to know immediately, while the unusually large fabric posters give the campaign a stronger hook than a routine badge or acrylic-stand drop. The main catch is timing: the advertised 2027 delivery window means this is a collection purchase, not an impulse item that arrives alongside the current season. Readers should use the official Kujibikido page for the final stock, shipping and regional-sales details before spending money.
