Kagomedia has confirmed production of Kinoko no Yama Wireless Earphones Pro after its Makuake campaign reached 1,000 orders in 48 minutes, PHILE WEB reported on November 2, citing the company’s announcement. These are advance orders for a future production run, not earbuds sitting in a warehouse ready to ship.
Snackgirls react
Red I’d want to flip open that little box-style case on my desk just to see the mushrooms inside. I’d leave it out as a desk ornament, too.
Nea I’d like to try a favorite game soundtrack on these unusual little earbuds. If I ordered a pair, I could use the wait for the planned 2027 delivery to choose an album for the first listen.
The ¥31,800 tier has two limits
On Japan’s Makuake, the super-early tier is listed at ¥31,800, including tax and shipping. It covers the first 2,000 units and closes on November 15, 2026, at 11:59 a.m. JST, or earlier if that allocation is filled. The opening 24-hour discount has already ended.
Makuake adds a separate system usage fee of 2.2%, excluding tax, at checkout, so ¥31,800 is not the final payment total. Check the selected reward’s availability and final charge before paying.
March or April 2027, depending on the order tier
Delivery for the ¥31,800 tier is planned by the end of March 2027. The other currently listed tiers are scheduled for delivery by the end of April 2027. Delays are possible, and the project generally does not accept change-of-mind cancellations.
The campaign runs from November 1 through December 13, 2026, with production based on the quantity ordered during that window. The 1,000-unit target was the minimum needed to proceed, not a cap on the whole production run. Sales after the campaign remain undecided.
The mushroom shape stays, with new foam tips
Sold by Kagomedia under license from Meiji and manufactured by Weatherly Japan, the Pro keeps the mushroom-chocolate shape and snack-box-style charging case. The company says the new model adds memory-foam ear tips and revisions to the sound tuning and touch sensor.
The translation feature requires a compatible smartphone and app, with support listed for 74 languages and 70 dialects or accents. Despite their appearance, these earbuds are not food: keep them away from small children and pets because of the risk of swallowing or choking.
