Namba is about to turn into Knight X territory. The tour of “Knight X – Knight X –,” a 2.5D visual-kei utaite group (singers who built their following posting covers online), opens at Namba Hatch in Osaka on Friday, November 6 and Saturday, November 7, 2026. To mark the occasion, a limited-time area collaboration is rolling out at Namba Parks and around Nankai Namba Station.
Knight X is a group that relies on “voice” and visuals — songs, situation voice acting and more — mostly through video platforms. On Wednesday, October 28, 2026 they released “Tier1,” their first album with the new lineup, and the album-release tour “Knight X – Knight X – Live Tour 2026-2027 ‘Tier1’” begins in Osaka before heading to Tokyo and Aichi. The events are designed so fans can enjoy the tour atmosphere around Namba not only on show days but before and after, too.
Station ads from November 2, in-mall events from November 3
The first thing to start is the advertising around town. From Monday, November 2 to Sunday, November 8, ads using Knight X visuals appear on five advertising media around Nankai Namba Station and Namba Parks. On the main platform of Nankai Namba Station, 42 different flags carry messages from the members and different visuals, and digital signage near Namba Parks shows the collab visuals as well. Note that you need a train ticket or platform ticket to see the flags on the main platform, and fans are asked not to bother station staff with inquiries.
Four things to enjoy at Namba Parks
From Tuesday, November 3 (a national holiday) to Monday, November 9, Namba Parks is the main stage.
- Special message video: On the large LED screen at “e-Stadium Namba Main Store” on the first floor, the members present an original video of about five minutes, talking mainly about the Osaka shows and the collab and introducing what is on during the period.
- Limited goods pop-up: The same shop sells official goods plus five collab-only items: a ring notebook, ballpoint pen, cushion, drawstring pouch and mug. With every official or limited item you buy, you get one random postcard from a set of 15 designs based on song thumbnails.
- Life-size photo panels: Four types are set up inside the mall, giving fans a photo spot to pose with the members.
- Coaster at Japanese tea café “Seiyuan”: On the first floor, Seiyuan gives one original coaster featuring the members with every bill that includes a drink.
If you want to shop and take photos before the show, check the hours. Seiyuan is open 11:00–17:30 (last order 16:30 for dining in, 17:00 for takeout), earlier than the other venues. Shortened hours and temporary closures are possible, so check its official Instagram before you go. All perks end when supplies run out.
A social media giveaway, too
From Monday, November 2 to Monday, November 9, the official X account of e-Stadium also runs the “#なんばで騎士X” giveaway. Follow the account, like and repost the campaign post, then post your memories of Knight X with the hashtag, and you could win, by lottery, one of the life-size photo panels actually used in the collab, signed by the members. See the official X post for how to enter and the terms.
