- PREMICO Rurouni Kenshin 25th Anniversary Official Watch
- Official product partnership, not an in-work appearance. PREMICO's manga-anniversary watch places Kenshin's silhouette among cherry blossoms; its hands cross at 4:07 to suggest his cheek scar. Orders opened December 4, 2020 at ¥29,800 before tax, with late-December shipping scheduled and an edition of 2,500 numbered pieces. The license marks the manga's 25th serialization anniversary, not the 1996 anime. (PREMICO; Imperial Enterprise announcement)
