PFU Blue Cats
[PFU Blue Cats] Start selling “charity goods” on the official online store, with all proceeds donated to the “Reiwa 6 Noto Peninsula Earthquake” relief fund
～Believing in the “connecting” power of volleyball, “Let’s do our best Noto, Let’s do our best Ishikawa” to “connect” the circle of support～ ……
As a local professional sports team, the PFU Blue Cats, as part of the Noto Peninsula Earthquake recovery support in 2020, have been thinking deeply about the questions “What can we do?” and “What should we do?” with our players and staff. We have started the recovery support project “Ganbaro Noto, Ganbaro Ishikawa,” whose mission is to connect the circle of support for the people of Ishikawa Prefecture through volleyball.
As part of this project’s activities, we are producing and selling “charity goods” in which all proceeds will be donated to the affected areas as relief funds for the “2020 Noto Peninsula Earthquake.”We will sell them at match venues, etc., and spread the circle of support. I’ve come to connect you. Thank you very much for your warm support and cooperation.
We will also start selling “charity goods” on our official online store. In addition, Go Nagai, a manga artist from Wajima City, Ishikawa Prefecture, known for works such as “Devilman,” “Mazinger Z,” and “Cutie Honey,” agreed with the aims and activities of “Ganbaro Noto, Ganbaro Ishikawa.”
Therefore, in commemoration of the V League’s opening home game “Wajima Tournament” to be held on October 28th (Saturday) and 29th (Sunday), 2023, we have created a design celebrating the 50th anniversary of “Cutie Honey”. We will be selling “Cutie Honey x PFU Blue Cats Collaboration T-shirt” as “charity goods”. (All proceeds will be donated to the affected areas for the 2020 Noto Peninsula Earthquake)
In addition, we will also sell silicone wristbands and stickers with the “Ganbaro Noto, Ganbaro Ishikawa” design.
The lineup of “charity goods” will be added sequentially. Please look forward to future products.
We appreciate your continued support.
Go Nagai Message
We would like to express our deepest sympathies to everyone affected by the recent Noto Peninsula earthquake.
While there are still many people whose safety is unknown or who have been forced to evacuate, we hope that through the power of sports, we can brighten up everyone even just a little bit, so we are organizing the PFU Blue Cats’ Reiwa 6 Noto Peninsula Earthquake Recovery Support Project. We will also cooperate with “Let’s do our best in Noto” and “Let’s do our best in Ishikawa.”
We sincerely pray for everyone’s health and speedy recovery. Go Nagai Profile

Debuted in 1967 with “Meakashi Porikichi”.
Manga artists who influenced me are Osamu Tezuka, Sanpei Shirato, and Shotaro Ishinomori.
He is unique in that he boldly incorporates expressions of sex and violence into the world of boys’ manga, greatly influencing subsequent manga artists, and seamlessly transitioning from nonsensical gag manga to serious graphic novels. To this day, he continues to publish works in a wide range of genres. The only manga that has had serialization experience in all of the Weekly Shonen magazines: Weekly Shonen Jump, Weekly Shonen Magazine, Weekly Shonen Sunday, Weekly Shonen Champion, Weekly Bokura Magazine (closed), Weekly Shonen King (closed), and Weekly Shonen Takarajima (closed) It’s also home.
