It was done in a rather interesting way, so I&#8217;m sharing it with everyone too. Once again, please support us in 2026 as well. Both Inazuma Eleven and Fantasy Life i will have free major updates in January and February. We&#8217;ll also do an Inadai [stream] on January 13. Look forward to it!&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><\/blockquote>\n<aside class=\"object object-tweet\"><!-- cache: oembed\/https:\/\/twitter.com\/akihirohino\/status\/2009624540683669911 @ 2026-01-10T08:41:01+00:00 --><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\"><p><span lang=\"ja\" dir=\"ltr\">\u30ec\u30d9\u30eb\u30d5\u30a1\u30a4\u30d6\u793e\u5185\u5411\u3051\u306e2025\u5e74\u306e\u5e74\u672b\u4ed5\u4e8b\u7d0d\u3081\u6642\u306e\u6620\u50cf\u3067\u3059\u3002\u306a\u304b\u306a\u304b\u9762\u767d\u3044\u51fa\u6765\u3060\u3063\u305f\u306e\u3067\u7686\u69d8\u306b\u3082\u5171\u6709\u3057\u307e\u3059\u3002\u6539\u3081\u307e\u3057\u3066\u30012026\u5e74\u3082\u3088\u308d\u3057\u304f\u304a\u9858\u3044\u3044\u305f\u3057\u307e\u3059\u30021\u6708\u30682\u6708\u306f\u30a4\u30ca\u30ba\u30de\u30a4\u30ec\u30d6\u30f3\u3068\u30d5\u30a1\u30f3\u30b8\u30fc\u30e9\u30a4\u30d5\u3001\u5171\u306b\u7121\u6599\u5927\u578b\u66f4\u65b0\u304c\u3042\u308a\u307e\u3059\u30021\u670813\u65e5\u306b\u306f\u30a4\u30ca\u30c0\u30a4\u3082\u3084\u308a\u307e\u3059\u3002\u304a\u697d\u3057\u307f\u306b\uff01 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/7ncaIzRadX\">pic.twitter.com\/7ncaIzRadX<\/a><\/span>\u2014 \u65e5\u91ce\u6643\u535a (@AkihiroHino) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/AkihiroHino\/status\/2009624540683669911?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">January 9, 2026<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/aside>\n<p>As you can see above, this news was included alongside a special video featuring Level-5&#8217;s characters.
