Butterfly mascot Grayzerman to appear at Nojima T.League 2025-26 playoffs

Butterfly (Tamasu Co., Ltd.) and the Nojima T.League announced on 25 February 2026 that the company’s branded mascot/performer, described in promotional materials as the “table tennis hero” Grayzerman, will attend the T.League 2025–2026 playoffs, though the supplied announcement text truncates mid-sentence and does not specify which playoff dates, venues, or sessions the mascot will appear at.

Butterfly’s earlier corporate statement from June 4, 2025 confirms the company’s broader role in the 2025–2026 season and includes a full quote from Takako Osawa, President and Managing Director of Tamasu Co., Ltd.: "We are delighted to provide Butterfly brand uniforms and other items for all men's and women's teams in the T.League for the 2025-2026 season. It is the 6th season for men and the 4th season for women. In the previous season (2024-2025), we were able to engage in a variety of exciting initiatives together with the T.League, that were well received by many fans. For instance, Butterfly's table tennis hero “Glayzerman” appeared at the opening match, and official matches were held at the Butterfly Arena in Yanai City, Yamaguchi Prefecture. We will continue working on bringing everyone the excitement of both the T.League and the sport of table tennis."

The June 4, 2025 release thus serves two functions in the record: it confirms Butterfly will supply "Butterfly brand uniforms and other items" to all men's and women's teams for 2025–2026, and it documents prior-season fan engagement in 2024–2025, including a mascot appearance at the opening match and official matches staged at the Butterfly Arena in Yanai City, Yamaguchi Prefecture.

The supplied Butterfly materials also include a list of uniform design asset lines and filenames that appear to correspond to each T.League team. The press release excerpt lists the following verbatim lines: Uniforms Design [...] T.T Saitamatt-saitama_2025-2026.jpg; Kinoshita Meister Tokyokm-tokyo_2025-2026.jpg; Kanazawa Portkanazawa-port_2025-2026.jpg; Shizuoka Jadeshizuoka-jade_2025-2026.jpg; Okayama Rivetsokayama-rivets_2025-2026.jpg; Ryukyu Asteedaryukyu-asteeda_2025-2026.jpg; Kinoshita Abyell Kanagawaka-kanagawa_2025-2026.jpg; Top Otome PingPongs Nagoyatop-nagoya_2025-2026.jpg; Kyoto Kaguyalyzekyoto-kaguyalyze_2025-2026.jpg; Nippon Life Redelfnissay-redelf_2025-2026.jpg; Nippon Paint Malletsnphd-mallets_2025-2026.jpg; Kyushu Carinakyushu-carina_2025-2026.jpg.

A factual discrepancy appears in the record on the mascot’s romanized name: the 25 February 2026 announcement spells the character Grayzerman, while Butterfly’s June 4, 2025 quote from Takako Osawa spells the mascot "Glayzerman." The supplied materials do not indicate which romanization is official; the 25 February 2026 announcement itself cuts off at "Grayzerman will appear at the" and gives no further schedule or activity details.

Butterfly’s press materials also state a merchandise policy dated as of May 2025: Butterfly does not plan to sell T.League official merchandise such as uniforms, and directs buyers to the official T.League website for official merchandise. Given the truncated 25 February 2026 announcement and the name discrepancy, confirmation is required from Butterfly and Nojima T.League on the mascot’s official spelling, full playoff appearance schedule (dates, venues, and planned activities), high-resolution assets, and clarification of what "other items" Butterfly will supply to teams for the 2025–2026 season.
