Welcome back, Nushi Tsuri!
Release — Oct. 8, 2026
What is Boku to Tsuri Nikki?
This is a title developed by Toybox — yes that’s right, THE Toybox by Yasuhiro Wada — and published in Japan by Imagineer.
Fish and record your catches in this Edo-period tale of man versus nature. Not much is shown in the trailer, but the gameplay will have you connecting with your natural senses to seek out fish habitats and discover new finds! The story seems to suggest you’ll be restoring the world’s color through fishing?
What does that have anything to do with Bokujou Monogatari? Why are you posting this?
Well, I’ll tell you why! I am SOOOOOO excited to see the next spiritual successor to Victor Interactive’s Kawa no Nushi Tsuri series!
Bokumono wasn’t the only title under that company. Nushi Tsuri is like a sister in many ways! Previous Bokumono titles allowed you to trade with Nushi Tsuri cartridges to fill out collection encyclopedias. There’s also several nods in each title back and forth at each other.
And what’s more: the Story of Seasons primary artist — Igusa Matsuyama — reprises his role as lead character designer for yet another Toybox project. The working relationship with Igusa and Wada has been a partnership forged over 30 years. This is sure to be a treat!
I guess you’d like some more pictures, wouldn’t you!? Take a look below!
The resemblance… it’s so exciting to see! 😊
Welcome back, Ponta…it’s like you were never gone! 🥹
