Summary
- Square Enix is selling copies of Roxas’s diary from Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days.
- Most of the pages have an entry from Roxas at the base of the page, written through the course of the game.
- They’re exclusive to Japan for now but will hopefully be available elsewhere soon.
There are a lot of games people are hoping we hear more about in 2025, and right up near the top of that list is Kingdom Hearts 4. It will have been three years since the next Kingdom Hearts game was revealed by April with nothing much else said about it since. At the very least, fans of the series have been spoiled with merch since then, and even if a release date reveal isn’t imminent, there’s more merch coming this summer.
Square Enix shared a first look at a Kingdom Hearts stationary collection on social media that will be released on June 28, 2025, although pre-orders for all of the items are already available through Square’s Japanese store. The stand out of the collection is a copy of Roxas’s Diary, not only because it’s a replica of the one he uses in the series, but because of the amount of detail that has been put into it.

Most Kingdom Hearts fans would have been happy enough with a diary that looks just like the one Roxas uses in 358/2 Days in which they could jot down their thoughts and feelings. This physical manifestation of the book goes a step beyond that, though. There are diary entries from Roxas throughout, printed at the base of select pages as if they were written during the game from which the diary has been pulled.

Read What He Had To Say Each Day Before Adding Your Own Entries
The entries take up roughly a quarter of the pages on which they’re included, giving you the rest of the page to fill with your entry, perhaps inspired by whatever it is Roxas has written that day. While the diary runs for 358 days, just like the game, there don’t appear to be entries from Roxas on every single page. There are time skips in the game, and the pages covering those time skips have been left blank.
Also included in Square’s new Kingdom Hearts stationery collection is a monogram pencil case, notebooks based on Disney-themed worlds you visit in the series, and even Kingdom Hearts masking tape. Everything in the collection is exclusively available through the Japanese Square Enix store for the time being, but hopefully it will be released in th US and elsewhere eventually. Square does tend to be pretty good at that and often adds items to its US store shortly after they appear on the Japanese one.
