On the 11th, Orix Buffaloes unveiled the main visual for their annual and highly popular event, "Bs Orihime Day 2026." The top 10 players, chosen by the Orix fan vote under the theme of "naturalness," appear in simple, all-white styling—white shirts, white pants, and white sneakers—based on the visual concept of "natural." Fans can enjoy the unique aura and natural charm of each of the ten Orix players, depicted entirely in white.
The visuals will be released under the hashtag "#B_natural," and exclusive photos of each player will be released sequentially on the team's official social media accounts. You're sure to be charmed by the unpretentious expressions of each of the 11 players.
The event will be held during the three-game series against Nippon-Ham starting on July 18th and the three-game series against the Chiba Lotte Marines starting on July 24th (both Kyocera Dome Osaka). At the east entrance of the stadium, a photo spot will appear with visuals of the top 10 Orix Buffaloes players covering the entire wall. Banners and flags of each player will line the surrounding area, and the entire stadium will be immersed in the spirit of Orix Princess Day.
The vision screen will show special videos exclusive to Orihime Day. Those who purchase food on Orihime Day will receive real trading cards of the Orix The Buffaloes players. Additionally, for the three-game series against Nippon-Ham starting on July 18th and the game against Lotte on July 24th, a limited number of 10,000 "Bs Orihime Day 2026 Uniform Included Tickets" will be sold each day.

2nd place, Keita Nakagawa: "I was a little worried about whether it would suit me since it was an all-white outfit, something I don't usually wear, but it was a new challenge. It had a different feel from previous Orihime Day events, and it was a concept I personally liked."
4th place - Soichiro Yamazaki: "I wore a comfortable white shirt, and the photoshoot was done in a relaxed atmosphere. My hair was styled to look wet, so I think it gives off a slightly more mature impression. I hope people will enjoy seeing us in our natural state in 'natural'."
6th place -Ryo Ota "Unlike previous Orihime Day photo shoots, we were told to 'be natural, not just smile,' so I was able to approach it without feeling pressured. The white-based styling is refreshing, and I think we were able to show a new side of ourselves."
