One message, one origami crane.
For each peace message received online, the team folds one crane with that feeling in mind.
Each crane carries the corresponding message number.
Anyone who receives a crane can search the number on this site and read the message connected to it.

One message, one origami crane.

Step 1

Write a peace message

Each submitted message receives a number starting from No.001.

Step 2

It becomes a numbered crane

The same number is written on the origami crane, connecting the crane to its message.

Step 3

Carry the message to Monterrey

We aim to share these cranes with supporters from around the world while respecting local rules.

OUR STORY

Connecting memories to our greatest stage.

On June 14, 2002, Japan defeated Tunisia 2-0 and reached the FIFA World Cup knockout stage for the first time.

After the 2002 final, around 2.7 million origami cranes folded by children descended into the sky above Yokohama International Stadium.

On June 21, 2026, Japan and Tunisia meet again on the World Cup stage. That match is the 1000th FIFA World Cup match.

We carry that memory forward as a yell of peace and respect, folding 1,000 cranes toward our greatest scene.

Gratitude Crane

I am grateful to God for giving me an environment where I can fully enjoy sports, and for this body that allows me to use it to the fullest. I hope the world becomes a peaceful place where people do not fight against one another, but instead grow together, support one another, and live with God at the center. Today as well, I will keep striving for peace and love, and live with joy and gratitude.
