I recently arrived to Japan for my study abroad. I have been to so many Mcdonald’s for the shaka shaka fries and still no luck. It has now become my mission to find the shaka shaka fries. If you know a location that still has them, please let me know!!!

Food and drinks in Japan are sometimes only available for a limited time.
Good luck with that. That promo started a month ago, if it’s not already sold out nationwide it will be shortly.
Lotteria has furupote which is pretty much the same thing! Not sure which flavor you are looking for but please check it out
Any McDonald’s should have them. They’re a staple item.
You order a Shaka Chiki and fries, use the flavour sachet and paper bag you get with that.
That’s about as good as you’ll get unfortunately.
I believe the Shaka Fries are a seasonal item.
Edit to add:
I just opened the McDonalds app
The Fries are available on mine.
I haven’t been to McDonald’s for a couple months.
Had no idea Shaka Fries were back
Maybe it’s your local store not offering them yet?
FWIW Wendys/First Kitchen has something similar available permanently: [https://wendys-firstkitchen.co.jp/menu/?menucat=6](https://wendys-firstkitchen.co.jp/menu/?menucat=6)
and if butter-shoyu is your thing, Denny’s: [https://www.dennys.jp/menu/side/](https://www.dennys.jp/menu/side/)
