City Hunter Pop-Up Store Launches in Tokyo, Shibuya and Aichi
The "CITY HUNTER POP UP STORE – Midnight Rendezvous –" opens in Japan in August 2026. The pop‑up runs from 1 August at Hands Shibuya (10:00‑21:00) and at Seibunkan Bookstore, Shin‑Toyota (9:00‑23:00), and from 7 August to 23 August at Futako‑Tamagawa Tsutaya Electronics (10:00‑20:00). Admission is free.
The event celebrates the series' 40th anniversary and its 50 million copies sold. It offers new merchandise such as multi‑case bags, clear‑material pouches, original T‑shirts, zip‑up parkas, sunglasses, and assorted accessories featuring the characters Ryo Saeba and Kaori Makimura. Purchases of ¥5,000 or more receive a collectible card, and shoppers can enter a draw for a postcard signed by creator Kenichi Koike.
The pop‑up follows the 2024 Japanese Netflix live‑action adaptation of "City Hunter," which renewed interest in the franchise and prompted the launch of the merchandise lineup.
