Train stations throughout Japan are often known for hosting a variety of lively events and shops, especially revolving around seasons, franchises, or events. This time is no different, with a pop-up shop focused around 1997’s classic anime Revolutionary Girl Utena coming to Ikebukuro Station!
Revolutionary Girl Utena is celebrating its 25th anniversary this year, giving loyal fans of the decades-old series a reason to stop by the new shop. Nestled in Ikebukuro Station’s underground passageway, the small shop will feature a wide variety of original character goods from the series.
Keychains, clear files, acrylic standees, buttons, and a special travel tumbler are all products that will be available for sale at the pop-up event. In addition, canvas art and prints featuring exclusive Revolutionary Girl Utena art will also be available.
The shop itself also matches the elegant, pastel atmosphere of the show with its decorations, and the products feature art and styling that’s both identical to the show as well as cuter chibi variants.
Attendees who spend 2,200 yen or more will also receive an exclusive collectible postcard featuring art from the event. There are three different kinds given at random, so fans can try to collect them all!
The event runs until October 25th, and can be found in Ikebukuro Station’s underground area by looking for the Revolutionary Girl Utena signs. You can also order the merchandise and see more here.
