Junji Ito Pop Up Store Returns for Halloween in Japan

From October 31 to November 20, 2024, a Junji Ito pop-up shop will appear at the Moriguchi branch of Keihan Department Store. These items are from Hakaba no Garou, and you can also purchase them via its online shop, as it delivers internationally. [Thanks, PR Times!]

Here are the prices of all the items that’ll be at the Junji Ito pop-up shop:

• Acrylic chibi charms (5 variations): 770 JPY
• Bucket hat: 5830 JPY
• Can badges (blind box; 12 variations): 550 JPY
• Clear keychain pouch: 1320 JPY

• Fan: 5500 JPY
• Long-sleeved t-shirts: 7480 JPY
• Manga panel sticker (blind box, 15 variations): 495 JPY
• Reversible eye mask: 1320 JPY
• Shampoo: 1540 JPY
• Short-sleeved t-shirts: 5500 JPY (3 variations)

Most of these items all derive from Tomie, featuring her design or panels from her series. You can also get goods featuring characters like Gallon or The Beautiful Boy at the Crossroads.

Here are some images of the items:

While none of the items feature this series specifically, Uzumaki started in late September 2024. This is an anime adaptation of Uzumaki, which was a very well-received and popular manga from Junji Ito. It follows the Japanese town of Kurouzu-cho, which befalls a spiral-related curse that drives the residents insane and kills them. Despite fan anticipation from the first episode, many have commented on the poor quality of the later ones.
