What this is
A limited-run pop-up merchandise shop dedicated to the dark magical girl manga series *Gushing over Magical Girls*, running across multiple Gamers store locations in Japan simultaneously. The Nagoya store edition runs September 12–27, 2026, selling exclusive goods — can badges, acrylic cards, acrylic stands, and oversized acrylic stands — all featuring new school swimsuit illustrations of the main cast. Spend ¥2,000 or more on eligible products and you receive a randomly distributed bonus illustration card from a set of nine designs.
Who should go
Fans of *Gushing over Magical Girls* who want physical merchandise unavailable outside these pop-up windows. Collectors chasing the random bonus cards will want to budget accordingly, as designs cannot be selected.
Good to know
Entry to the pop-up area is free — you only pay for goods you purchase. The bonus illustration cards are randomly distributed and cannot be requested by design, so collectors targeting specific cards should budget for multiple purchases. Stock is limited and will not be replenished once sold out, so visiting early in the event window is advisable. If you cannot make it in person, the Gamers Online Shop runs a follow-up sale from September 28 to October 12 with the same bonus card system — useful for overseas or out-of-town fans. Payment methods at Gamers stores typically include major credit cards and IC cards, though cash is always a safe backup.
