What this is
A limited two-week merchandise pop-up celebrating the nostalgic 1990s TV anime 'Nangoku Shonen Papuwa-kun', with new goods produced using the series' distinctive Graph Art illustrations as well as items featuring anime scene captures. eeo Store Ikebukuro is running both a physical in-store sale and a parallel online shop, with in-store pickup reservations also available. Fans who can't make it to Ikebukuro can order through the eeo Store online platform.
Who should go
Fans of the original Papuwa-kun anime, particularly those who grew up watching it in the 1990s. Collectors hunting nostalgia-driven anime merchandise will find this more rewarding than a general anime goods store.
