What this is
Brand-new illustrations by artist nocori — themed around an 'Amusement Park Date' — make their debut at this limited-run pop-up shop tied to the anime/manga series The Handsome Salesman at Work Is My Ideal Owner. Running first in Tokyo at MEDICOS SHOP Shibuya (August 15–27), then in Osaka at CAFE EPIC TALE (September 17–October 4), the shop sells exclusive merchandise featuring the new artwork. Tokyo gets life-size character panels and a lottery for them at ¥5,000+ spend thresholds; Osaka gets collaboration takeout drinks instead.
Who should go
Fans of the series who want first access to the nocori illustrations before any online release. Collectors chasing the random bonus mini cards (one per ¥1,000 spent) or the lottery-entry panels in Tokyo will find the most value here.
Good to know
Merchandise can be purchased in-store during the event period, with after-event online sales planned via MEDICOS ONLINE SHOP (medicos-e.com) — bonus mini cards will also be available online while supplies last, useful if you miss the physical event. MEDICOS SHOP Shibuya is a specialist anime goods retailer in the Shibuya area; the shop is compact, so expect queues on busy days, especially during the lottery admission on August 15. Bring cash as a backup — smaller specialty shops in Japan often prefer cash or have card minimums, though IC cards are not typically accepted for retail purchases. OSMO stamps exclusive to this event are available for purchase separately. Foreign visitors should note that any lottery panel prizes won in Tokyo may require a Japanese shipping address or in-store collection arrangement.
