What this is
Marking a decade since The Promised Neverland first ran in Weekly Shonen Jump, Princess Cafe is hosting a themed collaboration pop-up across Tokyo and Osaka where fans can eat, drink, and shop inside a world built around Emma, Norman, and Ray. Every food and drink order comes with a random original coaster, and advance reservations unlock an exclusive ticket-style card — making the visit itself part of the collectible experience. The merchandise lineup is substantial, covering acrylic stands, trading cards, dioramas, stickers, T-shirts, and more, with a spend-based polaroid card bonus layered on top.
Who should go
Dedicated fans of The Promised Neverland, particularly collectors who enjoy the gacha-style merchandise and benefit systems common to Princess Cafe events. Casual anime fans with only passing familiarity with the series will find less to engage with here.
Good to know
Reservations are made via the official Princess Cafe website — check it directly for seat availability and booking windows, as slots often open weeks in advance and fill quickly for popular IP collaborations. Payment at the venue is typically cash-friendly; bring yen to be safe as not all pop-up cafe setups accept foreign credit cards reliably. The Tokyo venue is inside Sunshine City in Ikebukuro, a large indoor complex that is easy to navigate and air-conditioned — useful for a late-August visit. All benefits (coasters, polaroid cards, ticket-style cards) are distributed randomly, so plan your budget accordingly if you're chasing specific designs. The event runs simultaneously in both cities, so if you're travelling between Tokyo and Osaka during this period you could visit both locations.
