DIESEL x FINAL FANTASY XIV in Shibuya is the only one already open, and it runs to November 8. The other ten open between October 18 and November 20, in the order below.
“DIESEL x FINAL FANTASY XIV BRAVE” shows new collage work by Kosuke Kawamura built from the game’s artwork. It runs at DIESEL ART GALLERY, on the basement floor of the cocoti building in Shibuya, from October 2 to November 8, 2026, from 11:30am to 8pm. Entry is free, and the gallery closes on irregular days.
The collab T-shirt is ¥16,500 and the hoodie ¥27,500, and the gallery also sells posters, acrylic key charms and clear files from the show. All of those are sold online as well, so the reason to go is the work itself, which you can see in person at the gallery.
THANKS MONSTIEZ in MIYASHITA PARK is the BABYMONSTER pop-up store at Park in Park, on the first floor of the South building, from October 18 to November 1, 2026.
You need a booking only on October 18, 24 and 25, between 11:10am and 1pm. Those slots go first come, first served, and booking needs a free MONSTIEZ (JP) ID. One booking admits you and one companion. On every other day you walk in, though numbered tickets can be handed out without notice.
The store opens from 11am to 9pm, with last entry at 8:30pm. On October 31 and November 1 it closes at 6pm, with last entry at 5:30pm.
The new items here are a T-shirt, a big tote bag, a mini charm set and a trading card. One random trading card comes with every ¥6,000 spent in a single checkout, while supplies last.
Daiso’s character Daizo has a collab cafe with a hot spring theme, “Daizo Cafe, Happy Pokapoka Paradise”, at RAKU CAFE Ikebukuro No. 1 from October 22 to November 10, 2026. The cafe is on the second floor of the Otomate Building in Higashi-Ikebukuro and opens from 10am to 8pm. The same collaboration also runs in Shinsaibashi, Osaka.
Booking is recommended, not required, and goes through TableCheck. Walk-ins are seated if a slot is free. Daizo appears in person on October 24 and 25, those sessions need a booking, and the cafe closes at 6:15pm on both days.
Bring your reservation number, the full name on the booking and an original passport or other photo ID. Copies and photos of ID are refused. Sessions last 75 minutes, and each person orders at least ¥1,100 of food or drinks, not counting takeout.
Cream omurice is ¥1,980, the apple pie and Mont Blanc plate ¥1,870 and drinks ¥880, and each collab menu item comes with one of seven random coasters while supplies last. The goods, from a bath-ticket card at ¥440 to a towel at ¥2,180, are also sold online, so the coasters and the menu are what you only get by going.

The fourth Chiikawa Pocket pop-up store comes to Tokyo at 0% IKEBUKURO, on the sixth floor of the Ikebukuro PARCO main building, from October 24 to November 23, 2026, from 11am to 9pm. The goods dress the characters as bento boxes and shopkeepers.
On October 24 and 25 you need a timed entry ticket from the LINE app, one per person, with your phone’s location setting turned on. Tickets for slots up to 1:30pm open at 7pm the evening before, later ones an hour ahead, and you show photo ID with your name at the door. A ticket does not guarantee the goods you want are still in stock.
From October 26 you walk in. The bento mascot is also sold on the official online store, so check it first if that is the only item you want.

The Silent Witch 5th Anniversary POP UP SHOP marks five years of Matsuri Isora’s light novel series with new illustrations by Nanna Fujimi, notes on how they were made and a short story Isora wrote for the display. It runs on the second floor of Shinjuku Marui Annex from October 24 to November 8, 2026. Weekday hours are 11am to 7pm and weekends and holidays 10:30am to 7pm, which differ from the building’s own hours. Entry is free.
On October 24 and 25, entry slots from 10:40am up to the 2:30pm slot are booked in advance, first come, first served, through the Marui no Anime Event account on LINE. Booking opened on October 16 at 6pm and stays open until 10 minutes before each slot, one booking per person per day. Show the digital ticket itself at the door, because screenshots are refused. From 3pm on those two days, and from opening on October 26, you walk in, though numbered tickets can be handed out when it is busy. While entry is limited, each person pays once and cannot go back in.
Acrylic stands are ¥1,870 each and the trading glitter can badges ¥550 a pack, with a per-checkout limit on the badges. Every ¥3,000 of event goods on one receipt earns a random mini bromide out of 13, and spending ¥5,000 or more adds a booklet with a short story by Isora, while supplies last. The goods go on general order online after the event, and Marui says the gifts may also turn up later, so the display is the part you only see by going.

The Earth Defense Force POP UP SHOP takes over the event area of Bandai Namco Cross Store Tokyo, on the third floor of the World Import Mart Building in Sunshine City, from October 24 to November 23, 2026. The event area opens from 10am to 8pm, which differs from the rest of the building.
There is no booking or lottery. The store may limit entry or hand out numbered tickets when it is crowded, and those tickets cannot be lent or passed on. No per-person purchase limit is published, though stock is limited.
Every ¥2,000 on one receipt earns a random EDF HISTORY hologram sticker, with ten designs to November 6 and nine more from November 7, while supplies last. Print T-shirts in 23 D3PUBLISHER designs cost ¥5,500, are ordered by 7pm and take about an hour. On October 24 from 10am to 5pm anyone can try Earth Defense Force 6.2 on a single demo unit, and the game tournament on November 7 needs a receipt for ¥2,000 spent during the run.

The Magical Girl Witch Trials x GiGO POP UP STORE sells goods from the game fans shorten to manosaba, with the cast drawn in gothic sailor outfits. It runs at GiGO Akihabara Building 5 from October 24 to November 8, 2026, from 10am to 11:30pm, and those hours can change on the day. After Tokyo the store moves on to Osaka, Fukuoka and Sendai.
On October 24 and 25, entry from 10am to 1pm is by advance lottery in the GiGO app. Enter by October 22 at 11:59pm for October 24, with results around 10am on October 23, and by October 23 at 11:59pm for October 25, with results around 10am on October 24. At other times staff may hand out numbered tickets or manage entry, and the store announces walk-in entry on its X account.
Each checkout is limited to three boxes of a trading item, or the same number of singles, and three of any other item. Every ¥2,000 on one receipt earns a random card sleeve out of eight, while supplies last. Acrylic stands are ¥1,650 and the embroidered tote bag ¥4,400.
COCOLLABO takes online pre-orders from October 26 at noon to December 4 at 1pm, for delivery in mid to late February 2027. Those orders come without the card sleeve, and the ¥200 omikuji fortune slips, all of them drawn as the worst possible luck, are sold only at the store.

Hello Kitty’s Lounge runs at Space O, on the third basement floor of the Omotesando Hills main building, from October 28 to November 8, 2026, from 11am to 8pm, with last entry at 7:30pm. You can make your own background music and your own scrunchie.
October 28 opens at 4pm and admits reservation holders only. On other days reservations, made through Hello Kitty’s official LINE account, go in first, and walk-ins are admitted only when there is space. You cannot go in only to shop, and the shop is cashless.
Sanrio’s page lists no admission price. Purchases come with a shopping bag and a sticker given out only here, one of each per checkout while supplies last. The birthday collection goes on sale here a day early, then in Sanrio stores from October 29.
Haruichi Furudate Haikyu!! Exhibition: Challengers runs at Mori Arts Center Gallery, on the 52nd floor of Roppongi Hills Mori Tower, from October 30, 2026 to January 11, 2027, with no closing days. It opens from 10am to 8pm, with last entry 30 minutes before closing.
General admission is ¥2,200, ¥1,400 for high school students and ¥900 for elementary and junior high school students. A ticket with goods is ¥4,400, in limited numbers. Each ticket holder aged 18 or over can bring one preschool child aged 6 or under free. Every ticket holder collects a random set of two player cards after entering, and free child guests do not receive them.
Entry is by 30-minute slot, and you cannot change or cancel a ticket. Tickets are sold on e+ and, during first-come sales, at FamilyMart multi-copy machines, never at the venue. The organizer’s English page says e+ needs a Japanese mobile number to sign up, so plan around that if you are booking from abroad. Tickets for December 1 onward go on sale on November 14 at 10am.
Exchange your ticket at the third-floor counter during your slot before going up, and bring student ID if you bought a student ticket. The random goods are ordered online with a code handed out at the exhibition. Ordering needs a Japanese mobile number, ships only within Japan and may be canceled if sent to a hotel, so buy what you want at the venue shop.

The NARUTO Shippuden pop-up shop runs from October 30 to November 12, 2026 at Tokyo Character Street, on the basement floor of Tokyo Station First Avenue, at the stall under the K stairs. It opens from 10am to 8:30pm and closes at 6pm on the last day.
Entry is free with no booking, though numbered tickets may be handed out on the day. Cash, cards and e-money are all accepted. The goods use new illustrations, and buying at the stall means seeing them before you pay. Every ¥2,200 spent on related goods, including at least one new item, earns one random illustration sheet out of five. The street’s online store sells the same goods with the same gift.
