After nearly four decades of its existence, Dragon Ball is finally getting a store entirely of its own. On November 14th, the Dragon Ball Store Tokyo will open its doors inside Tokyo Station’s Character Street. It marks the first official Dragon Ball store anywhere in the world.
The Dragon Ball Store in Tokyo is bringing Akira Toriyama’s legendary creation closer to fans
The shop’s visual theme captures the spirit of adventure from the series’ earliest days. Goku is riding the Flying Nimbus in the promotional art. While a life-sized statue inside the store shows the younger Goku on Shenron.
Inside, visitors will find merchandise and exclusive goods inspired by the hand-painted look of the original cel-style animation. You’ll also get to see replicas of key frames and posters highlighting the anime’s long history.
Among the main attractions is the store’s ‘History Series.’ It’s an exclusive line featuring art of classic characters such as Son Goku, Bulma, Oolong, Puer, and Yamcha. These will be available as pin badges and acrylic stands from opening day.
The Dragon Ball Store in Tokyo will also offer T-shirts, stickers, and even sweets packed inside cases modelled after the Four-Star Ball from the series. Depending on how much you buy, you can also walk away with limited stickers or shopping bags as novelty bonuses.
Are you excited?
To manage the expected crowd, entry to the store will be ticketed from November 14th to 17th. Reservations for entry open at 9:00 a.m. on November 1st, so if you’re planning to visit early, you’ll need to secure your spot in advance.
Located on the first floor of Tokyo Station Ichibangai, the Dragon Ball Store Tokyo will be a shopping spot. It’ll also act as a small museum of nostalgia for anyone who’s followed Goku’s journey from the original 1980s anime to the global phenomenon it is today.
