"Love this Donguri location. It is definitely one of the larger locations however it is quite busy so bring your patience so you can browse all of the amazing merch!! If you are a fan of Spirited Away, don’t forget to take a picture with No Face (located at the back left hand side of the store)."

"Photo opportunities! Cute to snap photos of. They have a range of items, if you are visiting from the states they have more items than Lunchbox! They also carry a variety of character items you normally can’t find, like Ronaldo Moon! It’s not exactly expensive but a little more however most character stores are like that."
Brittaney Vargas
"Little shop, two photo spots, free, the queues aren't that bad :) The merchandise is a bit pricey tho, and due to the shops size a bit limited, but the atmosphere and the life-size figures are truly lovely!"
