I still remember the excitement of picking up the last copy of Weekly Shonen Jump during Japan’s Golden Week at a local convenience store. Priced at just 300¥ (about S$2.75), the issue came with stickers and the latest chapters from my favorite series like Jujutsu Kaisen and One Piece. It felt like discovering a treasure.

Now, fans in Singapore are in for a similar thrill, as a major manga event is about to unfold. From 10 May to 31 August 2025, the first-ever Shonen Jump Pop-Up Store in Southeast Asia will open its doors at Jewel Changi Airport (Units #04-235/236). This limited-time retail experience brings the world of Shonen Jump to life, offering fans the opportunity to browse and shop exclusive merchandise inspired by some of the most iconic manga titles.

The store is officially supported by Shonen Jump publisher Shueisha and is the result of a collaboration between Tokyo-based entertainment company REMOW and Singapore-based manga and anime platform Omnisekai. REMOW CEO Akira Ishii stated that the company is “truly honored” to introduce the pop-up store in Singapore at a time when global interest in Japanese manga and anime continues to grow. It truly shows the enduring influence of manga and the powerful connection it fosters among fans worldwide. Just visit an anime and cosplay convention to see!

The pop-up store will feature a rotating selection of collectibles, apparel, and accessories tied to fan-favorite series such as Dragon Ball, Naruto, Bleach, Demon Slayer, One Piece, and my current favorite: Sakamoto Days.

Among the highlights are limited-edition T-shirts, tote bags, and novelty items that are expected to appeal to both local fans and international visitors. This is the first time that Shueisha has brought a physical version of its Jump Characters Store to this region.

So, whether you are a long-time reader of Weekly Shonen Jump or a newcomer to its rich universe, this pop-up store offers a unique opportunity to engage with beloved series in an in-person setting.
