Jujutsu Kaisen Cafe 2026 5th Anniversary Opens in Tokyo, Nagoya, and Osaka

A limited-time theme cafe celebrating the fifth anniversary of the TV anime adaptation of Gege Akutami's "Jujutsu Kaisen" will open in three Japanese cities. The "Jujutsu Kaisen Cafe 2026 5th Anniversary" runs from July 9, 2026, at venues in Tokyo and Nagoya, and from July 23 in Osaka. The cafe's party concept features food and desserts inspired by characters from the anime's second season "Hidden Inventory / Premature Death" (Satoru Gojo, Suguru Geto, Shoko Ieiri), the film "Jujutsu Kaisen 0: The Movie" (Yuta Okkotsu, Maki Zenin, Toge Inumaki, Panda), and the third season "Shibuya Incident" (Yuji Itadori, Megumi Fushiguro, Nobara Kugisaki). A revival menu item, the "Prison Realm Tiramisu" from the 2023 cafe, returns. The cafe also sells exclusive merchandise including can badges, acrylic keychains, postcard sets, clear files, glasses, and special bags. Advance reservations cost 660 yen per person and include a random ticket-style card. Drink orders come with a random paper coaster. An online shop opens July 9. The Tokyo location runs through September 27, Nagoya through August 23, and Osaka through September 6.

The cafe is operated by LTR, a subsidiary of CL Holdings, with cooperation from animation studio MAPPA. The venue chain is BOX cafe&space, with locations at Lumine Est Shinjuku in Tokyo, Global Gate Nagoya in Aichi, and KITTE Osaka in Umeda. Reservation details go live on June 26 at noon, with general first-come-first-served reservations opening at 6 p.m. that same day.

The menu items are named after character techniques. From "Hidden Inventory / Premature Death," Gojo's "Hollow Technique: Purple Fruit Punch" is a fizzy soda fruit punch, Geto's "Tropical Shaved Ice with Cursed Spirit Orb Jelly" includes mango and pineapple, and Ieiri's "Reverse Cursed Technique Green Taco Rice" comes with colorful vegetables. From "Jujutsu Kaisen 0," Okkotsu's "Promised Ring Bulgogi Bowl" is topped with purple sauce and salted cabbage seasoned with sesame oil, Zenin's "Physical Junk Burger" is a fried chicken burger with tartar sauce and cheese fries, Inumaki's "Cursed Speech User's Tuna Mayo Burger" adapts the classic onigiri filling into a burger with cheese cream sauce and salmon, and Panda's "French Toast ~ I am Panda ~" uses black French toast and white ice cream. From "Shibuya Incident," Itadori's "One Hit! Black Flash Donut Sandwich" features pink grapefruit and cassis sorbet, Fushiguro's "Rabbit Escape! Fried Chicken Dog" is topped with popcorn, and Kugisaki's "Berry and Rose Hairpin Waffle" uses a hammer stencil to represent driving in a nail.

Drink orders come with a random paper coaster from 13 types, with a 1-in-10 chance of a rare variant per period. Online shop purchases of 3,300 yen or more include a random clear card from three types. The merchandise lineup includes mini character acrylic keychains, acrylic stands, sticker sets, clear pouches, and "mochidoru" plush figures for Gojo (student version), Geto (student version), Fushiguro Toji, Itadori, Fushiguro Megumi, Kugisaki, and Gojo. Past cafe visual clear files from 2022 through 2025 are also available. Special bags cost 5,500 yen each per arc.
