The Elusive Samurai Pop-Up Shop Dates Set for August 15
The seasonal four-part illustration set is the shop's main draw, and the lottery with exclusive prizes adds a venue-only incentive that is typical of Marui pop-up events, but the specific seasonal theme is a fresh angle for the series' merchandise.

A pop-up shop for the TV anime The Elusive Samurai will run at Yurakucho Marui from August 15 to August 23, 2026, and at Namba Marui from August 28 to September 6, 2026. The event centers on a newly drawn illustration of Hojo Tokiyuki in seasonal attire, with four versions themed around spring, summer, autumn, and winter: spring with cherry blossoms, a cool summer, autumn with leaves and a Japanese umbrella, and winter with snow. The shop will sell goods using these illustrations, including acrylic stands, trading washi-style can badges, omamori-style charms, polaroid shot collections, mini hanging scrolls, and bath towels. A lottery will be held at the venue, with entry for purchases of 3,000 yen or more, and an extra entry for Epos Card users. Prizes include a big acrylic stand and mini cards. The Yurakucho venue is on the 8th floor, Space 6, and will be closed on August 19. Business hours are 11:00 to 19:00 at both locations.
The pop-up shop is part of a series of Marui events for anime titles in August 2026, but this one is distinct for its seasonal motif. The newly drawn Tokiyuki appears in four outfits, each tied to a season, and the goods lineup includes items like chirimen-style lunch pouches and mini hanging scrolls that lean into traditional Japanese aesthetics, matching the series' historical setting.
Prices range from 500 yen for a single polaroid shot to 5,500 yen for a bath towel. The lottery system requires a 3,000 yen purchase for one draw, with an Epos Card adding a second draw per transaction. Prizes are split into A, B, and C tiers, with the top prize being a large acrylic stand. The Namba Marui run extends into early September, giving fans in the Kansai region a later window to attend.
