To commemorate the world exclusive distribution of the Netflix original live-action drama series “ONE PIECE”, the admission-free event “SHIBUYA GRAND LINE STORE” is now being held at the flagship Hot Toys store “Toy Sapiens”.
In addition to exhibiting costumes actually used in the filming of the drama, related goods will be on sale, and a photo spot will be set up.
The store is inspired by the world of the live-action version of “ONE PIECE”, including life-size panels of the Straw Hat gang. The well-known poster of the wanted posters with their faces on it can be changed to any letter of the alphabet in the name section! You can recreate your own wanted posters, which are displayed alongside those of Luffy, Buggy, and other pirates in the film.
We sell a wide variety of original goods, from figurines to affordable stationery.
Costumes actually used in the filming of the Netflix series “One Piece” (from left) Gold Roger, Morgan, Buggy, Juracule Mihawk, Aaron, and Arvida. Costumes other than Morgan’s will be exhibited for the first time in Japan.

December sees the arrival of a number of Christmas breads. The Snowman with his cute smiling face is a sweet loaf with two different flavours: pudding cream and chocolate cream. It is a heartwarming treat with flavours that both children and adults can enjoy.
Also back this year is the popular Japanese Stollen, which was a big hit last year. This is a special cake that can only be tasted at Kimuraya, using Japanese-inspired ingredients such as persimmons, figs and koshi-an (sweet bean paste). Please take this opportunity to try Kimuraya’s limited edition Christmas bread.

The Hiroshima Museum of Art is hosting the exhibition “ZIPANGU: Contemporary Artists Who Defined the Heisei Era” (November 2, 2024 – December 22, 2024). This showcase brings together works by some of the most prominent figures in Japan’s contemporary art scene, including Yayoi Kusama, Takashi Murakami, Makoto Aida, Yoshitomo Nara, Chiharu Shiota, Izumi Kato, Akira Yamaguchi, and Miwa Komatsu. The exhibition has already garnered significant attention, exceeding 10,000 visitors.
HYAKKEI covered the dialogue between contemporary artist Takashi Murakami and Sueo Mizuma, the curator of this exhibition, held at the RIHGA Royal Hotel Hiroshima. We also conducted an exclusive interview with Mr. Mizuma.
The discussions centered on the aspirations behind the ZIPANGU exhibition and offered forward-looking insights, not only into Japan’s art world but also into the rediscovery of value within Japanese culture by its people.
