Jump Shop | Japan's Iconic Pop Culture Store!

Hello! 🤩

As we were walking in Parco, Dotonbori, I did not realize that we were heading to a place where every anime fan would faint in happiness, haha! (Like me) 😆

Can we just appreciate this poster? 🥲

The store was inside of the Parco Building so we had to take the escalators going up. The whole building will close at 8 pm, and still, the place was packed.

We were greeted with a big screen showing the epic battles of our favorite anime characters and some intro/outro songs. I believe this is Vinland Saga on the screen. I wonder if there was an event or something limited-edition that people lined up for.

Luffy~ 😍 People lined up to take a picture of Luffy, of course, I was one of them. 😆 I patiently stood on the corner until people were out of the frame to take this picture (For the blog! 😆)

The shop is decorated with art from the manga and the anime. Here is a collage art from Demon Slayer. This shop felt like I was in the realm of their world. Road to become a Hashira, yes? 😆

Stickers, pouches, and phone cases. The stickers seemed very high-quality as I inspected in closer. The chibi versions were so cute! 😍 I would pick the sleeping Zenitsu, haha.

Dreamin' On was playing in my head as I scanned for One Piece merch. 😍 I think Egghead arc has one of the best wardrobes, hehe. Customers were allowed to touch the item, but not allowed to open until paid. So I can just check the item with a cover, but it was fine! 😁

Would you eat a real devil fruit? 😁 Cutie devil fruit plushies~ They are soft and velvety to the touch. And woah, the extra effort of putting a treasure chest, nice!

---

Aside from stickers, decos, and plushies, they also had some shirts and bags. I pulled on a shirt from the rack and it felt soft and cottony. I know that this shirt is a quality one that you can use for every day.

Another wall of stickers, this time from Jujutsu Kaisen. Probably they have a big chunk of sales from stickers that's why they have it in every corner, haha. 😆

Haikyuu~ Tobe fly high!

Immediately I recognized the anime from its color scheme of bright orange and black. Cute chibi versions of the team and rivals. I just giggled to see some quirky expressions. It's perfect to stick it to my laptop or water bottle, or just keep it as a collection. 😁

Spy X Family merch. Anya Forger stickers were adorable. 🥲💖 Chubby cheeks, sparkly eyes, and a face full of determination. 😆 That iconic grin of hers really stands out, haha. I crouched down to see more of the merch- the tote bags, pins, and pouches.

---

As we approached the cashier to check out the items, I saw a real measurement wall of One Piece characters. The straw hat's heights were on the wall, feels like stepping into their world, haha. It was funny how Chopper was so tiny~ 😆 Luffy was average, and I thought he was a little taller. Sanji and Zoro were pretty tall! Same to Robin. Nami is all right, her body alone is crazy. Frankie and Brook were impressively tall, not humanly possible.

I got the chance to compare my height to every character and took a picture for reference. 😁 So awesome to see each's height in one place.

---

Time to say goodbye to Jump Shop and I felt like I left a piece of my heart. 🥲 It was always my dream to find a store that is part of my childhood (Should we call this healing my inner child? 😆) Cheesy as it sounds, it was an overflowing happiness. I was so happy to take home some souvenirs and be reminded of my first-ever visit to the store. It was not just about the merchandise but it was an anime experience. Hoping that I will visit again~ maybe a different branch this time. 😄💖

A bonus picture Sanji fan art by me! 😊
