Snackgirls react
Kirari: I want to see the Friends illustrations up close, then find the acrylic keyholder design that catches my eye.
Nea: Hisui no Tsuchi’s connection to the stage production has me curious. I’d like to learn more about the new Friend’s role.
A first look at game concept illustrations
Visitors can see previously unpublished Kemono Friends 3 concept illustrations at the shop.
A new Friend joins the stage-linked goods
The merchandise includes an acrylic keyholder catalog featuring Hisui no Tsuchi, a new Friend from the stage production Kemono Friends × Shiritsu Ebisu Chugaku. Ayaka Yasumoto plays the character in the production, scheduled for December 4–6 at Shinagawa Prince Hotel Stellar Ball.
When and where to visit the shop
The shop runs October 16–25, 2026, at the eighth-floor event space in Shinjuku Marui Men. Hours are 11:00 a.m.–7:00 p.m. The December stage performances are a separate event.
Opening-day entry is a lottery, not a queue
On October 16, entry tickets will be handed out at the first-floor store entrance from 10:30 to 10:35 a.m. Entry order is chosen by lottery, not arrival time. Numbers will be announced around 10:55 a.m. on the Shinjuku Marui Anime Event official X account and at the eighth-floor shop entrance; the first entry is expected around 11:10 a.m. A ticket does not guarantee admission if capacity is exceeded. From October 17, visitors can head directly to the eighth floor after opening, though crowd controls or tickets may still be used.
