Marimocraft Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Koto-ku, Tokyo) is launching a limited-time bookstore pop-up shop called "Initial D POP UP SHOP - Drive Through All 11,000 Stores!!" featuring exclusive merchandise inspired by the classic manga Initial D.
The event begins in February 2026 at two locations: Mirai-ya Shoten Hamamatsu Ichinoshoten and Kinokuniya Bookstore Grand Front Osaka. Future touring locations are planned throughout Japan. Visitors can look forward to browsing and purchasing merchandise in person at their nearest venue.
Featured Merchandise
The collection features items that blend seamlessly into everyday life for Initial D fans, with a tasteful yet distinctive presence.
The A4 Clear File and Acrylic Panel Keychain both come in blind packaging across 7 designs, each showcasing iconic scenes etched into fans' memories. The thrill of discovering which design you receive adds an extra layer of excitement.
The Stainless Tumbler features a simple design modeled after protagonist Fujiwara Takumi's AE86 (Hachiroku) delivery car, emblazoned with the text "Fujiwara Tofu Shop (For Private Use)." Additional items include the Chinpin Towel and Anteric Ballpoint Pen - thoughtful goods that bring a sense of energy just by having them nearby.
Customers who purchase ¥2,200 or more of Initial D merchandise will receive a sticker as a bonus gift (randomly selected, one per transaction).
