Viz Media Announces the Iconic Shonen Jump Shop Will Open In LA on Saturday

Big news coming in from Viz Media, Los Angeles is preparing for an Ultimate Manga Merchandise takeover! For the first time, the Shonen Jump Shop is making the leap from Japan to the United States. It is bringing its coveted, Japan-only drops straight to Los Angeles beginning on September 6th.

From September 6 to October 5, fans can shop Japan’s hottest gear including rare apparel, collectibles, and accessories from iconic franchises such as One Piece, Sakamoto Days, Blue Box, Hunter x Hunter, Dragon Ball, Naruto, Bleach, Gintama, Haikyu!!, My Hero Academia, Jujutsu Kaisen, The New Prince of Tennis, and Kaiju No. 8. Plus, limited-edition WEEKLY SHONEN JUMP logo tees and tote bags—snatch them fast, they’re exclusive to the pop-up.

What to Expect?

It marks the first time that Shueisha’s iconic Shonen Jump Shop is officially touching down in the U.S. for the very first time, taking over Los Angeles with a one-month-only pop-up. Straight out of Japan, the shop is loaded with rare, officially licensed drops. Items include tees, collectibles, and accessories repping the heaviest hitters in manga: 

The pop-up will also release a limited-run WEEKLY SHONEN JUMP logo tee and tote bag, exclusive to LA for now. Once they’re gone, they’re gone.

Important Note from the Writer: With an iconic shop coming to the United States, the imported goods being offered will most likely be impacted by Trump Tariffs. The new measures, which went into effect in July and August 2025, place a 15% tariff on many Japanese imports and ended the “$800 de minimis” exemption for low-value shipments. Recently, the Trump administration suspended a tariff exemption for low-cost goods worldwide that was seen as a loophole hurting U.S. manufacturers, while its country-specific tariffs include a 15 percent rate for imports from Japan.  Tariffs are passed onto the consumer in the form of higher taxes that hurt not only the economy, but also harm small and local businesses.
