Opening October 4th at 210 Lafayette Street in SoHo, the pop-up will be open from Tuesdays to Sundays, 12pm-9pm, through October 19th.

This year, Kodansha House unlocks a new chapter of immersive fan experiences with expanded space, more interactive exhibits and fresh programming designed to celebrate the manga community.
