SUMMARY:Kodansha House LA 2026
DESCRIPTION:Kodansha House LA brings the Japanese publishing giant behind Attack on Titan\, Blue Lock\, Witch Hat Atelier\, and hundreds of other beloved manga series to Little Tokyo Los Angeles during Anime Expo week. The pop-up runs for ten days at 701 E 3rd St in the Arts District\, adjacent to Little Tokyo\, creating an immersive brand space where manga fans can connect with the publisher directly.\n\nThe activation features meet-and-greets with manga creators and authors visiting from Japan\, exclusive merchandise drops\, preview content for upcoming series\, and fan community programming built around Kodansha's biggest current titles. Blue Lock — currently one of the fastest-growing sports manga in North America — and Witch Hat Atelier are expected to feature heavily in the programming schedule.\n\nThis type of publisher pop-up experience is rare in the United States. Kodansha typically does not maintain a retail presence in North America\, making this a genuinely limited-window opportunity for fans to engage with the publisher\, the creators\, and other readers who care deeply about the craft of manga storytelling.\n\nLittle Tokyo is walkable from the Arts District and accessible via the Metro A/E Lines (Little Tokyo/Arts District station). The surrounding neighborhood has excellent Japanese restaurants\, specialty shops\, and the Japanese American National Museum within walking distance. Plan to spend at least a half-day if you are making the trip. Free to enter\; merchandise available for purchase.
