| According to Tokyo Walker, a convenience store franchise Lawson opened a new store "Lawson at Tokyo-III" in Hakone, the model city of Tokyo-III. The store is completely covered with Evangelion-related stuff and decorations. The outward appearance of the store Eva figures are piled up inside. Asuka and Rei welcome you before picking up drinks and ice creams. UCC coffee Rei version Fried chickens in Eve Unit cups Evangelion Chips Countless numbers of Asuka bread The magazine shelves are occupied by Eva manga The clerk wears a NERV uniform Eva fans have been rushing in the store and those Eva items and foods are sold as soon as they were put on the shelves. The store will close on May 17th. Source: Tokyo Walker Updated on April 25th Lawson announced the closure of Evangelion store on April 25th. Unexpected number of people visited the store and they concluded that they cannot secure the safety anymore. The flood of Eva fans caused traffic jams and noises at night.

| XD creative |
| I wasn't a hug fan of EVA, but the fans must love it. Oh, and you gotta love the "fried chickens in Eve Unit cups". I would buy that! XD |
| Hoho, it must be pretty expensive. They should grow out of Eva already. |
Earth gets angry after a kick in the face. |
| wish we had stores like that in denmark :( |
 |
| making big bucks |
| I want some Asuka bread. |
| i wonder if some of the work requirements would be to watch everything to do with the EVA series twice over. =3 |
======================================================= Sign here; (Your Soul) |
| I want sooooo much to go. |
 |
| That's one hell of a nice convenience store!XD |
| they should have had "masturbating over comatose girl hand wipes" and what the heck is Asuka bread? is the bread like really bitchy or some thing? |
| It doesn't think, it doesn't feel, it doesn't laugh or cry..... All it does from dusk till dawn is make the soldiers die. |

bla bla bla The endless debate between fans and haters. At one point, after spending a lot of time on MAL, you just realize it's totally pointless.Niko-kun said: On MAL, everyone who has used the lame rating system becomes a critic and an intellectual by default, haven't you heard? |
| wow, that's really to the extreme. |
| tie-up http://www.lawson.co.jp/eva/original.html The earier wins http://www.lawson.co.jp/eva/limit.html Lot http://www.lawson.co.jp/eva/kuji.html |
| Somewhat ...disturbing, imho, but I guess it could be fun to visit a place like that :/ |
 |
| I actually want a NERV uniform... |
 |
| *owner returns after extended holiday* "OMG what have u done to my store?!?!?!?!?!" |
Pw3age said: I actually want a NERV uniform... No doubt that clerk has already received offers for it. Didn't some 7-11 stores in the States do something like that with The Simpsons last year or the year before? |
 |
| Eva is sure like pop culture phenomenon in japan like that's of star wars. |
| It's not good enough for the hardcore fans if they don't sell pills for nervous breakdown and manic depression |
| Signature? I ain't got no signature! I don't need no signature! I don't have to show you any stinkin' signature! |
| Chicken looks good, wonder what's the filling in the bread. |
| Fun thing, the people of the crowd look quite normal for what we take for "otaku". I'd like to have been there, I want my own EVA in pink. |

Picture of the crowded store Source: Lawson Yeah, I read about it in msn Japan. It shows that the event is popular to the extend that it had to stop. Too bad the final day was May 17th, but had to end early. |
I ♥ Two Syaorans from Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE and TRC!!! |

And I want a Rei coffee! |
