Manga Gallery Cafe "CAFE Okaoka" Relocates and Reopens

Okaoka Inc. (Headquarters: Taito-ku, Tokyo / Representative: Britney Hamada) will reopen its manga gallery cafe, "CAFE Okaoka," in Asakusa on April 19, 2026.
This three-story establishment will serve as a new cultural hub, blending manga culture with a cafe experience. In addition to manga original art exhibitions and talk events, manga lessons will be held to create a place where creators and fans can connect in real life.

■Cafe × Manga Gallery × Lessons: A New "Experiential Cafe"

"CAFE Okaoka" has evolved beyond a mere eatery into a place where manga culture can be "experienced and learned."
The store will regularly host original art exhibitions by manga artists, as well as events and talk shows.
Furthermore, events featuring voice actors and tokusatsu actors are planned for the future.
Manga artist-led lessons and workshops will also be held.
These will offer content enjoyable for beginners and experienced individuals alike, providing an opportunity to directly experience the "joy of drawing."
The aim is to create a constantly evolving gallery space where new works, learning, and encounters are born with every visit.
Located in Asakusa, an area visited by tourists from both Japan and overseas, it will also play a role in promoting Japanese manga culture to the world.
