Marui Stores Remodel, Lolita Shops Relocate

Shinjuku shopping mall and Lolita mecca MaruiYoung/MaruiOne is closing down today, as well as other Shinjuku Marui locations, and will reopen February 27, while MaruiCity-2 will reopen on February 20. Update: Please note Marui City 2 has been renamed "Marui One" for its new opening, with the old, different Marui One now called Marui Curren.

A mass exodus will take place, putting nearly all the brands you know and love at the MaruiCity-2 location (to be called Marui One) in time for its February 20th opening.

Algonquins will be leaving the Marui stores for good, while Emily Temple Cute and Jane Marple will remain open during the remodeling through temporary stores at MaruiCity-1.
