The Girl Who Leapt Through Time Cafe will be open from July 7 to August 7.
But while Tokikake (the nickname for The Girl Who Leapt Through Time, coming from its Japanese title Toki wo Kakeru Shojo) gets top billing, the cafe’s food and drink are inspired by all four of Hosoda’s most recent anime, which means there are also menu items saluting Summer Wars, Wolf Children, and The Boy and the Beast.
As is becoming the norm for anime-themed cafes, a number of the menu items come with coasters bearing illustrations from Hosoda’s works, and the restaurant’s interior will be likewise decorated with scenes evocative of The Girl Who Leapt Through Time.
Since 2006, anime director Mamoru Hosoda has taken three years between theatrical projects.
