In Closing
At the moment, we weren’t able to confirm exactly where inside the stadium it will be located. We know that the spot around the stadium’s exterior where Strike Ken NOODLE STUDIO used to be is vacant, but it could also open inside the stadium. We’ll share updates if we find out anything else😃
Taka-san, thank you for the tip!!
