Doraemon is a Japanese manga/anime with many fans, and is popular among both children and adults alike . Serialization began in 1969, from Shogakukan's yearly magazine, and TV animations and movies have also become popular.

The Doraemon Future Department Store, a mecca for Doraemon fans, is a 5-minute walk from Yurikamome Daiba Station and a 3-minute walk from Tokyo Teleport Station on the Rinkai Line.
You can also use the parking lot at DiverCity Tokyo.

There is no admission fee, but you will need to purchase a Future-Department Store coin (fee required) in order to enjoy the secret gadgets shown at 0:22 in the video.
It can be quite crowded on weekends, but no numbered tickets are given out, so those visiting will need to wait in line.
The shop is open from 10:00 to 21:00.
The Doraemon Future Department Store is not a limited-time event store, but rather, a permanent store. That being said, if you miss visiting it on one trip, there's always next time.
