The J-POP Center and Viz Cinema
By Ann • Aug 3, 2008It looks like Japantown will be getting a great boost soon… San Francisco-based Viz Pictures (an affiliate of Viz Media) is in the process of constructing the J-POP Center in San Francisco’s Japantown. The J-POP Center will be a commercial building housing a branch of Kinokuniya Book Store, a cafe, several trendy Japanese fashion boutiques, and the 150-seat movie theater Viz Cinema. Viz Cinema will focus on Japanese film, including first-run movies directly from Tokyo, anime films, monthly directors’ series, and more.
According to a news post on the Viz Pictures official website, the J-POP Center (and presumably Viz Cinema) is scheduled to open in 2009.

It’s called “New People” now, and the grand opening is August 15, which is very soon! YAY!
I am so looking forward to this! This could become a major hang-out place for all Bay Area anime/manga fans.
