StoreUpdatedTemporarily ClosedPreview

As of 19:25 on May 8, the store data on Matsuya’s official site showed that the temporary closure schedule for “Matsuya Nakano Ekimae Store” (Nakano Ward, Tokyo) had been revised again from the listing seen two hours earlier, at 17:25. The store name listing was updated to “Matsuya Nakano Ekimae Store *Temporarily closed from 15:00 on May 11, reopening at 11:00 on May 18.”

Item As of 17:25 As of 19:25 (this revision)
Temporary closure time Monday, May 11, 18:00 Monday, May 11, 15:00
Renewal reopening time Monday, May 18, 8:00 Monday, May 18, 11:00
Closure period About 6.5 days (158 hours) About 7 days (164 hours)

The closure time was moved up three hours, the reopening time was pushed back three hours, and the closure period was extended by about 6 hours as a result.

From an “Outlier Schedule” to a “Closure Time Matching Other Stores”

As of the pre-revision 17:25 listing, Nakano Ekimae Store was the only one of the 11 stores with temporary closures in May on the outlier schedule of “closing at 18:00, reopening at 8:00.” With this revision, the closure time now matches 15:00, the same as 9 of the other 10 stores, and since Aoto Store, Asaka Hizaori Store, and Nangodori Store — which also begin their temporary closures on May 11 — all close at 15:00 as well, all four stores starting closure on May 11 are now fully aligned on a 15:00 closure time.

Time setting As of 17:25 As of 19:25
Closure time 18:00 (only 2 cases, alongside Gokasho Store) 15:00 (unified across the 4 stores starting May 11)
Reopening time 8:00 (the only early-morning reopening) 11:00 (the only 11:00 reopening, right after the group of 5 stores reopening at 10:00)

The reopening time, at 11:00, did not align completely with other stores, but it was pushed back three hours from the pre-revision 8:00, moving closer to the time slot right after the five stores reopening at 10:00 (Asaka Hizaori Store, Sawara Store, Fuji Round One Store, Tatsuno Store, and Aoto Store).

Even After the Revision, Still the Shortest Closure Period Among May’s 11 Stores

The closure period was extended by about 6 hours, from about 6.5 days to about 7 days, but it remains the shortest among the 11 stores with temporary closures in May. A gap of just over 2 days remains with the next-shortest, Gokasho Store (about 9 days).
