The world's most unhinged green owl has made his way to Shibuya. Language-learning app Duolingo has just launched DuoMart, a pop-up store inspired by Japan's ubiquitous konbini. The shop is located a few minutes' walk from Shibuya Station at Openbase Shibuya, a stone's throw from shopping centre Shibuya Parco.

Here you can pick up all manner of merch featuring mascots Duo, Lily, Zari, Oscar and Falstaff, including exclusive items not found anywhere else.

DuoMart is here from now until December 30 and is open from 10am to 8pm daily. Make sure to get there early, as the venue may start giving out numbered tickets for entry if things get too busy, and once they're gone for the day, they're gone. Check the store's social media for updates.
