Weekday mornings are the quietest time, while weekends are packed all day long.

Respecting Moomin culture

To honor the characters' heritage, Moomin House Cafe serves bread made from Finnish rye, and offers food and pastries in the form of Moomin characters.

Cafe staff say there have been long lines almost every day since its "lonely-friendly" concept went viral.

It's a long overdue turn in the spotlight -- the cafe has been open since 2003.

There are now three Moomin Cafe locations in Japan -- the Tokyo Dome location is especially popular with Dome concert goers.

Beloved for their whimsical adventures and diverse array of characters, Moomins are celebrated in their home country of Finland and anime-obsessed Japan.

This year marks the 100th anniversary of the birth of their creator, Tove Jansson, who was born in 1914 and died in 2001.

Created by Finnish illustrator and writer Tove Jansson, Moomins have developed a cult following worldwide, inspiring Moomin-themed products, shops and even a theme park in Finland. Another park is slated to open in Japan in 2017.

说到化解单身尴尬的好创意——无论是单身汉博主与虚拟女友自拍，还是旅行社带顾客的毛绒玩具去旅行，日本似乎十分重视照顾单身顾客的市场需求。

如今，日本令人惊叹的创意又多了一个——东京“姆明咖啡屋”让你不再孤独。
