If you’re heading to Japan on March 22 until April, be sure to drop by at the Matsuya Ginza department store in Tokyo for there will be an art exhibition of Hiro Mashima’s works! If you’re a fan of Fairy Tail and Rave Master, this is something that you shouldn’t miss!
The exhibit will feature Mashima’s artwork from full-color illustrations, manga, rough drafts, sketches, and manuscripts. The experience will be like taking you the “the world Mashima”. Exclusive merchandise will also be available if ever you drop by in the exhibit. Be ready on April 2 at 1 on the afternoon for Mashima himself will be in the exhibit to sign autographs for the first 100 visitors on that day.
If your are interested to meet him and have the autograph opportunity, you need to buy at least 1,500 yen (around 13 US Dollars) worth of goods and you need to apply here. Tickets are available at the cost of 1,000 yen and 800 yen (for students) which will go on sale on February 18. You may purchase them at the following venues: PassMarket, Animate, Lawticke, and 7-11 in Japan. This exhibit is part of the manga artist’s 20th year in the industry. Each ticket will come with a free badge.
