Overview

Experience the gentle and heartwarming world of Mitsumi Iwakura and her friends at the first-ever “manga and anime crossover” exhibition for Misaki Takamatsu’s critically acclaimed series, “Skip and Loafer.” This special event celebrates the charm of the original manga alongside the vibrant production of the anime adaptation, bringing both mediums together in a singular, immersive space. Fans will have the opportunity to view high-quality manuscript reproductions, character designs, and exclusive behind-the-scenes materials that illustrate the “straight step” journey of the characters.

Following its initial opening in Tokyo at Ikebukuro Sunshine City, the exhibition is set to tour nationwide, reaching fans in Nagoya, Osaka, and Kanazawa. The exhibition space is carefully curated to reflect the series’ signature themes of youth, self-discovery, and the beauty of everyday life. Whether you are a long-time reader of the manga or a fan of the anime’s refreshing visuals, this exhibition offers a nostalgic and heartwarming environment to celebrate one of the most beloved slice-of-life stories of the decade.

Faqs

What are the benefits of purchasing the goods included admission ticket?

Those who purchase the goods-included admission ticket will receive a limited-edition “Pouch & Visual Sticker Set.” These items are exclusive to the exhibition and are not sold separately, making them a high-value collectible for dedicated fans of the series.

Can I buy tickets at the door on the day of my visit?

Same-day tickets may be available at the venue entrance; however, they are subject to availability and the current crowd situation. If the venue reaches capacity or if advance tickets are sold out, same-day ticket sales will be closed, so purchasing in advance is highly recommended.

Are there age-specific rules for young children?

Children under the age of two are allowed free entry to the exhibition, provided they are accompanied by a parent or guardian. Please note that the accompanying adult must have a valid paid ticket, and the child must remain with the guardian at all times.

Is the goods included ticket available for the Nagoya venue?

For the Nagoya venue, the goods-included same-day tickets are only sold at the venue if the planned number of advance tickets has not been reached. They are not available through online platforms like Ticket PIA for same-day sales, so checking availability early is essential.

What are the operating hours for the Tokyo and Nagoya venues?

The Tokyo venue at Sunshine City is open from 10:00 to 19:00, with the last entry at 18:30. The Nagoya venue at Telepia Hall has slightly shorter hours, operating from 10:00 to 17:00, with the final admission allowed at 16:30.
