Synthesized from 4 Yomimono stories · updated Oct 14

MAPPA EXPO 15th Anniversary opened on September 16, 2026 at YURAKUCHO MUSEUM in Yurakucho, Tokyo, after being announced in June. The exhibition covers all 23 titles MAPPA has worked on and is divided into areas by work, with original drawings, production materials, and sculpted displays. Its Tokyo run ends December 7, 2026. The show is split into two periods, September 16 to October 25 and October 28 to December 7, and some contents swap between the two. After Tokyo, the exhibition is planned to tour multiple regional cities.

The displays are anchored by three of the studio's most commercially prominent titles: Chainsaw Man, Attack on Titan, and Jujutsu Kaisen. Within those areas, the exhibition features a life-size Bomb figure from Chainsaw Man: The Reze Arc, a life-size Yuji Itadori figure in the Jujutsu Kaisen area, and a Rumbling display from Attack on Titan The Final Season that combines video and three-dimensional art. Original goods with newly drawn illustrations and original artwork are sold, including visual acrylic panel sets tied to each of the three titles, and admission bonuses include art postcards in cut-bag-style envelopes with five designs per title.

Before opening, the exhibition added a free audio guide with newly recorded narration by Kenjiro Tsuda, Rie Ueda, Yui Ishikawa, and Asami Seto, played by scanning a QR code on a smartphone; the English version has no voice actor narration. A 30-second commercial narrated by Tsuda uses footage from Chainsaw Man: Reze Arc, Attack on Titan The Final Season, and Jujutsu Kaisen. In October, Tom Cruise and director Alejandro G. Inarritu visited the exhibition while promoting their film DIGGER, touring the Jujutsu Kaisen and Chainsaw Man areas, viewing The Rumbling exhibit, and holding a roundtable with animator Yoshihisa Hiramatsu, who gave them a new illustration of Cruise's character Digger Rockwell.
