The World of Manga (worldmuseum)

Some people knows that I am not a fan of museums, but when I heard that Akatsuki Katoh, Shiho ENTA, Ching Nakamura & Fuzichoco are having their work shown her in the netherlands I just have to go and see it.

On 15th August 2013 I went to meet up with friends at the Amsterdam central station and we went to get the train there to Rotterdam. As we all never been to Rotterdam with the trein we were scared to be lost, but thank god I did some good googling on how to get there. It was really easy to find the place, so we were all happy that we got there without any troubles. When we got there we got our tickets to go inside, we also received a small device that we can use to listen to the informations on the pieces that are shown.

The museum was showing work from the section "the World of Manga" & "The collection" We weren't planning to go and see the collection, but we did see the first floor of it because we got into the wrong entrance for the Manga section. After some trouble trying to find our way to the manga section we went to ask the people who work there and at the end we finally found it. I have taken over 120 pictures, but here are some pictures and some of my favourite ones.

Shino ENTA work:

       

Ching Nakamura Work:

Akatsuki Katoh work:

 

Fuzichoco Work:

        

Artist that has used different god's to inspire them to draw/create (such as Tekken, Street FIghter, Final Fantasy, etc)

         

Cosplay section, I found the section a huge disappointment especially the information they put up. There was one where they were dressed in Goth clothes and the description says steam punk, and another one the girl was dressed in Goth lolita, and the information says "she isn't dressed as Goth but she is Goth" I really have the urge to pull the information tag of the wall.

The last section is about Wolf Children, its a movie that has been released in 2012 and it  is directed by Mamoru Hosoda. I was interested of the pictures that has been showed, such as the progress of figuring the characters.

         

I really enjoyed it, if anyone that will be coming to the Netherlands and loves Manga then I would recommend you go and see it. The exhibition will be up till 12 January 2014. Entrance fee is 12,50 euro if you are younger than 12 years old then its free.
