Rihga Royal Hotel Hiroshima will offer a stay plan that includes an admission ticket to the “Animage and Ghibli Exhibition: Ghibli Began with a Single Magazine” to be held at NTT Credo Hall adjacent to the hotel. The period covered is from July 16 to September 3.
Animage” was born in 1978 as Japan’s first commercial animation magazine to serve as a bridge between animation fans and creators. The exhibition will focus on “Animage,” which Toshio Suzuki, currently a producer at Studio Ghibli, worked on when he was an editor, and will reveal the origins of Studio Ghibli.
The exhibition introduces the path from the time when even the word “anime” had not yet spread to the birth of “Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind” and “Laputa: Castle in the Sky” through the blockbuster success of “Mobile Suit Gundam” in 1979 and the discovery of directors Isao Takahata and Hayao Miyazaki, who went on to direct Ghibli. Also on display will be more than 200 items, including celluloid drawings from “Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind,” which will be shown for the first time, materials from Mamoru Oshii’s “Tenshi no Tamago,” a diorama depicting a famous scene from “Mobile Suit Gundam” using early Gunpla, and “Wind User’s Foul Sea Costume” from “Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind.
Prices for stays with admission tickets will range from 14,000 yen for one person, 18,000 yen for two people, 25,500 yen for three people, and 32,000 yen for four people.
