This marks the very first public showcase of Mr Fujimoto’s inventive and formative illustrations outside of Japan.

Apart from the drawings, you can experience selected highlights from the Doraemon the Movie series. You can interact with a reproduction of Mr Fujimoto’s desk in his workroom— where he created many Doraemon drawings.
