It was almost like a pilgrimage for me to visit Kyoto International Manga Museum. And it really was not a disappointment. It was so cool and good place. It is located near The Nijo Castle, huge castle of late Shougans.
MANGA ( comic books) have been playing a significant role in Japanese culture nowadays as its big brother ANIME( animation films) too. And it have a great international value.
The place is so interesting and living. There are almost endless walls full of manga books assorted in years. People go there just to read manga. They can have a card to go even every day to do that. Then there are all kind of information of making manga and of manga makers. At that time we visited the museum there was the 10 year Retrospective exhibition of Katsuya Terada, a leading illustrator and manga artist of Japan. Unfortunately it was forbidden to take photos, I have photo only of the flowers and one general shot of the exhibition and one pict of his work that i have scanned. Exellent exhibition. Exellent museum as you can see from the following...
