The BLACK LAGOON 25th Anniversary Genga Exhibition, celebrating a quarter-century of Rei Hiroe’s acclaimed manga series, officially opened on November 13 at Sunshine 60 Tenbodai Tenbou Park in Tokyo. A media preview was held the day prior on November 12.

Character Panels and a Message from the Creator

Visitors arriving at the event floor are greeted by life-sized character panels of Revy, Balalaika, Eda, Roberta, Shenhua, Sawyer, and Rumajoule. At the entrance, the exhibition’s main visual is displayed alongside a personal message from creator Rei Hiroe.

180 Reproduction Artworks and Official Props

The exhibition showcases approximately 180 reproduction original artworks, including manga manuscript pages starting from the very first chapter, “Chase for ring-ding ships,” as well as a wide array of colour illustrations.

A major highlight is the collection of official props — three-dimensional recreations of iconic weapons wielded by characters in the series. These include Revy’s beloved Beretta M92 Custom “Priyachat Sword Cutlass”. The display also incorporates fine details from the series, such as the specific brands of whisky and cigarettes favoured by each character, bringing the world of BLACK LAGOON to life in remarkable detail.

Bar Yellow Flag Photo Spot

One of the exhibition’s most immersive attractions is a photo spot modelled after Bar Yellow Flag, the establishment that frequently serves as a battleground in the series. The recreation features a bullet-riddled bar counter, complete with gunshot sound effects playing as background audio to heighten the atmosphere. Midway through the exhibition, visitors can also take in a large-scale panel featuring the full cast of characters from the city of Roanapur gathered together.

Merchandise

The merchandise corner at the rear of the venue offers a range of commemorative goods, including:

• Colour reproduction prints
• Character fine boards
• Acrylic stands featuring newly drawn illustrations
