Hakusensha’s shojo manga magazine LaLa is marking its 50th anniversary with a major original-art exhibition titled 創刊50周年記念LaLa原画展～魅惑のクリエイション～ (LaLa 50th Anniversary Gengaten ~Miwaku no Creation~). Full details for the event have now been revealed, including a popular daily visitor gift campaign.
Over 200 Original Works from 76 Artists
The exhibition will showcase more than 200 pieces of original artwork from 76 creators, tracing the magazine’s five-decade history through archival covers, editorial pages, and reference materials. Rare physical items will also be on display, including the very first issue from 1976, period supplements, and name drafts (storyboards) that offer a behind-the-scenes look at the creative process.
Visitors can also enjoy themed photo spots inspired by the worlds of featured series, an interactive corner where attendees can record their own personal “heart-fluttering” moments, and a wide range of commemorative merchandise including an official exhibition catalog.
Free Daily Illustration Cards for All Visitors
Every visitor will receive a free exclusive illustration card. Five different designs are distributed Monday through Friday, while weekend visitors receive one of the five at random. The daily lineup is as follows:
- Monday: Narita Minako’s CIPHER & Akizuki Sorata’s Akagami no Shirayukihime (Snow White with the Red Hair)
- Tuesday: Tatsumi Natsumi’s Yakumo Tatsu & Hatori Bisco’s Ouran High School Host Club
- Wednesday: Shimizu Reiko’s Kaguya-hime & Midorikawa Yuki’s Natsume Yuujinchou (Natsume’s Book of Friends)
- Thursday: Tsuda Masami’s Kareshi Kanojo no Jijou (Kare Kano) & Hino Matsuri’s Vampire Knight Memories
- Friday: Hikawa Kyoko’s Kanata Kara (From Far Away) & Fujiwara Hiro’s Kaichou wa Maid-sama!
Collecting all five cards and stacking them together creates a single combined frame featuring characters from all ten series.
