Japanese animation studio Shin-Ei Animation — the house behind beloved series such as Doraemon and Crayon Shin-chan — is marking its 50th anniversary with a special exhibition event.

Behind-the-Scenes Materials and Giant Timeline
Beyond the title panels, the exhibition will display production materials including scripts and design documents that are integral to the anime-making process. Rare cel art from works based on Fujiko Fujio Ⓐ‘s original manga will also be on show — items that cannot be seen anywhere else. A 3.6-metre-tall timeline chronicling Shin-Ei Animation’s 50-year history, illustrated with key visuals from across the decades, will serve as a dedicated photo spot. All visitors will receive a commemorative sticker upon entry.
