The 「放送30周年記念 TVアニメ “名探偵コナン” 展」 — the official exhibition celebrating 30 years of the Detective Conan TV anime — is heading to Hiroshima, opening on 19 September 2026 at NTT Credo Hall. The event comes packed with behind-the-scenes displays, exclusive merchandise, and a special character appearance.
Three Decades of Detective Conan
Detective Conan is a TV anime adaptation of the mystery manga by Gosho Aoyama, serialised in Shogakukan’s Weekly Shōnen Sunday. The series has sold over 270 million copies worldwide and won the 46th Shogakukan Manga Award in the shōnen category. The anime first aired in January 1996, making 2026 its landmark 30th anniversary year. The latest theatrical instalment, Detective Conan: Angel of the Highway, is currently in cinemas and continues the franchise’s run of record-breaking box-office results.
What’s Inside the Exhibition
The exhibition guides visitors through the full production pipeline of the TV anime, from initial planning all the way through to theme songs. Key zones include:
- Entrance: Conan Edogawa and 30 characters welcome visitors in honour of the 30th anniversary.
- Opening Sequence Zone: Every version of the iconic “looks like a kid, brain of an adult — the one and only, Detective Conan!!” opening scene, compiled across all 30 years.
- Character Design & Art Settings Zone: Original design documents and background art, including insights into Aoyama’s character-creation philosophy and the director’s favourite tricks. A scale model of the Mouri Detective Agency, built from actual production art, is also on display.
- Storyboard Zone: Real storyboards used in production, displayed across an entire wall.
- Animation Zone: Conan’s movements broken down frame by frame, illustrating the key animation process.
- Voice Acting Zone: Compare Conan Edogawa’s voice across different emotions, plus celebratory messages from the cast.
- Theme Song Zone: A timeline of opening and ending theme songs with historical CD jacket artwork.
- Memorial Scene Zone: Iconic moments and character highlights arranged chronologically from 1996 to the present.
- Thanks Theater: An exhibition-exclusive special movie — an original story that can only be seen here.
