MANGA⇔TOKYO

An integrated display of fiction and reality, featuring Japanese manga (comics), anime, videogames, and SFX films-arts that richly reflect the Japanese view of nature—with a focus on their portrayal of Tokyo, a city frequently visited by natural and man-made disasters, vigorously rebuilt each time. Displays are captioned in English, Chinese, and Korean as well as Japanese.
