Bangkokians are always ready for action, especially when it’s about their beloved Japanese anime. This time, Naruto fans can gear up to jump into the ninja world as the exhibition Naruto The Gallery brings the spirit of Konoha right into the Big Mango.
After debuting in Singapore to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the Naruto anime, the exhibition is now set to arrive in Bangkok. It will be held at RCB Galleria 1–2 on the second floor of River City Bangkok, from May 31 to July 31.
Over two decades, this Shonen Jump manga series, later adapted into an anime, has captured the hearts of both kids and adults worldwide. In many ways, we grew up alongside the journey of ninja Uzumaki Naruto, from a mere student to the leader of the Hidden Leaf Village.
Now, this exhibition is set to bring these iconic characters to life across seven zones. Experience legendary anime scenes, explore original storyboards, uncover character designs and relive the pivotal moments that made this anime a must-love.
Some highlights include a detailed diorama of the setting, a section dedicated to memorable quotes from characters and an exclusive collaboration with five rising stars from the Japanese art scene. Featured artists include Kohei Kadowaki, an animation artist; Kosuke Sugimoto, a video artist; and Kohta Morie, the founder of MORIE Inc. Each will reinterpret famous scenes from the anime in their unique style, offering perspectives that can only be seen at this exhibition.
Tickets for Naruto: The Gallery in Bangkok are available now via Eventpop, with early bird tickets on sale until May 30.
