The first 『Yoshikazu Yasuhiko/Mobile Suit Gundam: The Origin』 exhibition in Kanazawa opened on Saturday, December 17. Fans who witnessed the exhibition were surprised to see Yoshikazu Yasuhiko himself in person.
What is 『Mobile Suit Gundam The Origin Exhibition』?
It has been 20 years since 『Mobile Suit Gundam The Origin』 (original story: Hajime Yatate, Yoshiyuki Tomino / manga: Yoshikazu Yasuhiko) was serialized in 『Gundam Ace』 (first published June 25, 2001), a magazine dedicated to the Gundam series. To commemorate this, a large-scale exhibition will be held at exhibition halls across Japan.
Many illustrations are exhibited under the complete supervision of Yoshikazu Yasuhiko, and original goods using illustrations drawn exclusively for the exhibition will also be on sale. The exhibition will open at Kanazawa Mza in Kanazawa City, Ishikawa Prefecture, the third venue following Tokorozawa and Fukuoka venues. More than 500 hand-drawn illustrations will be exhibited.
What a surprise! On the first day, Yoshikazu Yasuhiko
Speaking of Yoshikazu Yasuhiko, he took the stage at the completion of his directorial work, 『Mobile Suit Gundam: The Island of Cruz Doan』, in May to praise the voice actors, saying, 「They say it’s been 40 years, but I guess that’s how old I am… Compared to that, Toru Furuya and everyone else is young」, but this time he showed his vitality at age 75 to visit the exhibition venue.
