Nice article! I bet it was amazing going there. Kubo's work is perfect for an art exhibit.

Dead horse being beat at this point, but I really wish Klub Outside was open to overseas fans. That, and the contents of this exhibit, just feel like things I'm almost being forced to miss out on or experience second hand. I feel like part of this goes back to the unsavory impersonation of Kubo that happened that forced him to delete Twitter. He's basically back now, but you need a Japanese phone number, or to actually be in Japan, to pick his brain.
I do love hearing how things like Kubo's dialog and his musical affinity are showcased alongside the brilliant visual design. Everything you see and hear from this event sounds like a true celebration.

Kim, you could have come up with a different title that doesn't mislead readers. Bleach's story doesn't continue. It's merely shown off. Nothing there progresses anything in the story that we haven't already seen.

As expected.
| Quote: | | Anyone working even adjacently with art or graphic design was aware of what Bleach did to push the image of manga as a "cool" and "stylish" art. |
Yes, and before Bleach was Kazuki Takahashi with Yu-Gi-Oh!, which ran in Shonen Jump from 1996 to 2004 (Bleach started in August 2001).

I'm sure he receives enough "when's the Hell arc gonna continue" from the Japanese side of the fanbase alone already.

So is there a wall that's entirely blank except for the text, "The Heart"?

Japanese fans are very lucky here in the states we would never see such a event.

^ It's not lucky. It's the norm. Vice versa for any foreigner related event that doesn't happen in Japan due to reasons, which are not hard to figure out.

Maybe not in a store, but there have been a handful of anime artwork exhibits on display in the US. Years ago there was a Osamu Tezuka exhibit that made several stops in the US. I went to the exhibit when it stopped at San Francisco's Asian Art Museum.
There are anime exhibits in museums in Europe. Some of the artwork that I personally own was used in an exhibit for a museum in The Netherlands a few years ago.
I suspect the infrequency of these exhibits is not only due to the fact that many Americans don't realize that physical forms of artwork from many series exist but also getting permission from the copyright holders and owners of such items to allow them to travel abroad. It was a pretty complicated procedure to send artwork abroad when I did it for the exhibit. I had to fill out a lot of forms regarding shipping, loaning and display of the items for the museum. I also had to fill out several Customs forms.
