Tokiwaso

Tokiwaso is a two-story apartment building whose framework was set up at 2253, 5-Chome, Shiinamachi, Toshima City on December 6, 1952 and was an ordinary building in those days. In the following year, Tezuka Osamu moved to this apartment building thanks to Gakudosha, who was the publisher of the magazine “Manga Shonen,” finding it for him. After around a year, Terada Hiroo moved to this apartment building in the same manner. Later, Tokiwaso became a gathering spot of young manga artists who came up to Tokyo. They improved themselves through friendly rivalry and continued developing the possibilities of manga.
Although it was demolished in December 1982 due to aging, thanks to the help of many supporters,it was reconstructed as a manga museum. With cooperation from manga and anime lovers,the museum is the site of planned exhibition and other events as a hub to share manga and anime culture and pass it down to future generations.
