Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo Exhibition: DIVE INTO THE BO-BOBO WORLD

ボボボーボ・ボーボボ展 DIVE INTO THE BO-BOBO WORLD

"Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo Exhibition: DIVE INTO THE BO-BOBO WORLD" runs from January 8 through January 24, 2027 in the special venue on the 4th floor of the ATC ITM Building in Suminoe-ku.

The exhibition presents itself as a "Hajikerist Training Program" – a tongue-in-cheek concept billing itself as a project to free modern minds from the constraints of meaning and correct answers. Under the tagline "Awakening to Nonsense" (脱・意味への覚醒), visitors follow the battle trails of Bo-bobo and his fellow Hajikerists, take in the legend with their own eyes, and emerge into what the official site calls "a magnificent Hajike".

The Key Visual

The teaser visual unveiled with the announcement shows the series' protagonist – Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo, seventh-generation inheritor of the Hanage Shinken (Nose Hair Fist) and current King of Hajikerists – in a cool pose. It captures the afterimage of his Waki-ge Shinken (Armpit Hair Fist) technique "Kekon (Sparkling)", the move used to defeat Hagen, captain of G Block of the Hair Hunters, in episode 1 of the TV anime. The artwork is rendered in vivid, colourful tones designed to evoke immersion into the Bo-bobo world.
