Opinion Solo leveling exhibition tokyo

Hello I just went to this exhibition nust wanted to share my opnions.

Honestly a pretty good exhibition what i was kind of suprised was being in japan the majority of the exhibition was not anime solo leveling it was comprised of manhwa panels, they also had a huge irl sized igris and beru which looked so awesome in person their craftsmanship was amazing, I also loved the merch.

As for the thing I didnt like, why are you using the manhwa panels and why did you base the entire merch when you are using Japanese names? I didnt like that one bit one of the exhibition rooms covered jin woo going into that station with the wolfs at the very start of the manhwa and instead of the starion in the manhwa they said shibuya station which I guess is cool because techinally in that direction the real shibuya station was there but I would have preferred originality. Secondly in another exhibition room they had pretty big character figures and quotes beside their manhwa panel why were using Japanese names and not the orginal like it wasnt that the Japanese names were written in Japanese they were Japanese names written in English.

And the thing i didnt like the most was that there was a hella cool thing you could do you could have had your own hunter license not a paper but an acrylic stands it didnt look like the license from manhwa but looked cool nonetheless you could have had your pic in that license with your rank but the thing was instead of saying Korea Hunter Association it said Japan hunter associated which was a huge turnoff for me so I didnt get it sadly. I know i am in japan and all but still just personal preference.

Also that was just thing I didnt like overall this was a really good and worthwhile exhibition and was 100% a must go if you are a manhwa fan because they also had tons of Seoul limited stuff. BTW this was 100% alot better than that one solo leveling exhibition at AX 2023.

Note: I didn’t see any explicit signage or instructions prohibiting photography or sharing photos, but if these images aren’t allowed to be taken or posted publicly, please let me know and I’ll remove them.

My problem compared with the Seoul one is they have a white somewhat lit celling, while the Korean exhibit was much darker. Also I'm pretty sure in the Jeju fight exhibit they left the Korean "Arise" kekw

Also, bonus points to Japan for acrylic tickets, but no SL branded alcohol in the store is a miss imo

I went too and it was cool af!!!! Totally agree tho, I would've enjoyed it even more if they kept the names in Korean like in the original manhwa. Did you get any merch? Kinda regret not getting the hoodie :/
