Conceived as a real journey behind the scenes, the exhibition s open to all and divides into a number of distinct areas over a 200sqm surface, thus allowing an in-depth exploration of their world.

The first section of the exhibition is an introduction to the major works of the studio. The visitors then proceed to a fake studio, recreated for the occasion, in which workshops and shows will take place. The original pieces are displayed in a mysterious gothic crypt… In addition, a retrospective of the animation series and films inspired by the CLAMP mangas (x 1999, Chobits, xxxHOLIC, etc.) will be shown to the public in the Manga uilding.
