An exhibition celebrating the 10th anniversary of the Bungo Stray Dogs anime has been announced. Titled “Bungo Stray Dogs ART & DESIGN EXHIBITION,” the event will open at Animate Ikebukuro Main Store’s Space Galleria on July 31, 2026, before traveling to Osaka.
Bungo Stray Dogs is an异能 battle action series featuring characters named after real-life literary figures such as Nakajima Atsushi, Dazai Osamu, and Akutagawa Ryunosuke. The manga, written by Asagiri Kafka and illustrated by Harukawa 35, began serialization in Young Ace in 2012, and related books have surpassed 17.5 million copies in cumulative circulation. The TV anime first aired in April 2016 and has since broadcast five seasons totaling 61 episodes.
To mark the 10th anniversary of the anime in April 2026, the exhibition will focus on the art and design that have defined the series over the years. Visitors can enjoy displays highlighting these elements.
As an入场 benefit, attendees will receive one random postcard from a set of 10 designs featuring Nakajima Atsushi, Dazai Osamu, Akutagawa Ryunosuke, Fyodor D, Nikolai G, Oda Sakunosuke, Nakahara Chuuya, Edogawa Ranpo, Fukuzawa Yukichi, and Fukuchi Ochi.
Exclusive commemorative goods will be available for purchase at the venue. Items include acrylic stands, badge collections, and stickers, all featuring sepia-toned characters with vibrant accents.
Other playful items include photo-booth-style goods, record-shaped coasters, and plush toys perfect for carrying around and showing off your favorite characters.
Purchases totaling 5,500 yen (tax included) or more at the merchandise area will come with a special shopper bag featuring the exhibition key visual and popular characters, while supplies last.
This event offers formal-attire character goods fitting for the 10th anniversary. Further details on exhibits, tickets, and commemorative items will be announced on the official website and social media.
