The Mamoru Hosoda exhibition 'Mamoru Hosoda: Origins/Exhibition' is set to open June 20 at CREATIVE MUSEUM TOKYO. It is described as the largest-ever exhibition of the director's work.

The attached 'OZ cafe' offers original dishes and drinks inspired by 'Summer Wars', 'The Girl Who Leapt Through Time', and 'Wolf Children'. The cafe runs from June 20 to August 31, 2026. Exclusive collaboration items with 'niko and...' and a digital stamp rally tied to Hosoda's works have also been announced.
