Amazing little place of the history of anime. There’re audio guides for free. Several interactive sections like voice-dubbing and having a go at some stop-motion drawings. Good couple of hours spent there.

Free museum about animation. English friendly, including an English audio tour guide. Highlights include interactive dubbing, kinda like karaoke where you match the subtitles to the spoken dialogue, and an interactive exhibit where you can try to make your own animation. Not super expansive or inclusive but ridiculously good to see for being free

The museum is very cool and I enjoyed the time there. The staff is very nice and helpful. The entry is free and its located in the 3-4th floor of the building. The current theme is spy x family and you can get a cute Anya stamp there!

Free entrance to this museum. The museum is very small. This place is accessible via public transportation (bus). It is a very interesting place. You will get to try drawing your own anime, voice over experience and create sound effects.

Exhibition is small and can be finished in 30 mins. Free admission and interesting to watch how Japanese animation were made. Lots of interactive features too - make your own animation.

A cool place to visit if you're into animation, and it's free, too! The staff are very helpful! Activities are mostly for the kids to enjoy, but adults will learn lots as well. Please be advised that recording of videos are not allowed, and there are a few spots where photography is not allowed.

Let's talk about the jewel that is this museum. It's fun to go with friends and it's free to get in. The exhibit changes every month. You can try your hand at drawing, tracing and voice acting. They have their own library on the 3rd floor where you can watch anime and or read books. It's a bit of a walk but you can take a bus if you don't wanna take the trek. It's such a great thing and everyone needs to come and enjoy it.
