About Gosho Aoyama

Gosho Aoyama is a manga writer from Hokuei Town, Tottori Prefecture. Most of his works are well-known such as YAIBA, Magic Kaito, and Detective Conan! Ain’t many titles, you say? Yes it is true since he has been working on Detective Conan more than two decades and it is still continuing. Other titles lasted just 4-5 years in average. This Gosho Aoyama Manga Factory opened in 2007 to introduce history of his works and some fun attractions so non-followers would be able to enjoy as well.

 

Outside

A long lineup is expected during the holiday. It took us for 20-30 minutes to the ticket counter. While lining up, music from the museum kinda amused us with ‘investigating scene’, ‘killing scene’ BGM, etc., which we usually hear from the show. Heh heh.

 

Inside

Here we go. Camera is not allowed around original art works.

 

YAIBA reminds me of my childhood! I myself played Kendo like YAIBA but it was every Sunday night which YAIBA anime show was broadcasted, so I was not able to watch it much. My bitter memory.

 

Made-For-Real Gadgets!

Here’s gallery of gadgets that Conan and his gang use in the show. These are made for real and you can try them out!
