The 10th anniversary exhibit of Sumikkogurashi was held at Seibu Ikebukuro during Golden Week 2022. There were lots of character/theme intro displays, with plenty of photo spots for your plushies. Manuscripts for both picture books (“Sorairo no Mainichi” and “Itsudemo Tonarini”), sketches for various themes, and even some of the very first sample plushies were on display. I was surprised to find out Obake-chan was blue at first…
