Gallery Zenon (Kichijoji, Tokyo) is currently hosting the "Fist of the North Star Original Artwork Exhibition RETURNS+ ~From the End of the Century to the Emperor~" from September 12th (Sat) to October 25th (Sun), 2026!
In this exhibition,It was held at four locations nationwide from October 2023 to April 2025.The precious original manuscripts hand-drawn by Tetsuo Hara, which were displayed at the "Fist of the North Star 40th Anniversary Grand Original Artwork Exhibition," are making a triumphant return to Kichijoji, Tokyo. The exhibition will be held in two parts, with a total of over 150 original drawings on display. Visitors can see up close the powerful brushstrokes and meticulous depictions that cannot be fully appreciated in print, showcasing the unique impact of the original manuscripts.
The first half covers the "Six Sacred Fists of Nanto Arc + Emperor Arc," and the second half covers the "Four Brothers of Hokuto and the Five Chariot Stars of Nanto Arc + Emperor Arc." Each half revisits beloved scenes that have transcended generations, from a different perspective.
Furthermore, this time, we go beyond where the "Fist of the North Star 40th Anniversary Grand Original Art Exhibition" ended with Raoh's ascension. We've added the "Emperor Arc," which depicts the continuation of the story, and will be exhibiting many original drawings that have never been displayed before. With an exhibition structure unique to "RETURNS+", we will deliver the story that fans have been waiting for. Some of the 3D exhibits that were popular at the 40th Anniversary Grand Original Art Exhibition will also be on display at the venue. You can enjoy the world of "Fist of the North Star" in three dimensions together with the original drawings.
Original merchandise will be available for purchase at the merchandise corner within the venue. Many new items, making their debut at this exhibition, will be on offer as souvenirs of your visit. Additionally, the adjoining cafe will offer collaborative menu items tailored to this exhibition. Enjoy a moment to "savor" the world of the artworks while viewing the exhibits.
