Zero no Tsukaima: 20th-Anniversary Exhibition Comes to Osaka

The 20th-anniversary exhibition for the TV anime Zero no Tsukaima is coming to Osaka. From October 24 to November 15, 2026, the show runs at Rakubus Hall on the third floor of Abeno and follows its earlier stop in Tokyo in August.

As Anime!Anime! reports, the Osaka edition carries over the core content of the anniversary exhibition. This includes a life-size figure of Louise, a full-scale replica of the sword Derflinger, rare character and production materials, and an area featuring striking scenes and dialogue from the series. In total, more than 100 illustrations are set to be shown.

Another element is the audio guide newly recorded for the exhibition, with Rie Kugimiya as Louise and Satoshi Hino as Saito. According to the organizers, the recording runs more than 20 minutes. Visitors need a smartphone to use it; once launched, the guide remains available for 120 minutes.

Exhibition Moves From Tokyo to Osaka

The first edition of the "Zero no Tsukaima 20th Anniversary Exhibition" took place from August 10 to 30, 2026, at Sunshine City in Ikebukuro. For Osaka, the exhibition is planned daily from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m., with last entry at 6 p.m. A ticket costs 2,500 yen.

For the anniversary, an Art Collection Book featuring the displayed artwork will also be released, along with further items containing newly drawn illustrations.
