Museum
Toei Animation Museum
The studio that animated Dragon Ball, Sailor Moon, One Piece and Kitaro, with a free museum on the ground floor.
A museum on the ground floor of Toei Animation's Oizumi studio, covering the studio's television and film work from the 1950s onward. Rotating exhibitions focus on particular titles, and the permanent displays cover the studio's major series. Toei animated Dragon Ball, Sailor Moon, One Piece, GeGeGe no Kitaro and Pretty Cure.
Why it is worth it
It is free, and it is the actual working studio — this is where the animation was made, not a licensed exhibit.
When to go
Quiet.
Good to know
Closed Wednesdays and open only 11:00-16:00, which is a short window — plan around it. The current exhibition rotates, so check what is on before travelling if you are coming for a specific series. It is a 15-minute walk from the station.
