Have you ever dreamed of becoming an anime creator? An anime production experience lets you do just that—no animation skills required!

In Tokyo, you can now learn the actual process behind your favorite anime shows through a hands-on, two-hour workshop. This experience isn’t just for artists—it’s for anyone who wants to dive deeper into Japan’s most iconic pop culture.

Step Into the World of Anime Creation

At MANGA DOJO in Ikebukuro, professional animators guide you through the basic steps of anime production, from concept to movement.

You’ll discover:

How characters are drawn frame by frame
How animation “cels” are created and timed
The traditional tools used in the anime industry
How your favorite anime scenes are brought to life

You’ll even draw and animate your own mini-scene during the workshop!

What Makes This Experience Special?

This isn’t a museum tour or a lecture—it’s an interactive class taught by a working professional in the anime industry. You get to use real tools like:

Light boxes
Peg bars
Specialized animation paper
Model sheets used by studios

It’s a rare chance to experience what it’s like to be part of Japan’s animation world.

Is It Suitable for Beginners?

Absolutely. No drawing or animation background is needed.

English or Chinese interpretation is provided during the class, so even if you don’t speak Japanese, you’ll be fully supported and can ask questions freely.

Whether you’re a solo traveler, a couple, or a family, this experience is designed to be fun, educational, and creative for everyone.

Why You Should Try It

Anime has influenced global entertainment for decades. Experiencing how it’s made gives you a deeper appreciation for the art—and lets you become a creator for a day.

You’ll leave not just with memories, but with your own handmade anime sequence.
