The world of "Tourabu" (abbreviation of "刀剣乱舞 [Touken Ranbu]"), which has been developed across various platforms, finally comes to life in this special exhibition! The first official event of its kind, "Touken Ranbu - Honmaruhaku -" opened in Fukuoka on Saturday 22nd July having previously been on display in Tokyo, Osaka, and Sendai.

"Touken Ranbu -ONLINE-" is a sword-themed game that sees its players bring famous blades to life, nurture the resulting warriors known as "刀剣男士 [Touken Danshi]," before putting together an army, and heading into battle. This game is said to have triggered a "Japanese sword" boom, which just continues to grow! The title originally started out a game, but has since spread across all kinds of media, including musicals, stage performances and anime, acquiring many new fans in the process.

We went along to the opening ceremony and got to take a sneak peak at the "Touken Ranbu - Honmaruhaku -" exhibition. Check-out our photo report to find-out what it looks like inside!
