"Detective Conan: Crimson Love Letter" to be screened on September 22nd
This is the 21st film in the "Detective Conan" series, an animated adaptation of Gosho Aoyama's popular comic.
Written by mystery writer Okura Takahiro, this is a full-fledged mystery film set in Kyoto, and is a masterpiece that was the highest-grossing Japanese film of 2017.
The story is set in Osaka and Kyoto with "Hyakunin Isshu" as the keyword, and the "Western High School Detective" Heiji Hattori also appears. Together with Conan Edogawa (Shinichi Kudo), the two high school detectives from the east and west are gathered together.
One day, a sudden explosion occurs at Nichiuri TV, a symbol of Osaka. The station is recording a press conference for the Satsuki Cup, held by the Satsuki-kai, a leading organization in the Hyakunin Isshu Association of Japan, and the sudden incident causes great panic. As the building collapses with a thunderous roar, only the West's greatest detective, Heiji Hattori, and his childhood friend, Kazuha Toyama, are left behind, but Conan rushes to the scene and rescues them safely just in time.
The incident seems like a terrorist attack, but the perpetrator's motives are unknown, and no statement of responsibility has been made, making Conan and Heiji feel uneasy about this mysterious situation. In the midst of all this commotion, Conan and the others meet a woman who claims to be Heiji's fiancée. Her name is Ooka Momiji. Momiji, who claims to be "the one who proposed to Heiji when he was a child," is actually the high school champion of Hyakunin Isshu and is known as the future queen.
At the same time, the winner of the Satsuki Cup is murdered in a Japanese house in Arashiyama, Kyoto. At that time, the image of Momiji was projected on the monitor at the murder scene. There, a certain "song" was playing in the background.
"Pontocho Kaburenjo" held on September 14th
Pontocho Kaburenjo is a landmark of Pontocho, known as the venue for the Kamogawa Odori and Suimei-kai festivals.
Construction began in 1925 and was completed in 1927. It was designed by Kimura Tokusaburo, an engineer at Obayashi Corporation who was known as a master of theater architecture, having worked on the Osaka Shochikuza Theater (1923) and Tokyo Theater (1927). Made of reinforced concrete, it has four floors above ground and one below, and was praised at the time as "modern architecture with an oriental touch." In addition, on the roof of the Kaburenjo theater, there is a demon tile modeled after the bugaku mask of the Chinese Lanling King, which is placed as a guardian deity in prayer for the prosperity of Pontocho.
"Kyoto International Manga Museum" held on September 21st and 22nd
The Kyoto International Manga Museum, which opened in 2006, is Japan's first comprehensive manga museum, collecting valuable materials related to manga from Japan and abroad.
A joint venture between Kyoto City and Kyoto Seika University, the museum aims to collect, store, and display manga materials, which are currently attracting worldwide attention, conduct research on manga culture, and hold exhibitions and events based on these materials and research.
It is a new cultural facility that combines the functions of a museum and a library, and it preserves about 300,000 manga materials, ranging from caricature ukiyo-e prints from the Edo period to magazines from the Meiji, Taisho and early Showa periods, rental books from the postwar period to current popular works, as well as works from overseas. The results of research conducted based on these materials are presented and made public in the form of exhibitions, seminars and workshops.
The building utilizes the former Tatsuike Elementary School building, which was constructed in the early Showa period, and retains its original appearance. It also expresses the intention to take over the role of the elementary school, which has been a symbol of the local area for many years.
