Fujio Pro 1997 Exhibition Guide

The 1997 exhibition guide for Fujio Akatsuka and Fujio Pro was a special booklet made to inform viewers further about the works on display (which would be proudly displayed at the Akatsuka museum until its 2020 closure) and about his overall career at the time.

Among the art exhibited would happen to be some samples of works that have never seen reprint to this day, as well as a new short "Nyarome" comic by Akatsuka and his two active assistants at the time (Makoto Iwasaki and En Yamamura).

## Overview

The booklet is a time capsule of Akatsuka's output up to the late 1990s, but also infamously known for showcasing the lack of record-keeping that Fujio Pro and other sources had done about his works even in his lifetime; many series and one-shots are missing from the timeline of his "complete works", and some have unknown publication dates or magazines.

The watercolor profile illustrations for several characters seen in the book were provided by the assistants, which leads to a sliding scale of how on-model and recognizable to outright off-model they would be. The characters also don't have their source series identified, leading to viewers having to guess in the case of lesser-known designs, though one can also spot various one-shot guests from *Bakabon* in the mix or characters that appeared in unreprinted material (such as Satsumaimo from his spotlight chapter in Tamanegi Tama-chan).
