Capcom and Tezuka Productions are teaming up once again for the third iteration of the Capcom vs. Tezuka Characters art exhibit. This time, the event will be held at the Tokiwaso Manga Museum and Tokiwaso Street Showa Retro Museum from July 20th to November 24th.

The exhibit will feature unique collaborative illustrations of Osamu Tezuka characters drawn by Capcom creators and Capcom characters drawn by Tezuka Productions creators. While fighting games are a major highlight this time around, new pieces inspired by Mega Man will also be included. In fact, you can see Mega Man, Rush, and a Servbot in the event's main visual. Mega Man and Astro Boy also form the "heart" of the event's logo.

If you're in Tokyo during the event, you can find more information here. Ticket reservations will start on June 20th at 2pm JST.

Unseen Rockman 8 and Power Battle Design Docs Shown at "Capcom vs. Tezuka" Exhibit

One of the main selling points of the Capcom vs. Osamu Tezuka Characters art exhibit was the chance to take a peek at rare design documents and other production materials that trace Capcom and Osamu Tezuka's history.

A 12-page design document from Rockman: The Power Battle was shown at the first exhibit at the Osamu Tezuka Memorial Hall in Takarazuka (Hyōgo). Later on, when the exhibit premiered in Tokyo for a little over two weeks, a 22-page design document from Rockman 8 was shown for the very first time.

With the prohibition of taking photos from inside the exhibition and the ongoing pandemic, there was concern that we wouldn't be able to take a peek at all the goodies inside. But that fear is now dispelled with the announcement of an artbook to immortalize the exhibit -- forever!
