Currently, Pink Panther’s 60th anniversary projects are being developed around the world. This time, a collaboration between Pink Panther and Japanese artists has been realized as a Japanese original project. We will expand new possibilities for the Pink Panther and deliver its appeal to a wide range of generations. The key visual is a collaboration illustration with Koji Morimoto, who has been active at the forefront of the Japanese anime industry since the dawn of the industry, and at the pop-up event, original illustrations drawn by Mr. Morimoto especially for this event will also be on sale. It has been decided. Furthermore, a collaboration between six up-and-coming illustrators who are gaining support from young people has also been realized. This is a pop-up event where you can enjoy a special collaboration between Pink Panther and artists from two different generations. In addition to existing Pink Panther goods, we will also sell collaboration goods with artists. Please look forward to new collaborations between Pink Panther and artists. ■Koji Morimoto Image

He was in charge of original drawings for TV series and movie animations, and first directed “Frankengear” in the omnibus movie “Robot Carnival” in 1987. In 1988, he served as assistant setting and animation director for “AKIRA” (directed by Katsuhiro Otomo), and in 1995 directed the first episode of the omnibus movie
“MEMORIES”, “With Her Thoughts”. In the same year, Ken Ishii’s music clip “EXTRA/KENISHII” attracted attention both domestically and internationally. The same work won “MTV DANCE VIDEO OF THE YEAR” in the UK. He has also worked on “BEYOND,” an episode of the omnibus DVD “Animatrix,” which is set in the world of the movie “The Matrix,” as well as music videos for artists such as Hikaru Utada and GLAY. When I think of the Pink Panther, the images that come to mind are sharp character designs and music. The comical Pink Panther and Inspector Clouseau move around to the unforgettable music. At that time, I remember being more excited about the cartoon animation works of Tex Avery and others than about Disney. The limited anime that they created while there was no budget for Japanese TV was an extension of that cartoon, and it influenced me in many ways. “Simple is the Best” I hope that I can meet many different Pink Panthers in the future. ■Guest artists (6 people) yukke (Illustrator) HP:
