Tottori is a prefecture in western Japan famous mostly for some really large sand dunes and not much else. Well, actually it’s also the birthplace of many famous manga writers and artists like Shigeru Mizuki, leading to the creation of promanga organization, Manga Kingdom Tottori, whose goal is to make Tottori a funner place through manga.
Their most recent project is an exhibition dedicated to international comics called Tottori Manga Dream World that spans three venues around Tottori. Also, throughout the latter half of 2012, they will be hosting a special exhibit featuring Japan’s favorite Disney Character, Stitch.
