A Collaboration at the Historic Kyoto National Museum! Explore Ancient History with Juufuutei Raden × The Tale of Genji: Radiant Culture of the Japanese Imperial Court!

The Tale of Genji is a long novel written by Murasaki Shikibu, a woman who lived in the middle of the Heian period. It is said to be Japan's oldest full-length novel!

It is famous for the love stories between the main character, Hikaru Genji, and various women. It is also a popular subject in Noh, a traditional Japanese performing art.

This collaboration between Juufuutei Raden and the special exhibition The Tale of Genji: Radiant Culture of the Japanese Imperial Court seems to focus on The Tale of Genji in the world of Noh!

This time, hololive member Raden-Chan is introducing the exhibition as its ambassador! She explains the appeal of the works through special announcements that can only be heard at the venue. There are also original collaboration goods!

The overall theme is Noh, but it's great to see goods featuring both regular-proportion character illustrations and cute chibi-style illustrations!

I hope this collaboration inspires you to learn more about The Tale of Genji and discover what kind of story it is!

And of course, don't forget to check out the cute collaboration goods featuring Raden-Chan!
