posted on by Jennifer Sherman
"Hirohiko Araki JoJo Exhibition: Ripples of Adventure," an exhibition celebrating the 30th anniversary of Hirohiko Araki's JoJo's Bizarre Adventure manga, opened to the public at The National Art Center, Tokyo on August 24. Various displays are promoting the exhibit, and Twitter users took note of the new scenery in Tokyo this week.
A wall mural inside Shinjuku Station debuted on Monday. The mural uses the series' "dododo" sound effect to create the faces of the franchise's successive "JoJos."

Tokyo's Mercedes me store locations in Roppongi and Haneda are also collaborating with the exhibit. During the exhibit period, the two stores have special character window displays.

A special "Mercedes-Benz C-Class JOJO concept" "DoDoDo Car" is also on display at both locations. Fans who tweet pictures of the cars with the campaign hashtags have a chance to win one of five miniature models of the car.

In addition, the Mercedes me location in Roppongi is offering a themed menu at its Downstairs Coffee and Upstairs cafés. Guests can receive one of two collaboration coasters or placemats if they order a designated drink or food item, respectively.
"Hirohiko Araki JoJo Exhibition: Ripples of Adventure" is running until October 1. A special project for the exhibit revealed JoJo's Bizarre Adventure fan demographics earlier this month.
