MOTHER Beads Charm – 2,300¥ / Magic Butterfly Only – 777¥Īs mentioned, some real treasures were also on display: Reproduction pixel art made with glass beads.

Nobuhiko Imagawa, the designer and art director of “MOTHER 3” and MIYUKI, a world-class bead designer collaboration. The vocal soundtrack from the first game was playing via overhead speakers with Pollyanna playing as I walked in, adding to the already pleasant atmosphere. His art style perfectly captures the spirit of the games, and looking at the pieces first hand brought memories of playing through each title rushing back as I walked through. Located all around the gallery are different pieces of A・MELICA’s work from different time periods, most of which are focused on the MOTHER series. They managed to brighten up the mandatory distancing with its own little MOTHER related touch, signs featuring the Giant Step Your Sanctuary location from MOTHER 2. Once I arrived on the 8th floor of Shibuya PARCO with the other fans, we were lined up outside of the gallery and asked to follow the standard COVID-19 prevention process around Tokyo before entering.

Being a massive fan of the series, I booked it over to SHIBUYA to be one of the first fans to check it out!

Today at the company’s HOBONICHIYOBI gallery inside of Shibuya PARCO another aspect of the project opened, a limited-time gallery featuring the art of longtime MOTHER series fan A・MELICA. Billed as an ongoing project with a variety of different aspects, we’ve seen an official anthology comic book featuring world-class artists, a new round of t-shirts, and the promise of more to come. Earlier this year Shigesato Itoi’s company, HOBO NIKKAN ITOI SHINBUN, surprised MOTHER / EARTHBOUND fans around the world with the announced of the HOBONICHI MOTHER PROJECT.
