A walk through the mind of artist Mizuki Shigeru as you discover his life and work at Mizuki Shigeru Museum, Sakaiminato City, Tottori Prefecture. After you have walked up and down the famous road dedicated to this artist you have to make a stop at this museum that takes you deeper into his psyche. It will make you think how a person can create monsters that are grotesque and yet at the same time kind of cute.
