Housed in a converted elementary school, this museum turns manga from guilty pleasure into respected art form. The 'Wall of Manga' displays 50,000 volumes you can pull from the shelves and read on the lawn or in the halls — it's the world's most comfortable library for graphic novel fans. Beyond the reading rooms, galleries trace manga's historical development from Edo-era scrolls to modern masterworks, with artist workshops on weekends. The translated collection keeps growing, so even non-Japanese readers will find plenty to lose themselves in.
