Leading Manga Creators Partner for Noto & Taiwan Quake Charity Auction – Interest

Auction pieces currently on display at Tokyo’s Former Residence of Theodora Ozaki

On New Years Day and April 3, the Noto Peninsula, Japan and Hualien City, Taiwan were devastated by powerful earthquakes. While life is slowly returning to some semblance of normalcy, help is still needed in both locations. Many people and companies have pitched in for relief, and from August 23 to September 30, the Former Residence of Theodora Ozaki in Tokyo has partnered with an amazing list of manga creators and Monobank to run a charity to help the residents of the Noto Peninsula and Hualien City.

Following the announcement, the museum posted 40 of the original illustrations displayed at the exhibition:

While it’s not explicitly stated, it appears the charity auction for the autographs is limited to residents of Japan. The museum’s website states those who register for the auction must provide proof of identification. Listed among the examples are driver’s license, my number card, passport, health insurance card, and resident registration card. Although it’s possible to obtain a driver’s licenses or passports of your nation of residence or origin (for passports), my number cards and resident registration cards are only issued in Japan. It’s a real shame if the auction is limited to Japan residents as well, considering how many manga fans there are all over the world.
