Voice actress Yuri Ehara's 10th anniversary exhibition is packed with merchandise collected by fans over the past 11 years

Yuri Ehara , a voice actress who plays the role of Chiwa in the anime 'Ohenro' and Aoi Kanzaki in ' Demon Slayer: Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba' as the leader of the unit 'Gildrops ' and who is also a staff member of the animation production company ufotable , is celebrating the 10th anniversary of her debut, so an exhibition event by a private support group was held near the Machi Asobi vol.28 venue.

Yuri Ehara's private fan club, Eha LOVE, will be holding a commemorative exhibition to celebrate the 10th anniversary of Yuri Ehara's debut, in conjunction with Machi Asobi Vol. 28.

The event will be held during the Machi Asobi period.
The location is a rented store next to Meriken-ya in Kagoyacho (see map).

The exhibition event is taking place at one of the Machi★Asobi venues, located southwest of 'Cornet Izumi Square' in Higashi-Shinmachi Arcade. Corne Izumi Square is in the background of the photo.

The entrance to the exhibition hall looks like this.

The sign facing the passageway reads 'Exhibition commemorating 10 years since Yuri Ehara's debut.' Although it is being held in conjunction with Machi★Asobi, it is not an official event, so it is not mentioned on flyers or other materials.

The venue was packed with Ehara-related goods. At the very front was a character POP signed by the three members of TEAM OHENRO from the anime 'Ohenro' (Yamashita Nanami, who plays Mao, Ehara, who plays Chiwa, and Takanashi Marika, who plays Megumi).

The goods are lined up in roughly chronological order, starting from the one closest to the entrance. Ehara applied to be a staff member at the Machi★Asobi Cafe in Kokura, Kitakyushu, and was selected to play the role of Chiwa in the anime 'Ohenro.' She made her debut in the spring of 2014, so this year marks her 11th anniversary since her debut, but since the 2024 Machi★Asobi event has been postponed, they are holding a 10th anniversary exhibition again.

The first stage of 'Ohenro' was held as an event where photography was allowed.

The 2016 'Awa Odori Posters' came in two designs that combined anime and live action: 'Ohenro' x TEAM OHENRO and 'The Idolmaster x Nakamura Eriko.' They were also available as a return gift for 'Hometown Tax Donation.'

Also on display was a signed tumbler that was the prize draw at the talk event

for the Ministry of the Environment x 'Ohenro.' Reusable Cup Experience Stamp Rally held at Machi★Asobi vol.17.

I don't think there are many artists who display 'stamp books' as related goods. The 'How to make a stamp book' on display was also handwritten by Ehara.

The creation of the prayer book took place at Petit★Asobi vol.7.

The exhibit also included a handwritten self-portrait of 'Yuripan' by Ehara, the artist's original creator.

Also on display was a congratulatory colored paper by Masato Nagamori, the character designer for 'Ohenro.' This colored paper is scheduled to be handed over to Ehara himself by the end of Machi★Asobi vol.28, so if you want to see the real thing, be sure to come to the exhibition venue early.
