Fans of anime and VTuber content will soon be able to experience a crossover between the MONOGATARI Series and hololive’s Secret Society holoX. The collaboration, titled X Monogatari -Batsu Monogatari-, is scheduled to open on January 3, 2027, at BEAM Gallery in Shibuya, Tokyo.
The exhibition will bring together the two franchises through specially created illustrations, exclusive merchandise and interactive experiences. Organisers also plan to transform the venue into an immersive environment where visitors can explore elements of both worlds.
X Monogatari Exhibition to Feature Exclusive Artwork and Merchandise
The upcoming event will showcase collaboration illustrations created specifically for X Monogatari -Batsu Monogatari-. Visitors will also have the opportunity to purchase original merchandise featuring elements from the MONOGATARI Series and Secret Society holoX.
Rather than focusing only on artwork displays and shopping, the exhibition is designed to offer a broader experience for fans of both franchises.
Further details about the merchandise and exhibition displays have not yet been provided in the available announcement.
Immersive Storytelling Across the Venue
One of the main features of the collaboration will be an interactive story experience that uses the entire exhibition space.
The organisers are also planning immersive spatial presentations intended to engage visitors’ senses and bring the settings and atmosphere of both properties to life.
These elements are expected to make the event more than a conventional exhibition, allowing attendees to experience the collaboration through the venue’s overall presentation.
