Dive into the World of Kishibe Rohan's Confession Room

The unique fusion of cinema and immersive experience is set to hit Kyoto as the anticipated event, "Kishibe Rohan: The Confession Room - An Alternative Confession," debuts in the Kansai region for the very first time. Running from August 9 to August 31, 2025, the event promises to transport visitors into a world intertwined with the cinematic universe of the acclaimed film, inspired by Hirohiko Araki's original work. The experience will be held in an abandoned house, cleverly transformed into a "confession room," and is expected to stimulate tourism and cultural engagement within the area, particularly in the picturesque city of Mukō, Kyoto.

Event Highlights

The Confession Room Emerges

Nestled in a serene yet eerie neighborhood in Mukō, this decrepit building will suddenly transform into the mystical "confession room." Guests will have the exclusive opportunity to revel in an immersive experience available only at this authentic location, offering a realism that can’t be matched by traditional forms of entertainment.

A Unique Narrative to Explore

Attendees will take on the role of a journalist seeking to uncover the mysterious confessions of Kishibe Rohan himself. This interactive story unfolds into an original branching path that goes beyond the movie's plot, inviting players to engage with a newly constructed narrative that resonates deeply with the original film’s themes.

Quick and Repeatable Engagements

Each session lasts approximately 30 to 40 minutes, accommodating up to four groups simultaneously. The design of the event allows for varied endings and storylines, encouraging guests to come back and experience different outcomes every time they visit. Both newcomers and seasoned participants will find something new to enjoy.

A Personal Touch from Kishibe Rohan

Depending on the choices made during your experience, guests may even receive a signed envelope personally addressed by Kishibe Rohan! This thrilling element adds a level of personal investment, making each attendee's journey distinct based on their unique "confession."

Exclusive Event Merchandise

Apart from the thrilling experiences, guests can also acquire unique merchandise themed around the film. Treasures include original bromides inspired by the movie and a Venetian mask-style keychain exclusive to participants of this Kyoto event, ensuring memories that participants can cherish.

Event Overview

"This is the story of your very own visit to the confession room." The event encapsulates an entirely original story inspired by the universe of "Kishibe Rohan: The Confession Room," establishing a game where you are the protagonist. In this eerily serene setting, participants will encounter unique puzzles and choices that only they can decipher, immersing them in an experience akin to stepping into a live-action version of a film.

Spanning from May 23 to July 31, the previous incarnation of this well-received event held at Aqua City Odaiba was a resounding success. Due to popular demand, hosting in Kansai has now been confirmed.
