While entirely original and thoroughly Japanese, Sazae-san popularity in Japan is comparable to the American strip Peanuts. Hasegawa was also an art collector, and her collection along with additions by her sister Mariko is housed in the museum. The museum showcases original drawings, clay dolls, and paintings, as well as works by Western and Japanese artists.
• Walk for about 7 minutes from Sakura-shimmachi Station in Tokyu Den-en-toshi Line via Sazae-san Street. • Located in 1-30-6 Sakurashimmachi, Setagaya-ku, Tokyo.
