Starting July 1, 2026, a new travel option will enhance the experience for visitors heading from Kyoto to the anime-themed “NARUTO&BORUTO Shinobi-Zato” park on Awaji Island. This development involves a direct bus service that offers a round-trip journey from Kyoto Station to Awaji I.C., bundled with admission to the attraction. By eliminating the need for transfers, the package aims to simplify the travel logistics for both domestic and international tourists seeking a seamless day trip.
The scenic bus journey, which takes approximately 90 minutes, provides a picturesque route across bridges and along the coast, culminating near the anime park. Once there, visitors can enjoy the park’s main attractions, such as the “Heaven’s Scroll (Ten no Maki)” three-dimensional maze and the “Earth Scroll (Chi no Maki)” mission rally. The package will be available for weekday travel, though it will not be valid during major holiday periods. Ticket prices are set at 8,200 yen for adults and 4,250 yen for children, inclusive of taxes, with sales facilitated through online platforms.
Upon purchase, travelers will need to exchange their tickets at the Kyoto Bus Ticket Center. This direct bus service is expected to appeal particularly to anime enthusiasts and tourists eager to explore a unique blend of Japanese culture and outdoor entertainment, as it mitigates the complexity of planning a visit to this popular destination.
At “NARUTO&BORUTO Shinobi-Zato,” fans of the ninja anime series can immerse themselves in a world inspired by the Hidden Leaf Village, complete with character displays, training activities, and interactive experiences. Situated within Nijigen no Mori, the park combines elements of Japanese anime culture with engaging island attractions, catering to a diverse audience of enthusiasts.
Nijigen no Mori itself is known for attractions based on famous Japanese entertainment franchises, offering interactive experiences amidst the natural beauty of Awaji Island. The introduction of the direct bus service from Kyoto is anticipated to enhance accessibility to the park, making it an attractive option for those seeking a distinctive travel experience in Japan during the summer months.
