It has come to the Japan Association for the 2025 World Exposition’s attention that a draft version of an illustration was mistakenly printed in the EXPO 2025 Osaka, Kansai, Japan OFFICIAL GUIDEBOOK (Japanese and English editions), against the intentions of the illustrator.
We sincerely apologise for any inconvenience caused to those who purchased the book and to all related parties. We also extend our deepest apologies to the illustrator for any upset caused.
We will insert a correction sheet with the completed illustration into the book, announce the correction on the Association’s website and JTB Publishing website, publish the completed illustration when the book is reprinted, and for the e-book version, replace the illustration with the completed version.
We sincerely apologise for this mistake.
