クレしんコラボの期間だったため、石ノ森が原作の漫画やアニメを知らないような若い家族連れが多く来館していた。展示は石ノ森章太郎の作品をほぼ網羅しており、アラフィフやアラカンの大人なら懐かしさをおぼえるもの。さらに最上階には、震災後のリニューアル時に寄せられた国内の有名漫画家たちのサイン入り色紙が展示されており圧巻。公式サイトには館の駐車場は存在しないような書き方になっているが、2024年9月に訪問した際は、館の横に臨時の駐車場（ただし未舗装）が設けられており、20台ほど駐車できるようだった。なお、一部の福利厚生サービスと提携しており、会員証を提示すると入館料が150円引きになる。

熊本地震の復興イベントでシージェッター海斗を知ってからいつか行ってみたいと思っていた場所でした。念願叶ってサイボーグ００９の６０周年とシージェッター海斗２０周年のアニバーサリーイヤーに伺う事が出来ました！子どもは石ノ森先生作品を知りませんがとても楽しんでおり、親子共々充実した時間を過ごす事ができました。展示が充実しておりすべて堪能する事が出来ませんでしたので、また必ず遊びに行きたいです。近所にあれば間違いなく年間パスポートを購入するほど、素晴らしい場所でした。

連休に行きました。午前中、早めの時間にも関わらずそれなりに混雑。付近の道路は新しいので古いナビには乗っていない所もあり、道路にある表示にしたがったほうがいいてす。前の駐車場はあまり広くなくて満車になると、橋手前の物産館？の近くの駐車場に案内されるみたいです。自分は行ったときにわからなくてはじめから手前の↑駐車場に停めて歩いていきましたが、どのみち満車だったみたいでした。館内はバリアフリーになっていて車いすでも問題なく回れます。なつかしい特捜系の展示があったり楽しめました、カフェも有って限定メニューがあるようですがかなりならんでいて諦めました。行った時はクレヨンしんちゃんの展示を、企画展でやっていました。障害者手帳での減免あり。
