TBS Television will be holding "VIVANT IMMERSIVE MISSION," an immersive TBS drama experience event that will allow viewers to experience the world of the currently airing Sunday drama "VIVANT," from Wednesday, September 16th to Friday, November 27th, 2026, at CREATIVE MUSEUM TOKYO in Kyobashi, Tokyo.
The Sunday drama series "VIVANT" went on hiatus after its broadcast on September 13th (Sunday). For fans who can't wait for the story to continue, we'll bring you an immersive experience where you can tour the actual sets used in the drama and take on top-secret missions from the perspectives of various characters such as the "Special Unit," "Public Security," and "Tent."
Furthermore, the venue will feature the "VIVANT EXTRA MISSION CAFE," a collaboration cafe offering original menu items inspired by memorable scenes and the world of the show, including the "fried rice that Drum ate" featured in episode 17. Event-exclusive merchandise, available only at the venue, will also be on sale.
It's not just about "watching" the drama. Immerse yourself in the world of the story, savor it, and take home a memento of it. Enjoy this special experience that fans won't want to miss, allowing you to immerse yourself in the world of 'VIVANT' even while waiting for the broadcast to resume.
■Even during the broadcast hiatus, the story of 'VIVANT' continues! Embark on a top-secret mission on the real sets used in the show.
The venue will feature sets that were actually used in filming the drama, such as the "operations room" in room 303 of the Bukinist Bookstore in Azerbaijan, which Nogi visited in episode 18, the "Foreign Affairs Section 4 of the Public Security Department of the Metropolitan Police Department" where numerous investigative meetings were held, and the "tent dungeon" where Nogi and Kurosu were imprisoned in the first season.
Visitors will use the smartphone app "Auris" to choose from four courses: "Special Team," "Public Security," "Tent," and "Finding Drumming Buddies." They will then take on missions set up within the venue from different perspectives.
Familiar characters such as Yusuke Nogi (Masato Sakai), Mamoru Nozaki (Hiroshi Abe), Nokoru (Kazunari Ninomiya), Shun Kurosu (Tori Matsuzaka), Kotaro Shinjo (Ryo Ryusei), Ari (Takashi Yamanaka), Drum (Drum Tomie/CV: Megumi Hayashibara), Yutaro Sano (Yajuro Bando), Shota Tojo (Gaku Hamada), Satomi Sakurai (Midori Kimura), and Toshihiko Nagano (Fumiyo Kohinata) will guide you through the mission with their voices. Once you have completed all the tests, AI Hayato (CV: Minami Takayama) will calculate your aptitude score.
What's your aptitude for? "Special Unit," "Public Security," or "Tent"?
Guided by the voices of a stellar cast of 12 actors, you can enjoy a thrilling and immersive experience as you advance the story through your own choices.
■Episode 17 was a hot topic! "Drum's Fried Rice," where you can enjoy "that taste," makes its appearance.
The "VIVANT EXTRA MISSION CAFE," a collaboration cafe adjacent to the venue, will offer limited-time original menu items that express memorable scenes from the film and the grand worldview of "VIVANT."
The menu includes "Nozaki and Drum's Shinshi Prison Meal Set," which recreates the fried rice and steamed buns that Drum ate in the prison where he and Drum were held captive by Shinshi, and "The Desert Tiramisu of the Beginning – Feel the Wind of Barca," which is instantly recognizable to VIVANT fans as being inspired by the vast desert that symbolizes the beginning of the story. The menu was supervised by the drama production team after repeated taste tests. Not only the taste, but also the presentation and naming are packed with VIVANT-esque details that fans will surely appreciate.
Please enjoy this other "EXTRA MISSION," which allows you to savor the lingering emotions of the story even after completing your mission.

■What is the Sunday drama series 'VIVANT'?
The Sunday drama "VIVANT," which aired on TBS in the summer of 2023, captivated many viewers with its unpredictable storyline, star-studded cast, stunning visuals, and grand scale, becoming a social phenomenon. Centered around the protagonist, Yusuke Nogi, played by Masato Sakai, the drama features a complex interplay of motives from various organizations and individuals, including the "Special Unit," "Public Security," and the international terrorist organization "Tent." The unpredictable plot, where it was unclear who was friend and who was foe, generated considerable buzz.
The total number of viewers for the first season's 10 episodes, including time-shifted viewing, exceeded 60 million. It won numerous awards, including the Grand Prix in the serial drama category at the "Tokyo Drama Awards 2024," first place in the drama category at the "Yahoo! Search Awards 2023," and a Special Award at the "TVer Awards 2023." The highly anticipated second season began airing in July 2026. The epic story that continued from the previous season has started again, attracting even more attention.

<Synopsis>
"Is that man just an ordinary office worker, or is he—"
The unassuming colleague who sits next to you at work. The friendly neighbor you pass every morning.
What if they were spies with the nation's highest level of combat capabilities?
— "The Special Unit." It is a top-secret intelligence organization of the Self-Defense Forces that is rumored to actually exist within Japan.
(Incidentally, in a parliamentary response in 2013, the government at the time denied the existence of a separate unit.)
The protagonist, Yusuke Nogi, is an ordinary office worker. One day, he suddenly finds himself caught up in a 13 billion yen erroneous money transfer incident, and is thrown into a panic.
Everyone would sympathize with him as he wanders the desert. But as the story progresses, you begin to have doubts.
"Who exactly is this man?"
At the end of the adventure lies a lonely battle to protect Japan and a bloody destiny. A shocking twist that will deceive everyone.
Can you uncover this man's true identity?
