EVANGELION CROSSING EXPO will be held at the Hanshin Umeda main store from December 27, 2022 (Tuesday) to January 16, 2023 (Monday).
Evangelion Grand Exposition” held at Hanshin Umeda Main Store
Since the TV anime series began airing in 1995, “Neon Genesis Evangelion” has transcended the framework of manga, movies, games, and other media to create a one-of-a-kind worldview. This exhibition features “products” from the various events that have shaped Eva culture.
A total of 4,000 Eva products
The Hanshin Umeda main store, which will be the touring venue of the exhibition held at Shibuya Hikarie in Tokyo in July 2021, will also gather all kinds of “goods” and “things”. The exhibition will feature not only figures, but also traditional crafts, games, apparel, sundries, and collaborations with other characters and brands, totaling approximately 4,000 items, an overwhelming amount of Eva products.
The “Evangelion Hakone Complementary Map,” a sightseeing pamphlet produced in collaboration with the Hakone Tourist Association, “complements” scenes in Hakone that appear in the film, and a model of the first plane’s head, which was used as a drawing reference during animation production.
Some of the goods will be the largest ever
The “EVANGELION STORE,” which is located next to the exhibition, will also offer a large number of goods. The store offers one of the largest lineups ever, including goods exclusive to the Osaka venue, goods that will be newly released at the exhibition, and reprints of popular items from the past.
