Rebuild of Evangelion Anime Films to Feature at Yamaguchi Center for Arts and Media
The films will be shown next to the Hideaki Anno Exhibition in the same center
The Hideaki Anno Exhibition has been touring around Japan over the last year, having started in Tokyo in late 2021. Finally, the exhibition landed in Yamaguchi prefecture, the home prefecture of Anno, at the Yamaguchi Prefectural Art Museum
and only a stone's throw away from Ube City, the city Anno grew up in and served as a feature in the latest Evangelion film.
