HYPEBEASTさんのインスタグラム写真 - (HYPEBEASTInstagram)「A real-life Spear of Longinus as seen in the 'Evangelion' anime has been unveiled at the city of Ube, in Japan’s Yamaguchi Prefecture, which also happened to be the hometown of the franchise’s creator, Hideaki Anno.⁠ ⁠ This isn’t the first time the Spear of Longinus has been brought to life in such impactful proportions. Back in 2021, a glossy red iteration was displayed in front of the Tokyo Skytree to promote the final film, 'Evangelion: 3.0+1.0 Thrice Upon a Time.'⁠ ⁠ The anime’s emblematic Spear of Longinus is characterized by a double-helical-shaped and two-pointed trident structure. The real-life iteration faithfully recreates the iconic piece in towering proportions. Approximately 22 feet tall, the piece was revealed to be part of a collaboration event between the city and the iconic anime franchise.⁠ ⁠ For those who are looking to visit, the Spear of Longinus will remain on display til January 8, 2024.⁠ Photo: tokiwakouen (Twitter)⁠ ⁠」11月29日 1時04分
