Evangelion Creator, A Tokusatsu Fan

Non Genesis Evangelion
Unknown to many people, Hideaki Anno, creator of the famous Neon Genesis Evangelion anime series, had been a fan of tokusatsu, which greatly influenced his works from the Eva Units' time limit to monster invading Tokyo.

Hideaki Anno plans to exhibit some of great artifacts of tokusatsu movie and television making on "Hideaki Anno's Tokusatsu Museum," hosted by the Museum of Contemporary Art Tokyo July 10th to October 8th, including Studio Ghibli's new live-action short God Warrior Attacks Tokyo.

For the occasion, Hideaki Anno listed his five favorite tokusatsu works — based on their cultural significance and his own emotional attachment:

1. Godzilla (1954)
2. Mighty Jack (1968)
3. Ultraman (1966)
4. Ultra Seven (1967)
5. Return of Ultraman (1971)

Since the original Godzilla costumes were not well enough preserved to be used in the exhibit, it will still feature the fearful "Oxygen Destroyer." And while only 40% of Mighty Jack's famous battleship remained intact, but it was able to be restored.


Anno stated that in his opinion, the original Ultraman is the perfectly told giant hero story. The exhibit would also feature models used for Ultraman's flying scenes, his famous colored timer and plenty of items from the Ultraman productions.

Check out "Hideaki Anno's Tokusatsu Museum," at the Museum of Contemporary Art Tokyo, from July 10th to October 8th.
