Fancy a Trip To Tokyo 3?
Mar 29th
Wanting to visit Tokyo 3, the famous place where the world of Shin Seiki Evangelion was centered in? Well you can, in a way. Tokyo 3 is based upon the real life Hakone in Japan, and the Hakone Tourism Committee, under supervision of Studio Khara and Gainax decided to cash in on that fact by releasing around 10,000 pamphlets, aptly titled “Evangelion Hakone Complementation Map” (ヱヴァンゲリヲン箱根補完マップ)”
Situated in Kanagawa, the map of Hakone, sorry, I mean Tokyo 3 will give fans a chance to visit all the famous places that was featured in the series. One might wonder if they also have a large hole (geofront) underneath the city. The map also suggest the best routes to go to all of these places, which is a good way to get some of these fans exercising without them knowing it.
