A massive Spear of Longinus from the Evangelion anime has just appeared in front of Tokyo Skytree.

The spear was spotted with caution tape wrapping around the concrete area that was made to look like the Spear of Longinus struck the ground at high impact, leaving a pile of rubble. The spear is actually an extension of promotional installations for Evangelion: 3.0+1.0 Thrice Upon a Time. As the movie saw a substantial delay due to COVID-19, the Evangelion Tokyo Skytree Project decided to extend the activations as well as include a few new ones for the fans.

On top of this new attraction that’s free to see, the Tokyo Skytree will continue its thematic lighting based on the Unit-01, 00, 02, Mark.06, and Unit-08. Those in Toyko can witness the extended Evangelion Tokyo Skytree Project from now until May 31.
