Neo-Tokyo 3. The Angels. NERV. The Children. A few words are enough to bring to mind a world – at once dark and wonderful. And its powerful images too, of course: giant robots controlled by teenagers, bodies and technologies that transform, moments of pure hallucination.
Evangelion is one of the most powerful products of the Japanese imagination of the last half century, stuff that had as much impact as Star Wars had in the West. A story that unites two generations, thanks to the film saga that brought it to new audiences between 2007 and 2021, culminating in the Evangelion: 3.0+1.01 Thrice Upon a Time movie.
Octopus pays tribute to the cult saga, bringing for the first time EVA units on a 100% Made in Italy collection that combines the sci-fi icons of Evangelion and the tentacular icons of Octopus.
The Evangelion x Octopus capsule collection includes two hoodies and two T-shirts, elevated with high-quality silkscreen and reflective prints. The garments will be sold exclusively at the Octopus pop-up shop at Milan Games Week, Nov. 24-26, while supplies last ((Hall 15 coordinates H07 K10). A third hoodie, produced in an even more limited run, will be available only to the selected group of Octopus’ fans who hold the Evangelion X Octopus card.
100 cards have been produced. To find out if you are one of the very few deserving owners, check if you have received it via email.
