"Lines of EVANGELION: The Exhibition" Over 500 Precious Drawings Debut in Taiwan

Since its broadcast in 1995, the classic animated work "Neon Genesis Evangelion" has become an important work influencing global anime and pop culture with its strong apocalyptic aesthetics, profound psychological descriptions, and highly recognizable visual language. Following the enthusiastic response at the Hong Kong station, "Lines of EVANGELION: The Exhibition" officially announced its relocation to Taipei from August 14 to October 4, 2026, to be grandly exhibited at Shin Kong Mitsukoshi Taipei Xinyi Place A9, 9F. Pre-sale tickets will also go on sale simultaneously.

This exhibition takes "lines" as its core concept, focusing on the important visual elements that construct the worldview of "Neon Genesis Evangelion." From character outlines, EVA unit structures, to storyboards and art backgrounds, the exhibition features over 500 precious drawings, setting materials, and animation production materials provided by Studio khara (株式会社カラー), including valuable original manuscripts by core creators such as Kazuya Tsurumaki, Mahiro Maeda, and Ikuto Yamashita. Audiences will be able to experience firsthand how the production team meticulously constructed the unique worldview of "Neon Genesis Evangelion" with every stroke.

The exhibition content covers a large number of hand-drawn original animation cels, background art settings, and important production materials from the "Rebuild of Evangelion" series, fully presenting the creative process of "Neon Genesis Evangelion" from draft to animation. Audiences can also glimpse the charm of hand-made production in the golden age of animation from the brushstrokes, correction marks, and composition details in the drawings.
