This project has been recognized by the Guinness World Records™
as the "Largest architectural projection-mapped display
(permanent)" and has attracted over 200,000 visitors in the first 3
months since the start of the show, on February 25, 2024.
On weekends and holidays, the show has been showing the work
"Godzilla: Attack on Tokyo" featuring the world-famous Godzilla,
who is celebrating his 70th birthday this year! The 100-meter tall
mighty Godzilla, the same one from the "VS Series" films, is
projected at life-size scale onto the wall of the Metropolitan
Government Building, and his breathtaking fight with the new
anti-Godzilla weapon "Super X2 modified" is a must-see.
The show also features “Ukiyo,“ a Japanese-style content
inspired by Ukiyo-e paintings. Ukiyo-e paintings are works of art
developed during the Edo period (1603-1868) and which depict
various aspects of daily life with vivid and delicate colors. The
term "ukiyo" itself refers to a world that is constantly changing.
Using visuals generated by AI learning and CG by the creators of
the show facilitated a connection between the world of Ukiyo-e
paintings and contemporary pop culture.
Enjoy this projection mapping show where you can experience
Japanese culture on the world's largest canvas.
