Let’s go for a ride down memory lane with a new version of one of the singer’s biggest hits.
Hikaru Utada
J-pop megastar’s new album is available for pre-order now, will include themes from Evangelion and To Your Eternity anime.
J-pop megastar returns to the central Japan mountain range with “Dare ni mo Iwanai” (“I Won’t Tell Anybody”).
Hikaru Utada’s anniversary cover album is out next week, and to celebrate, Evangelion co-director Kazuya Tsurumaki has made this music video for the Japanese American artist’s song ‘Beautiful World’.
The resulting video is made of beautifully spliced-together Evangelion clips, and it fits Utada’s track perfectly.
