In commemoration of the 40th anniversary of the popular anime "Mobile Suit Gundam", a full-scale moving "Gundam" was held in Yokohama City from the 19th, before the opening ceremony was held on the night of the 18th.
At Yamashita Pier in Yokohama Port, the same 18-meter-high moving "Gundam" that appeared in the popular anime "Mobile Suit Gundam" broadcast from 1979 will be open to the public from the 19th.
Prior to this, the opening ceremony was held on the night of the 18th, and the illuminated Gundam was released to the press.
At the ceremony, the illuminated Gundam moved its legs and arms as if walking, and a powerful figure shining against the background of the night sky was shown.
In addition, the rock band "LUNA SEA", who was in charge of the theme song for the 40th anniversary project, also attended the ceremony and performed live.
The moving "Gundam" will be open to the public from 19th to March 31st next year, but in order to prevent infectious diseases, we will thoroughly measure the temperature of visitors and encourage them to wear masks, and we will restrict admission depending on the congestion situation. It means that there are things to do.
