A Nonpartisan Parliamentary Association aiming to open a base facility to offer information about Japanese manga and anime, tentatively called “National Manga Center,” held a general meeting in Tokyo yesterday.
Acclaimed anime/tokusatsu director Hideaki Anno (Evangelion, Shin Godzilla) was invited as a guest speaker to appeal the necessity of a place to preserve important materials.
I hope to preserve as many as those old materials, that are treasures to us, in a public place,” Anno said to the members.
