This fall, a Neon Genesis Evangelion bullet train will begin service in Japan. If you thought the outside was something else, wait until you see the inside.


This is more than a fancy wrapping. Inside, the train’s first two cars are Evangelion themed.

According to Tetsudo Shimbun, there are Evangelion Unit-01 themed seats in the second car (see above concept art).


In the first car, there’s an Evangelion display with a diorama, and a cockpit. Which is incredible.

The Evangelion bullet train will run between Osaka and Fukuoka until spring 2017.
