Octopus x Neon Genesis Evangelion

16 May 2025 | Alice Corbari | Industry News

Evangelion x Octopus is a collectible capsule, created in collaboration with Starbright Licensing, that blends the iconic ’90s anime with a modern streetwear aesthetic.

Neon Genesis Evangelion once again takes over the collective imagination with an exclusive new capsule from Octopus.

The drop draws deeply from the most iconic visuals of the anime series, starting with a zip hoodie featuring an original illustration by Hiramatsu Tadashi. Following it are two hoodies: the first inspired by the Second Impact, the second dedicated to Angel Kaworu. Also included is a jersey showcasing one of the most powerful frames in the entire saga: the Wings of Light from Unit-01.

To complete the collection, a true collector’s piece: a ceramic incense holder produced in limited numbers, containing a hidden quote that only the most devoted fans—those who’ve experienced every frame of Evangelion as a revelation—will recognize.

The capsule will be available exclusively at the Octopus pop-up store on May 9 and 10, in very limited quantities. Online Drop 15th May.

The capsule collection was developed in collaboration with the agency Starbright Licensing
