At Tokyo’s Belluna Dome, The Weeknd brought out Yoko Takahashi to debut a new track built around the Neon Genesis Evangelion theme, with visuals by Yoko Taro.
The track samples Takahashi’s “A Cruel Angel’s Thesis,” and Tesfaye used the moment to confirm that the Weeknd name is not being retired.
The stadium production has grossed over $440 million this year, as demand forces an expanded Asian itinerary and a five-night Wembley residency.
