Shishigami’s War Declaration in “Inuyashiki”

SEIBU SHINJUKU PePe and YUNIKA VISION in Shinjuku Ward is featured in the movie “Inuyashiki” (2018). The scene in which Hiro Shishigami (Takeru Sato) declares his fight against the Japanese citizens was filmed at this location.
‘Yamada Denki’s monitors as well as YUNIKA VISION appear in the movie. Huge monitors hanging off the side of buildings are often shown in movies. Until recently, the one at Shinjuku Alta was commonly used. For this movie, I wanted to show the monitors that are becoming the symbol of the new Shinjuku. They are also featured in the original work, so I really wanted to use YUNIKA VISION for the movie. Shinjuku is becoming more and more international and has been garnering interest as a filming location. I’m glad I was able to film the big battle in Shinjuku.’ (Shinsuke Sato, director of “Inuyashiki”)
