Full house & standing ovation for the third performance of the Death Note musical at the Barbican in London. Was a blast. Glad I could find some seats for me and my son!  😊 #anime #deathnote #musical #deathnotemusical

Live from Paris. Quite a beautiful sight on the aptly named "Avenue de le Grande Armée", that also finds renewed relevance in these troubled times... #14juillet #paris

Cannot leave Japan without a visit to the Eiffel Tower's little sister: the Tokyo tower (1958 - 332 m) 🙂 #tokyo #japan #japon

The grand-father of manga and anime - Hokusai - is celebrated at the Creative Museum of Tokyo. A large selection of his famed "mangas" (1814-1878) are on display and its easy to see how influential they have been 🙂 #mangas #anime #manga

Last Friday at #Japanexpo, I took part with Balak and Nao Hirasawa in a conference on the influence of Japan on French artists & the possible future collaborations between the two countries. The path we opened with #ObanStarRacers will hopefully soon lead to more, including Sav the World's own! 🙂

Last Tuesday was the 75th anniversary of Japan's membership to UNESCO, an important date that marked the gradual readmission of the country in international organizations. I was honoured to be a guest at the celebrations held in Paris for that occasion 🙂 #japan #Japon #nihon

Happy birthday to the ever beautiful Eiffel Tower. Exactly 136 years ago today, Gustave Eiffel climbed the 1710 steps of the monument and raised a giant French flag on top to mark its completion. I wish I could have witnessed it with my own eyes! 😊 #TourEiffel #EiffelTower

C’est avec émotion que j’apprends la disparition de Patricia Lyfoung, autrice de la bande dessinée « Rose Ecarlate », ici en 2000, collaborant à un film d'animation de Sav! The World Productions. Nous avions prévu l'année dernière de nous revoir prochainement. C’est trop injuste 😥

Eerie chimeras from the roof of the newly restored Notre-Dame cathedral I pictured this week. Did you know that unlike their gargoyle counterparts they were only added in the 19th century? 🙂

It was a pleasure to give great Japanese actor Koji Yakusho a friendly tour of the Eiffel Tower earlier this week. Since I discovered his work in Tampopo, and later in Unagi and many more, I’ve always been a great fan of his 😊 #KojiYakusho #TourEiffel #EiffelTower #Eiffel #Japan #Japin #役所広司

The decision to maintain the 2024 Olympic rings on the #EiffelTower continues to stir controversy (see my CNN interview here: t.co/TgLF7PZMy0) As a descendant, I think it was great during the games but am against keeping them there permanently. #toureiffel #paris #paris2024 #jeuxolympiques #olympics

Opposé au maintien permanent des anneaux Olympiques sur la #tourEiffel. C'était merveilleux pendant les jeux mais la tour doit pouvoir retrouver son aspect original & servir temporairement d'autres grandes causes à l'avenir! #Paris #EiffelTower #Paris2024 bit.ly/3Xvvv87

Anneaux olympiques sur la tour Eiffel: ce descendant de Gustave Eiffel s'oppose à leur installation définitive
Anne Hidalgo a annoncé que les anneaux olympiques installés sur la tour Eiffel allaient rester sur le monument, après la fin des Paralympiques. Une décision qui divise et ne plaît pas aux descendants ...

La ville de Levallois, où Gustave Eiffel eut ses usines et a été enterré, rend à son tour hommage au célébre ingénieur et scientifique au travers d'une belle exposition, au vernissage de laquelle j'ai pris la parole avant hier au nom des descendants Eiffel. A voir à la mairie jusqu'au 17 fév. 🙂
