Nier creator Yoko Taro lost his iconic mask at Anime Expo 2023:
The mask apparently cost him $120, which Taro thought was cheap considering how last-minute his need for it was. However, its “super cheap” price tag came with the caveat that there’s a high probability that it’s cursed. His running theory is that it’s either possessed by the spirit of the store owner’s grandmother or a cousin who apparently died in 1945.“It’s gotta be possessed or something like that. … It has to be cursed or possessed. There’s something going on with it,” Taro said.
When I suggested the mask might be good luck instead of being cursed, given its leprechaun-like appearance, Taro looked at me in surprise, saying “Is that what it is? A leprechaun mask?” I said it kind of has a St. Patrick’s Day vibe, but that didn’t seem to change his mind about it being cursed.To his credit, the soullessness of the mask makes it leagues creepier than Emil’s mask, so he might be on to something.
For the time being, Taro’s staff is floating the idea that it’s probably in his best interest to return the mask to where they got it from. Whether it’s in fear of it actually being cursed or not they did not specify.is covering everything at Anime Expo 2023, including big announcements at panels and exclusive one-on-one interviews with the industry’s biggest creators.
