Well, here’s the modern-day version!

The Terada Mokei team have created a stop-motion animation of the most famous intersection in the world — Shibuya Crossing in front of Shibuya Station, informally known as “Scramble Crossing”.

The animation features around 1,000 different “characters” called Genki-kun, made using paper models from the Terada Mokei architectural models. Look out for tiny buses, cars and more.

The animation was directed by Tomohiro Okazaki, with production direction by Naoki Terada.
