Hidenori Matsubara will be leading the animation team as well.
Let's not forget that Hayashibara just came out of retirement again, too. Might as well grab her for it while she can still belt out Rei noises. [/url] |

I agree with you, thought EVA has been milked ( which kept a great studio alive, and got fans what they wanted.. well some fans ... ) it doesn't mean that Anno's work wont be a nice title, thought i rather see him write scenario for a new project, but i'll be looking forward for this one too, I am absloutly deligted to hear Anno is writing a scenario! love his works! |

Hate to bring this up but...
ICv2 and Anime News Service (9/6/2006 6:46PM EDT) both said that the movies are a "remake". |

Right. "zenben" should be translated as "first part". |

PLEASE LET EVA DIE ALREADY
This classic series gets worse with every new release. Please. |

Oh yes. Cleaning up all of the video footage for the Platinum release made it SO HORRIBLE ARGH! |

That's a common misconception. While Gendo might not be entirely adverse to the concept, his reasons are vastly different and his ultimate survival is the intended outcome. spoiler[Gendo's ultimate objective is the recorporation of Yui, who will stay with him forever as Shinji wishes for a loving family. To that end, he has done everything possible to driv e his son towards desiring her return, via emotional abuse. The problems come in the form of everyone else, who drive him past wanting someone who will love him unconditionally into severe self-loathing, and he "wishes" that he is just left alone. The person left at the end of the movie is not Asuka (look closely), but his secret wish for the three people he desires: Misato, Rei (2), and obviously Asuka. Beyond this, describing things starts getting hazy and open to wildly differing interpretation. Such as this one: However, Asuka maintains her hatred of his weaknesses, and so he is doomed ultimately to a life of further self-loathing. He suggestion that she "feels sick" is A comment on realizing that she is stuck with (and was saved by) the person she hates most.] |

Agreed. What matters to me is if the movies are enjoyable, I don't care if they released one bit of merchandise, or millions of merchandise, or if the boxsets were released hundreds of times. The impression I'm getting from some posts is "Those greedy people, how DARE they try to make money". |

I may be in the minority here, but I do hope this remake does not come witha happier, more hopeful ending. Did anyone find anything happy or hopeful about the series? To me, if an optimistic ending were tacked on, I would find it so out of character with the series that I would wonder if the final creator even saw the show. If they are going to do a remake and add new material, it should stick with the atmoshpere of the original. To do otherwise would be similar to throwing a dark, depressing, whiny ending to a comedic anime like Azumanga Daioh.
Here's hoping AD doesn't have an ending like that, since I haven't seen the final yet.  It was the only straight comedy I could think of off the top of my head.

I second the motion. I as well feel like I should be saying "something" negative or doubful, but I'm actually pretty excited to see that We're getting official new Eva material. Anno writing/directing it sealed the deal. If it were anyone else, this thread would be 1001 posts long of all of us screaming our heads off. A new work from Anno.....I was wondering when we'd see anything from him again. After getting married, I was afraid Anno had gone soft and lost his insane edge, due to the attention of a good woman at his side. Only time shall tell. Does Marriage and happiness ruin an artist? |

Holy crap. That's like adding new chapters to the Bible! I really didn't expect this. Mind you, Evangelion became like a second religion to me in highschool. (Actually, I still think it's a better religion than, oh, say, Scientology.) Evangelion was possibly the biggest fandom personally I got into. Yet I thought things were officially done with it. I was even happy with that. I thought all that was left was endless merchendising and countless fan continuations and parodies. Now it seems Anno and Gainax has more official story to tell. Well, hell, count me in. |
