Anno wanted Eva to expand and be like Gundam AUs (G-Gundam), his idea for rebuild was partially inspired by Zeta's ANT. Also, the point of the last rebuild movie was for Anno to give a final goodbye to Evangelion and hand it over to other people.

No it fucking wasn't. How do people still believe something so obviously wrong. The guy shits out movies, shorts, and merch for decades, but he DEFINITELY doesn't want you to consume any of it! He just approved a new series but DON'T watch it guys!! Move on!!!!!

Taro is such a shitter, basically one of the leading representatives of the intentionally cyclical rut a lot of 'otaku media' is currently stuck in, where multiple properties feel simply to be remixes of things that have been done better before. Sew the narrative with unearned emotion by forcing sentimentality typically by way of contrived sorrow. Read a Wikipedia article about a philosophical concept and apply a surface level understanding of it to your work to give it a feeling of depth. Also, make everything apocalyptic near the end of your story to give it a sense of grandiosity. fuck him

also, pander to otaku while at the same time acting as there is any potential artistic integrity to such a thing. everyone knows why the nier remake sold less than 7mil copies than automata, and why the recent message of the series continuation was not "nier will be continued", but "nier automata will be continued". Basically like if Bethesda said "Skyrim will be continued...". his gacha game and recent anime were also both flops.

This came out of nowhere. I was always kind disappointed that Square never seemed to use him for anything after NieR ReIncarnarion which was a gacha so I never really played it.
Nier Replicant/Gestalt and Automata were pretty great. I loved the story and characters so much. I loved the first one a lot more which is probably uncommon. I havent played Drakengard 1 but I heard it had a great story and characters from people and remember reading Ending E was supposed to be a parody of Evangelion (End of E get it giant naked women etc) which is really funny in retrospect. This is really promising. The nier music guy doing Evangelion is amazing. It's no wonder the visuals focus on musical instruments. Dont know shit about anyone else involved though.
>>
>>23762441
Why? He hasn't made anything worth a damn since the first Drakengard? He's just as washed as Tsurumaki is as far as I'm concerned though at least Tsurumaki doesn't attach his name to random cashgrabs for the sake of nickel and diming his fans.

I saw the movie on the theatre and fucking loved it, Tsurumaki did it again.
The full show was good though a bit too short. I understand it's a popular UC show and was successful, and internet jaded slobs hating on it isn't of any importance.
>>23762842
Nah, but man I hated the "sequel" toonami did. Didn't bother to watch flcl3 though I heard it's better than 2, not a high bar.
Also Diebuster is unfiltered kino (and the true "flcl2"), if you don't like Diebuster, I feel sorry for you

FLCL was fine on its own. The sequel "seasons" are trash trying to milk it dry.
>but muh creator's vision
stop. it has to fucking stop. These shows had conclusions with some potential for a sequel teased at the end. That didn't happen in a timely manner and now 20/30 years later they're trying to drag it out again with the loosest connection to the original work.
I value Eva and I value FLCL and I won't tarnish them with trash that has the same name.

It's true though. Gundam nerds seethe whenever Evangelion, Code Geass or Gurren Lagann gets brought up because people actually like these shows for the characters, compared to Gundam where 99.9999% of fan conversations revolve around the fucking robots. Like, they cum over limited release model kits of Pale Rider or Gundam Woundwort but can't even name the series they're from, who even the pilots are or what the story is even about, they just know its wow cool robot and they need to fucking buy it for their Gunpla hoard they will never build.

>>23763125
>compared to Gundam where 99.9999% of fan conversations revolve around the fucking robots
Simply not true, outside of a few "hey I like how this robot looks, most of Gundam discussion online is about in-fighting between the different series, with most sticking to 0079 because it's the safer camp, but then when people actually discuss the shows it's muh lalah could have been a mother to char, muh newtype magic, muh nina ntr, etc etc it's rarely about the robots.
It's also not a problem of "gundam fans" and it isn't even a problem, it's just normal human behavior, the human drama causes more discussion (and shitposting).
Also, the only "gundam fans" that seethe about other popular series are the western ones because in the west, Gundam is in that sweet spot of having been pushed to the mainstream, but never actually made it too big, so it rests in that kinda "popular cult classic" spot. In Asia gundam is the most normie shit ever, the CoD of mecha. So asian gundam fans are usually more chill. I never see gundam vs eva/anno vs tomino shitposting in JP internet either.

You have to understand anon, secondaries never played drakengard. They never played OG nier. They never played 3. And while he wasn't very involved with 2 they sure as fuck never played that. They never read any of his manga either. They only played automata. Hell, some of them didn't even do that and just watched the anime.
>>

>>

So what are the "ingredients" for an Eva AU? Gundam has its Char clones, its Earth vs space colony wars, the Newtype equivalents, the general design language of a "Gundam".
I think there will be almost certainly heavily marketed tsundere vs kuudere heroine options. Probably the exotic religious imagery will remain, maybe they'll try it with something other than Christianity. And perhaps the will keep the formula of fighting surreal, gimmicky one-off kaiju that appear one at a time.

YOU RIKED?
>>

>>23763636
Well, the trailer mentions an "eternal summer vacation" and the OG Eva had a minor plot point about Japan losing distinct seasons after the 2nd Impact.
Obviously you have the biological but armored Evas, with a big horned one in the trailer as likely our new main unit.
The trailer also mentions this is paradise and hell, so I guess we'll get the cast having down time between whatever battle they're facing, rather than being in a military ship or facility all the time, which probably means something like the Angels appearing in intervals rather than, like, two factions in a war with Evas.

Even right when Evangelion was coming out, right alongside EoE, Anno was personality involved with the getting the licensing sorted out to get Eva into Super Robot Wars F/FF. He was never anti-otaku or merchandising.
>>
>>23763636
>>23763730
I'd watch a fantasy setting Eva similar to Escaflowne.
>>
>>23763904
For some reason, myths of Anno deliberately making the Evas "weird" in design because he didn't want figures and model kits made out of them were around, I remember reading that from a magazine back in the 90s.
In more recent times I've read that Gainax was actually struggling to get sponsors for Evangelion and that Bandai wasn't convinced about the designs selling kits, so it took a while before Eva was proven to be a success that Bandai released the first kits, meanwhile, Sega, who are one of the main sponsors of Evangelion since the beginning, actually released the first Eva toys.
Generally, there's a lot of misconception on the (western, at least) internet regarding Eva and Anno

There was no 'vision' with those projects in to begin with; It was commission work for an Adult Swim money man on backs directing dispassionate artists to recreate exactly the "magic" of past things he liked/thought would be good for the network. The same guy has done this several times now and every project he's involved seems to turn out like complete shit.
Take a look at this.

Because it's too popular with normies who don't watch other mecha and call this show a "deconstruction".
I was on a forum the other day asking what kind of mecha they've watched, and the only answers they gave were Toonami shows and Gundam 00.

Damning considering the movie is mostly the plotless, characterless fanservice goop that is the OYW prologue, which hints at a premise the series doesn't even bother following up (which is why in the series version it's shoven to episode 8 of 12 rather than at the beginning)

You dumbfuck, everybody knows Anno milks Eva to death and beyond, it's the contrast between the message of leaving escapism behind and face the real world and eva being one of the most milked franchises in terms of merchandising what baffles people who can actually critize Anno. You don't sound like a redditor, you sound like an Anno cocksucker, straight out of evageeks.

I thought you /m/en were more well informed, compared to your typical f/a/ggot anyway.
The FLCL sequels were the result of Yamaga ducking Anno when he got offered more money for the rights to FLCL, Gunbuster, and Nadia, despite the fact him and Anno had already settled on a price for those properties.
>>
>>23763374
My first exposure to the NieR series was AutoMata as a P* fan, liked it and got the Replicant remaster/remake. I like the games, I'm willing to play any of the Drakengaards if they release a remaster or something. I just don't have access to those games natively.

>>23765058
>Gunbuster, and Nadia
I don't know about Gunbuster but Nadia is different. Nadia is entirely owned by NHK, it's from the days before production committees.
It does suck, is there any place on the internet where you can talk about Eva where people aren't just entirely ignorant about this stuff?

>I mentioned to President Yamaga and Director Takeda that, when business calmed down, I planned to buy the rights to works that the Khara team had a lot of involvement in, such as Gunbuster, Diebuster and FLCL in 2014. Under these conditions, it would be difficult for Gainax create a new work, so I also thought about the future of these works.
>Initially, Yamaga was satisfied and we were discussing the conditions of the purchase, when suddenly, he asked me 6 times the original price.
>There were no compelling reasons to increase the price and while we were confused, the conversation became more and more vague and in 2015, the rights to the 3 works were sold to other companies. In May of that same year, I heard that Gainax had a banking intervention, and a readjustment of employees on a large scale and needed money more than ever, so they must have sold at a higher price to another company. I think they prioritized money over the development of the work and the team’s feelings.
>Other works that I had no involvement with were also sold in 2014.
>When the rights began to disband, I felt it was necessary to understand Gainax’s financial situation and I asked several times to show me the situation and a payment plan. Depending on the situation, it wasould be necessary to suspend payments or provide greater financial support.

The new Eva-01 design suggests it's a new universe, unless that's something they just made up for the trailer.
>>23763070
He said if he ever returned to Eva, that's what he would do.
I wouldn't be surprised if it's in production though. Anno's been saying forever he wants there to be a bunch of different Eva anime from different directors, but he wanted to finish the Rebuilds first. Khara is probably working on multiple Eva projects with different studios, it's just that the Clover Works series is the one furthest in development.

I fucking love Kaine Emil and Nier so much. If they make protagonist characters as endearing as those 3 it might be amazing. Likewise I fucking hated everyone in Drakengard 3 and he could be trolling the shit out of us and everyone is actually pigeons. Should be fun either way. Worst it could be is boring. And the eva fandom is always mad or giant newfags and dumb so the reaction should be hilarious as long as it's not milk toast.
