Khara can milk Eva for all I care as long as it brings about projects like Animator Expo.
Cameron Flores
It doesn't really bother me. The original series is an amazing story and was engineered to be good, not necessarily to succeed. It succeeded because it was good and resounded with people.
And I wouldn't dislike more Evangelion-related content, even if it does feel like a cashgrab. We've already had extended-universe works and spinoffs for decades, so it's like not like it'd be anything new. And if Anno is interested in building on Eva and supervising projects about it, that's potential for better things than the shitter spinoffs we already have.
Ryan Mitchell
>we will have Eva season 2 by the end of this decade >discussing Eva with Sup Forums while it's on air
my God, the possibilities
Blake Nguyen
If they made something like Anima but not retarded I would both watch the shit out of it and enjoy the End of Sup Forumsvangelion.
Nolan Garcia
Evangelion is a self-contained story, it is nothing like the Gundam universe. Nevermind the rebuild cash grab.
What would Evangelion season 2 be even about?
Why doesn't he do something new, like he did with Godzilla? Why does he want to milk this franchise to the death like George Lucas?
Why are so many Jap anime developers so retarded?
Matthew Bennett
I like this approach. Anno's Eva is done, but having it reinterpreted by other artists is something I'd be interested in seeing. Funding other Khara projects is a sweet bonus too, I could easily see them being one of the most important studios in the future.
Caleb Perez
that's good new stuff sucks
John Williams
>It was a project for people to reaffirm how fun Japanese animation could be, so the greatest goal was to disseminate it throughout the world. Anno is cute!
Alexander Walker
>yeah it's for the money but we need the money to make original stuff too! Would ring a lot less hollow if Khara had done more than exactly 0 academy length original productions in their entire existence.
Justin Davis
He's clearly insane. Bubuki Buranki has told Eva's story better than any version of Eva that's come into existence yet. Mediocrity is a cornerstone for a fallen fortress.
Cameron Taylor
>yfw a new evangelion directed by hiroyuki imaishi will come out in this decade
Brayden Russell
That would simultaneously be terrible yet an absolute blast.
Josiah Nelson
He can just keep milking it with spinoffs and reinterpretations like that short they made for the Animator Expo
Andrew Foster
>wanting modern Imaishit to direct anything
Colton Reyes
>Bubuki Buranki has told Eva's story better than any version of Eva that's come into existence yet.
EVA Build Fighters is the only thing that can save it
Mason Davis
>he wishes Evangelion will become a cultural icon, one of the cornerstones of anime, much like Gundam If that ever happens I will kill myself.
Caleb Price
what the fuck? there's absolutely no need to destroy Evangelion with spinoffs or whatever rebuilds already shat on it fucking japanese jew, no wonder there's so much Judaic imagery in Eva
Benjamin Hall
I think the biggest indication that something has shifted in the modern anime industry would be the day I wake up and see "Evangelion Season 2 In Production"
>What would Evangelion season 2 be even about? AU
Robert Collins
I just want the best evangelion(ANIMA) to be adapted to anime and then I can die happily.
Kayden James
>>For the future, he wishes Evangelion will become a cultural icon, one of the cornerstones of anime, much like Gundam, which has become an institution in and of itself.

>Anno will milk the franchise untill it withers and dies, thrusting his bitternes and contempt onto the fans to finally achieve what he failed to accomplish until now This right here is the true end of evangelion
Brayden Anderson
That was actually pretty interesting. You rarely see the impacts of massive, constant battles between two giant beings on the everyday person who actually lives in the city.
Jeremiah Martin
MASTER A S T E R
Jeremiah Cook
I can't be the only one who wants the entire series erased and replaced with a full season based on episode 26 alternate reality
Benjamin Thompson
I dunno what you mean by "erased" but alternate universe stuff would be cool.
Ryan Price
it excels in the borefest category
Christian Reed
I hate Anno But I would watch Eva season 2 which isn't based on anima shitfest
Nolan Howard
>What would Evangelion season 2 be even about? Prequel story bridging the gap between Gendo beginning his foundation and 2nd Impact occuring, we'd get to see more of Shinji's mom, how Gendo treated young Shinji, Ritsuko and her mom, Fuyutsuki, maybe Misato and her dad, etc.
Neon Genesis Evangelion itself is the endpoint of the universe, any new material has to be set before it or contemporaneous to it or they risk ruining the point.
Alternatively they could pull a Mobile Fighter G Gundam and turn it into a slinoff battle shounen with the unused EVA unit designs.
Nolan Smith
I wouldn't mind seeing a prequel to Evangelion set 2300 years before the start of the series It would go something like this.
>Jewish travellers find artifacts from the Black Egg barried in sand >They give them visions aliens which they call Lilith, Adam, Angels etc. >This leads them to revise what they know from the torah eventually leading to the creation of the pre-kabbalic tradition. >They start a community in Qumran and set out to write the Dead Sea Scrolls. > We get a multi-generational saga. >One priest would be allowed to the chamber where the artifacts are hidden and he would write down the scrolls then pass down the teachings to his adepts. > One of those adapts becomes a man called Jesus of Nazareth. > During his visions he sees the energy crosses and decides this is a path to godhood and he sets out to reanact it himself to achieve that. > Finally during jewish rebellion roman forces station in Qumran. The essenes do not rebel but they hide the scrolls and some of them run away with the artifacts but are eventually lost in a storm at sea. > The essenes run away, eventually become the templar knights, then the illuminati and finally SEELE. Their beliefs change and they forget where they came from but some knowledge is kept which allows them to be a major political force in our world and eventually control the UN. > 2200 years after the start they find the scrolls in Qumran. SEELE realises their history and uses the guidelines in the scrolls to find Adam and Lilith.
Jonathan Cruz
>ITT: I wouldn't mind if Anno animated my awful Evangelion fanfiction
Jonathan Kelly
>男の娘大好き Would you a trap Kaworu or a trap Shinji?
Nicholas Martinez
the latter
Easton Walker
What a fucking asshole. He makes a bunch of money on a shitty half finished anime in the 90s and then remakes it for more money, throwing the little substance it held out the window for "muh fanservice"
Now he openly says he hopes it becomes the next Gundam so he can make money on other peoples writing through royalties until he dies? I was already pissed about him suing Gainax into oblivion and putting PSG2 at risk, but he just keeps finding new ways to make me hate him
John Jenkins
>making money >bad
Jelly much?
Kayden Allen
He turned it into fanfiction. Look into your heart. Isn't that what you always really wanted, under the thin veneer of irony an loathing?
Alexander Fisher
PSGfags are the worst
your whole show is fanservice fuck off
Gabriel Jenkins
Not at all. I'm watching it with friends for the third time (they never saw it) and it makes me sad that he ever did the rebuilds. They just suck so bad
It is possible that someone could do better with the franchise than he ever could, but what the fuck. We don't need more Star Wars movies and we don't need more fucking Eva. Just let it die and come up with something new, you one trick pony fucking hack
Easton Evans
He unironically thinks that Eva can become a symbol like Gundam. What an egocentric and deluded faggot.
Levi Lewis
It's already surpassed Gundam. Walk through Akihabara and you'll see far more Eva than Gundam.
Asher Wilson
>What would Evangelion season 2 be even about? Post-Impact scenario of a returning humanity struggling to rebuild, sheltered inside the last city on Earth by a mysterious AT Field protecting it from the marauding monsters outside, venturing out in smaller and more biological Evangelions piloted from their wombs, while the original Children have become figures of myth and legend.
This was real, Anno abandoned it to develop Rebuild instead.
Jackson Robinson
I feel happy that he gave me soft permission to go ahead and animate Eva anima.
t. Sup Forumsnimator. See ya in 2020 wth evangelion anima
Aiden Lee
>PSG season 2 ever being made I'd like to go to that universe
Caleb Nelson
If you do end up becoming a real animator, I'd be glad to have someone who could rig some Evas for a strategy/rpg.
Nathan Brown
He's just waiting for you to finish your project then he'll sue you for royalties
Jack Martinez
Anno is not like that
Xavier Sanchez
>the artifacts were buried near the site where Tabris landed >Tabris is released as a formless angel that can inhabit non-angels' bodies >it's passed down over time to new hosts >Jesus Christ was a host of Tabris who found a way to put it back into hibernation through killing himself
Benjamin Nelson
Looks like someone needs an unfortunate "accident" coming their way.
Easton Cooper
An Evangelion spin-off by Urobuchi? Sign me up.
Charles Gonzalez
Rei is best girl confirmed
Samuel Barnes
Impacts was legitimately good and I won't stand for anyone disparaging it.
Xavier Richardson
>author is a paid anime & manga researcher What's stopping you, Sup Forums?
Levi Martin
>Eva season two This would be fucking awful.
James Gutierrez
>Khara can milk Eva for all I care as long as it brings about projects like Animator Expo This
Who cares, just stick with the original works and ignore the rest. Honestly why you weren't doing that already is beyond me.
Cameron Powell
Source?
Dylan Moore
It's shit and you're a shit eater. AKA Anno's #1 customer.
Matthew Miller
>Evangelion spinoff/sequel written by Urobuchi, directed by Shinbo, and with Anno supervising/producing
SHAFTvangelion would make me kill myself because it would either be so depressing that I'd have no reason to live, or so fulfilling that I'd have no reason to live.
Jaxson Lewis
It's not like spinoff works damage the original. This isn't a George Lucas situation, Anno is smart and doesn't feel the need to rape the original. Most spinoffs are seperate continuities and the re-releases of the originals are preserved as best as they can manage.
Adrian Ramirez
Now the greedy cunt is going to kill any chance of having a S2 of PSG. Seriously fuck this hypocritical asshole. I hope this tarnishes his career, and the views of fans.
Camden Flores
That's not what he said, stop being a cynical jaded asshole-
Andrew Allen
Did he finger your sister or something? It's just cartoons mate.
Benjamin Davis
I guess Kaworu is the new MC
Julian Torres
Fells pretty good, I hope he finally kills Gainax with the law suit.
Grayson Myers
>yfw someone just writes a screenplay from their AdEva campaign
Joshua Powell
I can understand what he's aiming for but wouldn't that basically kill his baby? I guess he's finally willing to let it go.
Tyler Garcia
That ending was great.
Justin Sullivan
PSG was shit, get over it already.
Carter Sanders
Eva already became a significant work, so you know he's full of shit. Anyway, I guess it's nice knowing he admits he's a hack.
I stopped caring about Eva after EoE, because I'm not a moron.
Andrew Young
Does anyone even play anymore? Every time I log in it's a ghost town.
Liam Morales
With this, it seems even more obvious that 1.0+3.0 will set up some multi-universe/time loop shit for the whole universe.
Charles Cook
>FUCK ANNO! HE HATES ANIME AND HE HATES HIS FANS! ANNO THINKS ANIME FANS ARE STUPID >KAWAII!!!! ASUKA LOOKS SO CUTE WITH HER NEW HAT!!!!! CAN'T WAIT FOR 3.0+1.0!!! ASUMARI IS MUH OTP!!!
William Rogers
Wow, thank you for demonstrating extreme generalizations that would come from two different people are extremely easy to fabricate!
Zachary Smith
The evafags never gave a shit about the plot, it's all about the waifus and Kaworu. They talk shit now but if one of spin-offs is about Asuka, Mari and Rei forming an idol unit, the same faggots on this thread will be making threads like Where were you when Eva was saved
John Brown
>thinks NGE can become a cornerstone of anime like the Gundam franchise is
Gundam became a cornerstone because the characters awere changeable. Gundam doesn't rely on Char and Amuro; it's a series that simply relies on the presence of giant robots named Gundam.
I can't see an NGE without the original characters. NGE is a series about THIS GROUP of shitty, damaged, abused kids and the shitty, schizophrenic, manipulative adults. It's not about the weird Lovecraftian monster of the week attacking the earth or about the units. Hell, the giant robots were just giant vaginas. Shinji and Asuka were literally trying to go back into their mother's vaginas, considering their moms had stuck their souls in the giant biobots. and Rei was trying to get her soul BACK out of the fuckin' robot.
Angel Sanchez
>Gundam doesn't rely on Char and Amuro Tell that to all the Char clones.
Jaxon Garcia
I think waifus are for literal sad virgins and I hate Kaworu and I'm an Evafag.
Caleb Martin
hey now, there's nothing wrong with blonde pedos who wear cool shades. The one Char I don't like is that faggot outright claiming he's Char even though he's not. What a poseur.
Jacob Ramirez
You're on the minority. Get used to it.
Liam Howard
I hate minorities
Jonathan Davis
>hate minorities >you're the minority Deepest lore
Brandon Parker
I just want an action spin off, like Blue Gender with more wacky metaphysics, conspiracies and biomechs.
Mason Hernandez
I've said since day one Khara is a place where talent is squandered. Since back when rebuild was a lot more popular here as a rule.
We could have had 10 years worth of Shin Godzillas instead of this cash in shit.
Logan Ramirez
Anima misses all three, but Yamashita has more ideas and I think he's still your dude.
Austin Scott
Holy shit, this could be amazing. Probably the only way I'd want to see more Eva stuff. I wouldn't really trust any other writer to do it.
Jayden Hall
Why would he choose such a weird way to kill himself?
Hudson Richardson
>How does it feel to know that all the deep shit he put there is just a front to take your money?
Since fucking when did anyone on Sup Forums every buy anime?
Blake Jackson
>How does it feel to know that all the deep shit he put there is just a front to take your money? What deep meaning there is to what he said?
No problem with it at all. Art and commercialism go hand in hand, and always have.
Daniel Moore
>For the future, he wishes Evangelion will become a cultural icon, one of the cornerstones of anime, much like Gundam, which has become an institution in and of itself But it kinda already is
Lincoln Martin

Zachary Brown
Not really? They merchandise it to the death, but there's really only one, now two, primary forms of Eva. Just the series and Rebuild.
Parker Smith
Of course this fag is talking about the waifus JUST LEAVE THE WAIFUS ALONE ANNO SHINJI ALREADY FAPPED TO ASUKA YOU FILTHY OTAKU SCUM God, I hate this cashgrabbing faggot
