Just what you would expect from the master, Mr. Anno.
>>150460753
>Necromancy's some evil
This is what they want you to believe.

>>150460072
Based.

And lets not pretend the next rebuild movie won't cause a shitstorm. You know everyone will be watching that shit.

>>150460072
I don't mind him milking evangelion, the movies are still entertaining.

Unlike Akira Toryiama milking dragon ball(every new series/movies get worse and worse), at least with Anno you get decently made evangelion movies and another projects.

>>150460945
Rebuild is worse than Super.

What's he done with all the Rebuild money?

Other than pay for lawyers to go after Gainax

>>150461037
He buys Ikuhara's love

>>150461037
Aniexpo? Not something that could've been done without lots of funding.

>>150460072
>Anno basically admitting to the theory that he's just milking Eva for money to use on new projects.

He's also suing Gainax which will kill funding for the P&S 2 and any other upcoming works. That may force Gainax to pay off Anno by transferring P&S, Gurren Lagann, Gunbuster, Die Buster, and other property rights to Khara. Clever move to hit when someone is vulnerable.

So he is actually an evil prick. Glad to know I was right and always knew he was a hack fraud. Hope he gets cancer and die.

You're a moron if you didn't already figure this out.

But can he make another industry changer masterpiece? It has been 20 years since nge.

>>150462045
Well, we know he would rather be killing more IPs than actually creating them.

The timing of the suits makes it opportunistic to the point of being a Shylock.

If it was just money, he could negotiate a higher payment rate. But what he probably wants, as in many other lawsuits in the world's history, is actually not the money, but access to the crown jewels. In this case, the property rights for all those intellectual properties.

Once he has those, he can then use his stronger financial position to re-negotiate new production deals for P&S 2 or for Gunbuster 3. Other production committees can negotiate better terms with Gainax due to weakness, but Khara can demand stronger terms as Anno has the EVA cashcow and no real permanent staff to eat his money as does Gainax. Anno is a real contract animator hirer compared to Gainax.

Nonono, he wouldn't even need to do that. All he needs is to increase merchandising and royalty fees for those. Instant cash, no work. Just what he wants.

>>150462532
When such a deal happens, I will think otherwise of him. At the moment. At the moment, all I see is just a nipjew grabbing at shekels from a dying studio that has a bunch of my favorite IPs.

>>150460971
Damn, you really have the shittiest taste

>>150462714
I have to say being conned into buying rebuild movies means you have shittier tastes. Especially how bad they are.

>>150462769
I never said the Rebuild movies are great, I consider them ranging from decent to a bit shitty.
Super on the other hand is straight garbage.

>>150462105
>he would rather be killing more IPs than actually creating them.

Gainax is too weak to develop further sequels, so in one sense it makes more sense to give up those rights to someone else that can better use them.

Anno is infamous for greed as to how other past partners were treated. So he's not a good choice to hold the IP rights for gunbuster, nadia, panty & stocking, die buster, gurren lagann, pleiades, or others because too many others don't want to work with Anno unless they can negotiate really strict terms unlike with normal contracts. The paradox is that stricter contracts should mean surrendering more profits to the studio, but in Anno/Khara's case, they are predatory. SO onerous contact terms should give Khara/Anno no premium but be the NORMAL situation.

Otherwise, there will be more sad cases like how Anno screwed over NHK and other producers in the past.

>>150462714
Not an argument.

Anno seems to be like that when money is concerned.

If Anno DOES do a hostile takeover of Gainax after this, I'll lose any respect I ever had for him in the first place. Even Lucas never stooped that low.

>>150462860
Rebuild is just rehashed garbage with sprinkles on it. The sprinkles being a new waifu for yuri baiting, and a fucking terrible story turn. Super is at least at it's heart faithful for being a silly pun driven shonen comedy. Just like Dragon Ball, and not the teenage driven edge Z was.

You must be one of those idiots that never watched Dragon Ball, so your opinion is discarded.

>>150460072
Anno's new project.

As the figurative speech would be:
Yamaga: Was making us fall into debt part of your plan
Anno: of course, imashi refused my offer in favor of yours

Yamaga: So what is your next step of your master plan
Anno: A hostile takeover with no survivors

Pretty much this. Anno really gives zero shits for fans of any anime/manga series. He is a wash up artist who thinks he is under rated genius.

>>150463040
>You must be one of those idiots that never watched Dragon Ball, so your opinion is discarded.
I'm 24, I live in Italy and don't worry, Dragonball and DBZ have aired so many fucking times on national TV that I saw both series from start to finish at least 3 times.
Super is embarrassing, stop trying to defend it.

Are you people are mentally ill?

A company you all like is the people that work at it, not the brand name. Those people are now, mostly, at Khara and Trigger.

Anno was the more important person and founder of Gainax in the first fucking place.

>>150462105
>why is everyone think gainax is going bankrupt?
After he acquires those other IPs, he can milk them too just like with EVA. And if he waits long enough, some of those titles are sort of "timeless" so he can simply do a full remake. To the new audience, it would be essentially a new work and new merchandising opportunity. But he needs the IPs first so he has to sue Gainax into bankruptcy to force their hand.

>>150460072
Just like with those hacks, Toriyama and Watsuki.

>>150463202
They owe him money.

>>150463152
>Super is embarrassing, stop trying to defend it.
Its only embarrassing if you take it seriously. So that is on you faggot. It brings me great joys when you faggots bitch and moan how stupid it is. I set here enjoying its whacky hijinks like it should always have been.

>>150463113
>Anno really gives zero shits for fans of any anime/manga series.
In 2010, Anno got some heat for being negative on anime fans.

>>150463252
Otaku, or fans? I mean people that generally love a series, not for the waifus. I can give two shits about otaku, but fans. That is a different story.

Reminder, if Anno was a legit "artist". He would be funding his own side projects. he is not fucking hurt for money, and he also has a lot of followers. He has not done shit all in over two decades.

Prove me wrong.

Post it.

>>150463387
>He would be funding his own side projects
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japan_Animator_Expo

>>150463416
This is great, but what about his projects? Making a stage for other indie animators is great, but attack a studio for more money. Especially when announcing a long demanded sequel to a series.

>>150463548
They owe him money. How do you not understand this? I'm not saying it's good, or even defending it, but they do owe it.

I'd rather have PSG2 than another Rebuild, but making these inane accusations is just silly.

>>150463279
Maybe not related, but where I come from the anime "community" and people who watched Evangelion avoid each-other almost actively.

>>150463659
There are lenders from hell and there are ones that aren't Merchants of Venice types. History has seen all types of predatory lendors who hope the person they lend to actually gets into trouble. That is called predatory lending.

Another type goes beyond the predatory lending and is the "merchant of venice" type lendor who wants to totally destroy the borrower. Then the lendor can pick and choose the best bits of the carcass and make a far bigger profit from the death of the borrower than if the borrower remained alive to pay back the loan with interest.

Anno seems to be in the merchant of venice mode because he has a bad past history with the way he opportunistically uses monetary situations to screw others.

>>150463548
>This is great, but what about his projects? Making a stage for other indie animators is great, but attack a studio for more money.

He doesn't want just the missing royalties, he's filing a lawsuit for over $800,000 in addition to the royalties he's already owed under contract which is about a third of Gainax's annual income from this past year. That's money that would otherwise go towards new projects, which they were already struggling to put out these past couple years.

>>150464339
>seems
We quite literally have zero evidence of any of that being the case. In fact, all the details seem pretty clear.

>>150464451
Merchant of Venice is not a good example because many people (including 4channers in this thread as seen by their posts) believe that if someone is owed the pound of flesh, they should get it. It's only because shakespeare was a liberal that the lendor got screwed of profits in the story.

Moral: Anno is owed his pound of flesh and he should get it even though it will kill Gainax. A borrower has no right to assume a lendor has any kindness in their heart.

>>150462106
Fucking spot on

>>150464451
If organ harvesting was legal in Japan, Anno would do it. He's into milking IP for money. No "seems" about it as he's posted about that.

>>150461520
>transfer all those IPs

Code Name: Trigger Girls: The Return of Space Patrol is gonna happen at this rate.

>>150465208
After the lawsuit is completed for more than the loan, Anno will have both the money (which was coming in) and the IP rights pennies on the dollar. It's a master stroke for him to put this lawsuit out just at the right time to dry up Gainax's existing projects. Ruthless and effective.

The same thing happens with patent holders. You can have the legal patent, but someone comes to sue you over and over until you run out of money. You are then forced to sell the patent to them because you can't afford to defend yourself. But if you did have enough money, you would have won each lawsuit. This attrition tactic is one of the problems in intellectual property law.

>>150464451
>>150463659
All evidence proves right now Anno is a nipjew looking for his shekles. Especially with the timing of the lawsuit.

EVA was when Anno and all the people together at Gainax worked on the project. The time they had was limited.

Rebuild and the others were after years of Anno's own personal efforts. So after all that extra time, Rebuild was all he did.

>>150470279
It's been so many years since EVA and Anno (and whoever is around him) haven't really done anything all that great. Anno probably needed all the other inventive minds at Gainax for a proper synergy. Apart from each other, all the components that made up the original Gainax don't seem to have done as well. The sum of the parts is less than the whole.

They came so far since the ambitious Daicon III and Daicon IV videos that launched Gainax. And now they seem to be trying to create a corpse.

Your face when I been telling Gainaxfags that Gainax doesn't earn money these days since all EVA merchandise has scrubbed the Gainax brand and only have Khara attached these days.

Also, all the Gainax stuff you used to care about left to Trigger or Khara.

The only people still staying at Gainax are the rejects too beta to join Khara or Trigger.

>>150471167
Gainax used to make PC games. People on /v/ and /a/ still play the game.

You could not be further from the truth.
He's not making new Eva content because he wants his fans to have what they want. He's doing it for himself, which is evil at worst.
He's not disregarding the system that he's a part of for the benefit of his fans, he's playing the system that already exists, which is Lawful.
If Anno didn't have money trouble, he would not work on Eva. He's Lawful Evil at worst, True Neutral at best.

He was co-director. Toho was rebooting the whole japanese godzilla series for a fresh modern start. So of course moviegoers were more interested than with just a rehash of the old rubber suit monster. Anno commented on the prospect of returning for movie #2 scheduled for March 22, 2019, “I'm good. It'd be more interesting if they changed directors. Toho won't let me do it. There'd be a lot of difficulties."

Anno didn't address the specific difficulties that he would have, nor why Toho supposedly won't “let him do it,” but he did assure Evangelion fans that the final film of the Rebuild of Evangelion series is coming.

Do you really think anyone would waste time retelling the same story yet again if it wasn't for money?
You finish a project and you move to something else, you only go back if you need money.
Even if you think he really wanted to make changes to the story, the first film is almost the same.
