A new Neon Genesis Evangelion anime is officially in the works

[Exalted Monarch]

A new Evangelion anime was announced at the franchise's 30th anniversary event. The new series will be written by Yoko Taro (creator of the NieR franchise), directed by Kazuya Tsurumaki, and animated jointly by Studio Khara and CloverWorks.

They already released a short teaser for it:

We don't know whether this will be a reboot, a sequel, or a completely original story set in the same universe, but judging by the presence of Eva Unit 01 in the teaser, it seems like it will involve the main cast from the original series to some capacity.

As someone whose favorite anime is Evangelion, I think this new project is unnecessary. Evangelion is one of those lightning-in-a-bottle works that cannot be replicated. Hideaki Anno himself tried with the Rebuilds and failed miserably. Those movies not only failed to improve on the original, but also attracted a bunch of foids, trannies, and normie NPCs to the franchise. I don't think this new project will be any different.

Didnt Anno say that After the Rebuild movies, Evangelion would stop making new content ?

He isn't making it tho, although his studio is behind this it seems.

 

[guessthatsit]

It's being made by Yoko Taro so I got hope.

I think it sounds interesting, Yoko Taro is a good choice for Evangelion. I'm not as precious about newer works having the potential to ruin or taint older works as I once was. You gotta see it from the creator's point of view, they only have one life and so do you. It is natural to want to continue something, even something as seemingly definitive as Neon Genesis Evangelion. It is way more difficult and risky to create something new from scratch. It is all in good fun the way I see it. We are lucky to have art and entertainment to enjoy in this godforsaken world.

Who is that guy ? I looked him up most of his works are niche or barely known videoganes

Videogame creator known for writing complex stories with multiple endings. Not for everyone. He is very much influenced by Hideaki Anno, he has gone on record to say that Neon Genesis Evangelion is his biggest inspiration.

[anotherwastedlife]

I'll give it a try because retro Eva is one of my favourite animes of all time but I'm never hopeful whenever anyone brings back a franchise that's decades old

 

[Exalted Monarch]

I don't have an issue with Yoko Taro. He's probably one of the least controversial names one could choose to lead this project. I just don't like the idea of continuing Evangelion. The original anime + End of Evangelion already form a complete story together.

You gotta see it from the creator's point of view, they only have one life and so do you. It is natural to want to continue something, even something as seemingly definitive as Neon Genesis Evangelion.

Ironically, Anno did more harm to his legacy by refusing to let Evangelion fall out of relevance. Had he retired after End of Evangelion, he would have been remembered as an undisputed legend in anime history. Since making the Rebuilds, however, he is seen as an average creator who got extremely lucky that one time with original Evangelion.

 

[Taboo Buster]

The only thing I liked about NGE was the theme song.
To this day, I honestly don't know what people see in it.

Personally I thought the Rebuild movies were interesting. They propose that the Evangelion universe was in a loop, for the purpose of landing in the "happy" (subjective) ending of the Rebuild movies. I think they enhance the original Neon Genesis Evangelion rather than take away from it. They give one more for the imagination to run away with.

The Rebuilds don't stand that well on their own though. I only enjoy watching them in conjunction with the original series.

Anno got turned out/blue pilled by his British female handler/wife and fucking ruined the meaning of End of Evangelion with the rebuilds.

 

[all this time]

The end of the Neon Genesis Evangelion series and The End of Evangelion movie show one form of heaven. The Rebuild movies show another form of heaven, one where the bluepill is real. If the bluepill was real then we would be living in heaven. That is my interpretation and perspective at least.

That's sort of what I mean. EoE's Shinji rejected the Instrumentality's lie/bluepill for the harsh reality. Rebuild Shinji would have stayed in Instrumentality and had sex with his waifu.
I have never watched the rebuilds. I just saw the synopsis and refused. Cos I like EoE. I kind of believe the theory that Anno made the Rebuilds to fuck with the waifu-fags. He gave them what they wanted to prove it would ruin the meaning of the show.

 

[Nithingr]

That is my interpretation and perspectiveat least.

But I've met a lot of people like you who are okay that the Rebuilds alter the meaning of the original. I see it as undermining. They see it as improving. You were more diplomatic with your opinion.

I think there is more depth to the Rebuilds than what you say. I do agree that they are a sort of "fuck you" to the waifu-fags though, but only partially.

I have never watched the rebuilds. I just saw the synopsis and refused.

I think you should give the Rebuilds a shot if you are an Evangelion fan. There is for sure a deep reason for and meaning behind the original Neon Genesis Evangelion and movie. But there is also a deep reason for and meaning behind why Hideaki Anno chose to continue Evangelion and in the way he did. Even if you still end up thinking that the Rebuilds are bluepilled garbage it will give you concrete reasons to hate on them. Right now you are shooting in the dark. I can't discuss the Rebuilds with someone who hasn't even seen them brocel.

Another thing I like about the Rebuilds is that they fully free Shinji from the faggot clutches of Kaworu. I think a large part of what the Rebuilds is about is that, showing why Kaworu is BS. Also Rei of course. I hate Rei. Asuka as well. Total Waifu Death.

 

[St3v3Cel]

Yoko Taro is an esteemed storyteller and one of the biggest Evangelion fans in the world. No matter how this series turns out it is going to be interesting. You guys can call me a consoomer all you want. If it's possible to make more good Evangelion I welcome it.

I want to stress that I am not like this with everything. I hate everything Star Trek past Enterprise for example. I also think that Tears of The Kingdom semi-ruined Breath of The Wild. But like I've said I liked the Rebuilds and I think it is possible to make more good Evangelion. The topics in Evangelion never run out of steam, there is always more that can be discussed. If we thought the blackpill was complete we wouldn't be here discussing it on Incels.is.

Rebuild Shinji literally shaped reality according to his likings

This might give me an excuse to finally rewatch evangelion again

Is neon genesis worth watching? I’ve heard a lot of good things but some of the Characters like Asuka seem like insufferable cunts

The anime can be quite depressing at times and you may question your own existence, It doesnt have a happy ending and every time things are about to get better, they just get worse. If you dont mind that, then go for it

 

[Q. H. Cooks]

After everything that came up after The End of Evangelion, I wouldn't get my hopes up.

There are series that are obviously finished, but people will keep resurrecting them for money, and the results are rarely decent.

 

[sadlemon]

Tbh, how more do they want to milk this series? Like we waited for eons for the last movie, we got it and then it had an ending which i won't spoil but was a letdown for the majority of the fans.

I doubt a complete reboot is necessary and likely won't turn out good.

 

[Sex-Starved Beast]

Not a fan of Yoko Taro, the plot of Nier Automata was boring to me, people mistook it as deep because it was quirky and NPCs had random philosopher names, and IIRC Yoko Taro admitted it, and admitted that he gets his ideas and writes his scripts while drunk. But it's not like I care about a new NGE. It should've ended with the first series and the End of Evangelion.

probably sequel

 

[Subhuman Niceguy]

That's horrible. The original anime was already superb, it's sad that studios can't think of anything besides reboots.

I agree

 

[Morbilius]

Even if I wasn't the biggest fan of the rebuilds they at least came from an honest place and evangelion is Hideaki Anno's brainchild without him involved I don't really see a point in seeing eva continue. End of Evangelion will always be a masterpiece though.

I cant wait i absolutely love evangelion and shinji is genuinely the most relatable mc in any anime to ever exist so relatable infact i might when it comes out switch my pfp to shinji just for celebration when it comes out

I need to watch neon Genesis Evangelion

 

[X-MALICUR]

After EoE - or, shit, the actual ending of the original anime - why does anyone need or want more? The entire point of Evangelion is to illustrate how damaging it is for people to be unable to connect with others because of insecurities and a lack of self-acceptance. Its literal main wholly encapsulating premise was to show trauma-ridden people erecting physical and emotional barriers against others to cope because they fear the intimacy of human connection and the vulnerability, exposure, and resulting pain that it necessarily entails. All the while, they full well know that abject loneliness is infinitely more painful than the pain that opening up would bring à la the Hedgehog’s Dilemma. How could you even add onto this central idea in any meaningful way with a new series when every character perfectly embodied that?

Like how can you make something better than Shinji's character arc in EoE where he accepted himself and internalized the above by rejecting instrumentality, choosing individuality, pain, and real connection over frictionless, boundaryless communistic, bluepilled zog-unity. Actualizing not only himself but every character in the story via this respective revelation, resolving everyone's main inner confliction and broader character arcs? Like do people just watch this shit for the robot fight scenes, TF? Everything after EoE is so superfluous it's absurd.

 

[DriveLikeNigger]

Evrything after End of Eva is just worthless drivel meant as fap material for the fans filtered by the original series. Don't forget that hideaki anno did it for the money
