It's just like one of my Japanese eroges.

Anno, I like you because you can animate like a montherfucker, not for your opinions. Just shut up and draw.

[Anonymous No.]

There are people who still take Anno seriously?
He's like a Japanese George Lucas.

[Anonymous No.]

It's sad that my favorite work by him is his only live-action film.

And it even isn't that good.

He doesn't animate, he directs. I think you're thinking Imaishi.

Oh did he direct 2 live action films?

I was talking about Day Ritual.

[Anonymous No.]

>>8163899
He was an animation director and did animation work for a couple Miyazaki films before he founded Gainax.

>>8163923
Three, actually. Love & Pop, Ritual Day, and Cutie Honey LA. Ritual Day is my favorite work by him right after EoE.

That picture reminds me of ulillillia

Er yeah, Ritual Day.

I totally forgot that a Cutie Honey live-action exists, let alone that he directed it.

Ritual Day was alright. I could see comparable visuals between that and Evangelion, which was odd. I just hated the MC, because he was so much like every other male MC that Anno has creative involvement with.

It's some kind of drab/depressed Mary Sue thing going on with him...

Not a mary sue, per se, but definitely a "self-insert" type character (animator turned live-action film director with life problems). Evangelion was practically composed of only self-insert characters. There's nothing weird about the visual motifs, that's just Anno's particular style and the presentation and theme is very close to NGE's. What is a bit weird is that it isn't even written by him, but the material is perfect for his style.

Personally, I love the little details in Anno's work, his striking use of color and contrast, his jumbles of visual motifs and symbols. It feels very messy, but at the same time controlled. It's powerful. Try watching some of his stuff a second time, maybe it'll "click" like NGE did with me.

I don't get what he's trying to say.
>Characters in animation do not cheat. They do not let you go for another.
You have to stay monogamous with characters from anime? Your waifu won't cheat on you and won't let you cheat on her?
>Animation is on certain points, very close to the pornography industry. All your physical needs are met. You can watch different animations and find anything you desire.
But you can still pick and choose in animation styles without binding yourself?

I concede that in regards to visuals, he's a very good director.

I just don't like most (any) of his main characters.

>Your waifu won't cheat on you and won't let you cheat on her?
The sentence wasn't "They do not let you (go for another)", it was "They do not let you go, for another" i.e. a roundabout way of saying cheating again

[Anonymous No.]

Said Anno before he want back to work on his EVA rehash movies.

[Anonymous No.]

>>8163967
I don't blame you. Most of them are miserable and annoying, but I guess you need those types of characters for the drastic moments of self-realization in all of his work.

You mean Tomino?

His live action work is like directed by hipster

Wide-angle everywhere

But at least it's better than Mamoru Oshii live action work

Yes, to make characters that holds your attention, and ensures that you follow her to the end of their struggles, is an objective common to all storywriters everywhere.
>Animation is on certain points, very close to the pornography industry. All your physical needs are met. You can watch different animations and find anything you desire.
So on-demand TV viewing, and indeed much of modern media which through the compartmentalistion of new media into genres and pushing said genres to consumers who like them, is actually a plot by the Porno people to make us pleasure-seeking slaves??

Someone should tell this man to stop seeing everything he does as a representation of the sexual act.

He never said or even implied that.
