You're just starting to feel that? Gainax hasn't had a smash hit since EVA. They've been milking it for all its worth for years and years because it's still profitable. I'm nervous that these movies will be nothing more than a dumbed-down version to make EVA more universally accepted.

EVA is good only because of its ambiguity. There are so many unanswered questions, so many different interpretations, do many different conclusions to be drawn... like the Bible of recent anime.

On a side note, Anno apparently just rewatched EVA for the first time in many years in preparation for this project. He said he was surprised by how interesting EVA was.
