| Saiyar said: Neon Genisis is the greatest anime ever (not including the film which was ment for idiots that didn't undersand the TV series). Given Anno's experiences in the 3 years before hand it is easy to see why it is so well written. It may surprise you to know that Anno was also had improtant roles in several Mayazaki films including Nausica, Luputa and the Ghibli short films. The Melencholy of Suzimaya Haruhi is propably the second best anime after that. As someone who reads the novels I can only, say as great as the first series is it will only get better. After that ther are lots of current/past animes I would recomend, most of which have been mentioned here. PS any Studio Ghibli film = awesome. |
Apparently they're working on new movies. According to wikipedia, "On September 9, 2006, Gainax confirmed a new animated film series called Rebuild of Evangelion, consisting of four movies to be released in 2007 and 2008. The first three movies will be an alternate retelling of the TV series (including new scenes, settings, backgrounds, characters), and the fourth movie will be a completely new conclusion to the story." So another chance for more interesting story or could take a down turn. I guess we'll see.
