Oh, snap. Numbers is back in town. High fives all around.
Anno wrote:Personally, I want to try making new films and television series aimed at everyone from junior high school students onwards that enable [viewers] to re-experience tokusatsu. Even watching Toei's Super Sentai Series, I feel that power stems from persevering. As it stands now, there are high hurdles [to be overcome] here as well, but in any case I want to create interesting works, both in tokusatsu and in anime.
Hmmm...makes me wonder if perhaps Anno will try his hand at doing more live-action material.
Among the people who use the Internet, many are obtuse. Because they are locked in their rooms, they hang on to that vision which is spreading across the world. But this does not go beyond mere ‘data’. Data without analysis [thinking], which makes you think that you know everything. This complacency is nothing but a trap. Moreover, the sense of values that counters this notion is paralyzed by it.
And so we arrive at demagogy. - Hideaki Anno, 1996
