It appears Gainax has announced a new trilogy of films titled Zero Century, with the first being focused on Emeraldas, set for a 2020 release. While as a Leiji fan i should be excited, i feel a little on the fence about this due to some recent events

I call bullshit.

How in the fuck are they going to afford to produce this and Blue Uru? Wasn't that film alone going to cost $40 million?

How much liquidity does Gainax even have at this point?
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

Sounds like they're peacocking.

They're hoping some investors will be allured by their beautiful decorative project announcements & will come to them with a nice juicy financial contribution.

From what i've been gathering, Production Goodbook will be the one to produce the film while members of Gainax like Yagama and Sadamoto will be put in key positions
