Evangelion itself is ugly but Asuka's plugsuit is a recolor of Mari's plug and I don't know what to say about it ...

He said in interviews that for him NTE was Shinji's story and that he was finished with his story, which opens the way for other members of the studio to explore the events surrounding his story (as noted by trattopen, they already started with the 3.0 prequel mini-manga), or even someone else to tell their own story of Evangelion: that what he said when in interviews when 1.0 was released, wanting to make Eva a franchise like Gundamn, although I'm curious to see how such a thing will pan out, since Evangelion is a story intrinsically tied to its creator and his mindset of the moment.

Then Khara should be allowed to move forward with things like a physical disc release.
I really hope it's not a new film or anything, let Eva rest for at least a while and I feel it is a shame a series is never allowed to end now, but that's just me.

Gendo'sPapa wrote:There's zero debate that more Evangelion wouldn't make money. I would never say otherwise. I'd argue narratively there's honestly very little reason to tell what happened after Shinji went into the coma. Anno skipped it for a reason - at this point telling that story is just a lot of empty narrative table setting with little to no emotional through-line - and now with the two final films having filled in most of that backstory the need to tell that tale is even doubly unnecessary. But absolutely if Khara wants to be the most profitable studio it can be then that's the next things they should do. Then if they really want to be a money machine they should just "Marvelize" Evangelion and churn out new shows & movies as often as possible. Keep finding new unnecessary corners of the world to tell, narratives to spin off from and in a few years we can have a Tenchi Muyo like universe where there's a 26 episode show about Shinji's cousin twice-removed Kenji Ikari who lives on a medieval planet and fights Angels with his Evangelion sword**. More Evangelion All The Time would be the most financially rewarding path to take.

Personally, I would be very interested in seeing things like Kaworu and Kaji's friendship, the tragic love between the later and Misato and the effect of her son's birth, Gendo and Fuyu's exile and eventual return to SEELE's grace, the plight of Asuka upon waking up with her curse and with all her friends dead and the beginning of her friendship with Mari, her implied falling out with Misato, Toji, Kensuke and Hikari's struggles to survive that will lead to the characters we see in Thrice, maybe the premises of Kensuke and Asuka's peculiar relationship (although that it started so early), the 11th and 12th Angels, Mark.06 in action, how did NERV and SEELE reacted to Mari's reappearance (especially Gendo and Fuyu), and above everything else, the real Third Impact, so we can understand why the bloody hell everyone blames Shinji for it. (which is something that is relevant to Shinji's story and not explained in the main movies)
