Zen Posted August 15, 2003 Share Posted August 15, 2003 I was wondering if anyone else but me noticed that Gainax studios has an ongoing theme for making these classic anime that are both extremely weird and confusing, but at the same time thay are considered to be some of the greatest. Example, Fooly Cooly and Neon Genesis Evangelion. Both really weird and confusing, but also very good and succesful. ANy one else notice this. Oh, and did you notice that in episode two of FLCL when Kanti was loading Naota's dad's car with boxes, his dad started to rant on about the robot and what not and Naota started to talk to Haru and said, "Yeah, he wrote a book on the deep mysterous of Eva." now, i think that stands for Evangelion. Am i the only one who noticed this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shinji-Kun Posted August 15, 2003 Share Posted August 15, 2003 Whoa, I gotta check out my FLCL cd again, I think I may have missed that. If so, that is really cool that they are refering to different animes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
satan665 Posted August 15, 2003 Share Posted August 15, 2003 Theres a part where the da dresses up as Lupin also that is pretty funny. I think Gainax really likes to have projects that push boundaries a little or a lot. Especially story-wise. The best part was the confusing end to Evangelion, then they did the movie ending because so many people complained and wanted to know what was going on. I watched it and was still so confused with the adam/Ayanami stuff and the Lance and all that weird crap. I still don't get it but I liked it anyway. Thats Gainax!

Guest Tical Posted August 15, 2003 Share Posted August 15, 2003 i noticed the deep secrets of Eva. I alsonoticed Gainax's thing... Another wierd and confusing yet awesome anime by Gainax is Betterman. Did you notice all of them have mecha? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guess? Posted August 17, 2003 Share Posted August 17, 2003 The dad in flcl also mentions gundams in the first episode during the magna(sp?) scene. Just thought everyone needed to know that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OtakuSennen Posted August 17, 2003 Share Posted August 17, 2003 Hehe.. I love Gainax. Eva AND FLCL... And Betterman (which I have never seen)... -_- What other projects has Gainax done, in the US or not..? They've never really done a manga story, have they..? Like how Pierrot (Or however they spell it) has done Naruto and Yuyu Hakusho, as well as some others.. I noticed that pattern of Gainax and their confusing-yet-oh-so-great anime.. ^_^ Hehe, I like that.. Eva rules all!! Bwahahahaha!! >_< Well not really.

Elk Posted August 18, 2003 Share Posted August 18, 2003 And there was also this part in FLCL where they act like the people from south park! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arkadyz Posted August 18, 2003 Share Posted August 18, 2003 [color=silver][font=times new roman][b]Well gainax has had a very colorful past...They have and still do make amazing animes... One of the reasons for this being that all of the founding memebers of gainax are big anime fans themselves...They know what fans like and know we dont like to be talked down to or shown cheap crap... Some of there best stuff is... Ouritsu Uchugun Honneamise no Tsubasa(Wings of Honneamise) Top o Nerae!(Gunbuster) Fushigi no Umi no Nadia(Nadia Secret of Blue Water) Oruchuban Ebichu, Kareshi Kanojo no Jijo(His and Her Circumstances) Mahoromatic As well as of course Eva anf furi kuri...Oh and the self mocking comedy otaku no video... Id reccomend any of there titles(And apologize if I missed any...Its late... :rolleyes: ) Well anywayz check out any of there stuff its all good...They are an amazing company.[/color][/font][/b] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hot Ice Hunter Posted August 18, 2003 Share Posted August 18, 2003 I just cracked up when they spoofed the Lupin thing. FLCL is one of the best anime's I've ever seen, too bad there's only SIX episodes for the entire anime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
