New Evangelion Series Announced
(www.evangelion.jp)
Oh, Anno is just dragging out the dead horse to beat, we'll never get another ballin' Eva again-
Screenplay by Yoko Taro
Directors: Kazuya Tsurumaki & Toko Yatabe
Music: Keiichi Okabe (He did the music for the Nier & Drakenguard series, and Automata)
Animation Production: CloverWorks x Khara
I have no idea what to expect. I only played Nier: Automata, but admittedly it was pretty dang good. The only misgivings I might have stem from how Tsurumaki handled GQuuuuuuX, but to be fair G-Quacks wasn't written by Yoko motherfucking Taro so, y'know.
The Asuka short was shown at the anniversary event and supposedly they were real strict about no one recording it & threatened to sue anyone who posted it online. I haven't been able to find anything on it either besides the fact that it is supposedly titled Episode 27 (as it is written as a bookend to Asuka of the original/EoE continuity)
Supposedly it will get some sort of physical release though according to Japanese twitter users who managed to see it at the event so
I could only find these terrible screencaps, not sure if these are from the event (but it looks like it given the instruments on stage in front of the screen)
