(Concerning the live action Evangelion project)

Neon Genesis Evangelion creator Hideaki Anno is enthused about the project, “Evangelion was created with a very Japanese sensibility,” said Anno. “In the live-action version, though, I suggested that the creators let their imaginations roam, unconstrained by the framework of the existing anime. There are some very surprising ideas in the design plans–things I’d never even thought of before. I was amazed to encounter such different ways of thinking about the project. I’m very much looking forward to seeing the re-creation of the title.”
