Yoko Taro of Nier fame to work on a new Evangelion anime

[Jman]

 

And with that, the transformation of EVA into a brand Ala Gundam is complete.

No Anno, no Eva

While I want to make fun of Nier for being pretentious and only using philosophy to vaguely gesture at depth, BUT Anno did put the Christian imagery in Eva because it "looked cool," so.....

 

I dunno, might be the right fit, wrong reason.

It better just be a re-broadcast of the 1994 Evangelion but with two second Devola & Popola cameos in every episode. Then years later, you find out from a soon-to-be-defunct phone game that the two of them were orchestrating Instrumentality behind the scenes.

Bonus points if they accelerated it by doing silly things like telling Asuka that eyepatches are cool or telling Kaworu to take piano lessons. That way, the sisters can be the reason why the Rebuild movies happened too.

This sounds very specific and that you've been hurt by this before....

Nier Replicant is one of my favorite games, but beating it 3+ times for all the endings was work . I know Yoko Taro is the perfect person to direct Evangelion cause that dude had me garden for several IRL days to create the proper hybrid flower for a quest.
