Announcement of a new 'Evangelion'

content auto translated from {from}

As part of the festival dedicated to the 30th anniversary of the anime and franchise Neon Genesis Evangelion, a new anime series has been announced. It is likely to be an alternative story, considering that the 'Evangelion' multiverse already includes the original series, its alternative ending, the Rebuild of Evangelion films, and several games, many of which also take place in alternative worlds.

The new anime will be produced by Khara (which, by the way, made Rebuild of Evangelion) and CloverWorks (known for the anime 'Spy Family').

The screenwriter is Yoko Taro;

The directors are Kazuya Tsurumaki and Toko Yahata;

The composer is Keiichi Okabe;

Studios are Khara and CloverWorks.

Interestingly, Yoko Taro, who led the development of the NieR and Drakengard game series, has repeatedly stated that he was inspired by 'Evangelion'. So, the circle, so to speak, has closed. What exactly Taro will bring to the new story about giant robots, psychoanalysis, and humanity in the struggle for divine power is still unclear. But at least those who cannot wait for the continuation of the NieR game series will now know what the author is doing instead.
