Trick or Treat!
Evangelion ReDeath ReDux is now on YouTube.
So it looks official, Gainax is revisiting Evangelion in the form of four new movies (with ”a large amount of new material”) retelling the basic story of the TV series. The first one is due Summer 2007.
I’m not gonna say we’ll definitely do the Sokodei thing to the new stuff, but you bet we’ll be taking a close look at it. Oh baby.
EDIT (9/7): I first read the news off Anime News Service which had a rough translation of the news as published in Newtype. Anime News Network has posted their own article which suggests the new movies will not be a remake of the original series, but will still be set in the same continuity. The plot thickens?
EDIT (9/8): Now this article from ICv2 says it is a remake, with the goal of making the show more “comprehensible”. For now, I’ll let them all speculate and wait ’til we actually see some footage of the thing before commenting any further.
I suppose it was inevitable:

Saw this thread over at Eva Monkey. It could be total BS, but I wouldn’t put it past Gainax to wring a little more money out of their biggest franchise. (Hell, I never imagined there would ever be a sequel to Gunbuster.)
People who ask me if we’d ever do a ReDeath sequel are told “most likely not”, but if Gainax were to actually do some sort of follow-up I think we’d be obliged to at least consider it. Heh, an Eva prequel, Evangelion ReDeath: Episode I - The Phantom Überpimp?
