「株式会社ガイナックス」について
2025年12月10日の官報掲載にありますように、アニメーション制作スタジオだった「株式会社ガイナックス」の破産整理が終わり、法人として消滅し、その42年弱の歴史を終えました。 創設期から20年以上籍を置き、今日まで株主として関わっていたものとして誠に残念な最後ですが、静かに受け止めています。 まず、2019年、当時の代表取締役社長巻智博氏の逮捕を受け、弊社と共にガイナックス社の再建、後に整...

Got my copy of GKids' new American pressing of Evangelion:2.22 You Can (Not) Advance a week earlier than expected, so here's a little look at what it's like.
I have a bit to say in terms of pros and cons, but up front, I consider this a (flawed) upgrade from the previous Funimation release.

Update: I managed to get my copy of the new version of 2.22 a little early! I'll discuss the differences between the new version and the original Japanese blu-ray when I have the time to check it out.
Pre-orders are up for GKids' blu-ray release of Evangelion 1.11 and 2.22, and these appear to be replicas of the original Japanese blu-rays as far as cover art and extras goes (though I imagine the Fly Me To The Moon trailers might not show up, and it wouldn't be their fault if that's the case.)

30 years (and a little over two hours) ago, the first episode of Neon Genesis Evangelion premiered on TV Tokyo. Quote from the show's creator, Hideaki Anno: "On that day, I was working on revising the storyboard for episode 17. When it first aired on TV, I didn't have time to watch it in real time."
