You're an idiot. Study harder.

Fundamentally, Eva is just my life copied out onto film. I'm [still] alive, so the story hasn't finished.

Evangelion is my life and I have put everything I know into this work. This is my entire life. My life itself.

The fact that you see salarymen reading manga and pornography on the trains and being unafraid, unashamed or anything, is something you wouldn’t have seen 30 years ago, with people who grew up under a different system of government. They would have been far too embarrassed to open a book of cartoons or dirty pictures on a train. But that’s what we have now in Japan. We are a country of children.

It's strange that ''Evangelion'' has become such a hit - all the characters are so sick!

Characters in animation do not cheat. They do not let you go for another. Animation is on certain points, very close to the pornography industry. All your physical needs are met. You can watch different animations and find anything you desire.
