Anime: Hideaki Anno: Before Evangelion
NOTE: First published on 18Jun2019
https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/feature/2019-06-17/hideaki-anno-before-evangelion/.147940
“Anno knew a guy from King Records named Otsuki, and as the story goes, the two were out drinking one day when Otsuki suggested to Anno that they work on an anime television project together. Anno agreed on the spot, came back to the office and promptly announced it to everyone. Nobody even batted an eyelash. We just accepted it without further thought."
"Anno has reportedly claimed Otsuki remarked, “Bring me something, anything, and I'll make sure it gets greenlit,” and you can imagine what happened next. Here's a hint - it's set to drop on Netflix on June 21st, 2019."
