Reviving peak or beating a dead horse?
Dead horse, 100%
After the last Rebuild, didn't Anno basically say something like "now that part of my life is over and I can finally stop thinking about it"?
That would indicate to me they are beating a dead horse, for the $$$.
Anno is not involved as far as I know. But yes, the Rebuild movies gave the whole series a proper ending. Continuing now has the very high chance of destroying that, in my eyes.
Been quite a while since I watched Evangelion. Did they retcon Shinji jizz-hands or something?
Kind of. Spoiler free version for Rebuild: Shinji grows up and learns to take responsibility.
Mr. President, another Evangelion series has impacted the franchise
One of my favorite anime IPs written by one of my favorite creatives?
Waiter, waiter, more of this please!
