As for Anno the Genius vs. Anno the "ahem" fanboy? I wonder if once
was enough for him? Maybe he doesn't want to be that vulnerable
again?
As I've said previously, NGE amounts to Anno working out his issues
with his father. He's done that now, so he literally *can't* do it
again. He did it the first time for himself, not the work. Now that
it's done, there's nothing left to do. <shrug>
Yep, I saw that after I had sent my post. I'm not used to so many
messages on the GML ^_^
I've also heard the Gendo may represent Hayao Miyazaki, whom Anno
worked under and highly admired. Miyazaki is a savage perfectionist
and nothing Anno did seemed to be good enough for him. After hearing
about Miyazaki's public thrashing of his son, this theory gains some
credibility in my eyes.
