Evangelion: Iron Maiden 2nd. The inevitable development (exploitation?) of the relevation Shinji/Anno has in the final episode of Eva TV? You know, the crazy high school hijinks. Bite that toast! Yeah! Btw, what is Anno up to these days? Besides enjoying marriage and working on Puchi Puri Yushi?

Every Evangelion game Ive played had at least any parallel plot with the original script...with the exception of Girlfriend of Steel/Iron Maiden (Adding irrelevant and confusing aspects to Shinji's personality). That's why I could't understand why Gainax try to sell this game as sequel of that bizarre and out of place G.o.S./Iron Maiden. Hopefully loos like there is no relation between both titles. No Mana this time.
Anyway, after visiting upper link I liked the way Gainax have focused the idea of including a new Girlfriend Simulator in the Evangelion script after the end of the original series.
I (as any Evan fan) am very interested in Ayanami's new personality as a normal gall after 3rd Impact (ppl who know the plot may understand me) and the way she will confront Asuka and Shinji. Thinking about ShinSeiki Evangelion lacking of mechas is interesting too.
A new PS2 Evangelion RPG, Girlfriend of Steel, sweet new ArtBooks, OST's,...good times for Evan fans :) What do you think?

Hmmm, I guess if it's what the fans want then it's good. And as Anno isn't on suicide watch again, I'm 'happy'. I would've preferred Evangelion ended with Asuka and Shinji on that beach anyway. And there's no way in hell you could merchandise that scenario.
Less negatively and never-the-less, I think it's a pretty cool idea. It never seizes to shock me what Gainax (themselves, not another company with a license) does with the Evangelion franchise. The tip of this being this game and when someone posted the HCG from the Gainax strip poker game to the newsgroups. Seeing Gendou and Touji in the buff certainly made me bite my toast.
