Cause of depression?

[edit]

"...following a four year period of depression from Nadia" - should this read "after Nadia" or did working on that anime actually cause his depression? I have to admit, after reading the Nadia article, I could see either one being the case. - RedWordSmith 06:48, Nov 14, 2004 (UTC)

> Hideaki Anno was hired by the scrappy animation studio Gainax as an animation director for their first feature length film

GAINAX probably shouldn't be referred to that way, since they only became 'scrappy' post-Honneamise. It WAS the most expensive anime film at its time, after all.

In my experience, there is no real 'cause' to depression. Sure, there are any number of possible triggers - could be something big, could be something small. Mostly, though, depression is a genetic/cognitive disease, something that turns a person's life sour, generally no matter what they're going through, or what they're doing. See the article depression for more information. --Brasswatchman 20:05, August 31, 2005 (UTC)

Rumors of mental breakdown

[edit]

Is there any truth to the rumors that Anno was institulationalized for about half a year following Evangelion? Or is it more likely that this is a rumor based on the depression he experienced prior to it?

I gather the work on Evangelion was pretty stressful, and it's possible he needed some additional therapy after that. He directed His & Her Circumstances though, which was released in '98 (after the Evangelion movies were released in '97). So it may be more likely this is pure rumor, I don't really have any evidence either way.

--'Kash 02:08, 22 Apr 2005 (UTC)

I've never heard that before, and it doesn't make any chronological sense (he had time after End of Eva to make Love & Pop, start His and Her Circumstances, AND have a mental breakdown?). Probably someone got confused over the psychological issues he had before Eva. -℘yrop (talk) 15:51, Apr 22, 2005 (UTC)

That would be my guess, but I was wondering if he could have had the breakdown in between finishing the Eva series and releasing the films, which could have something to do with the schedule issues, and why they had to release Death & Rebirth (since End of Eva wasn't done yet). It's probably more likely that people got confused by the issue of his depression prior to Eva, though.

I've heard rumors of this as well, but I have never seen them verified in any form, and if something like this was true, you would certainly see in written all over the place. DirectorStratton 05:46, July 28, 2005 (UTC)

Question Regarding Name

[edit]

Would anyone who knows or understands Japanese be able to give me a breakdown of whatever various "meanings" might be behind Mr. Anno's name? For one thing, is "Anno" an adopted stage name? I tend to associate it with the Latin word for "year," as in anno dominus, but that could just be a result of my cultural background. Anyone know anything about this? Thank you. --Brasswatchman 20:07, August 31, 2005 (UTC)

It's his given name. "Anno" is a moderately common Japanese family name, no relation to the Latin.

yes it is a common name which is not related to the Latin word. However it's his family name (surname), not given name. Frigoris (talk) 14:42, 22 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Filmography

[edit]

Should the Filmography just list all the movies he's worked on, or should they tell what his role was in them? He was just an animator for Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind, not a creator of the story in any way.

It says that "Anno began his career as an animator for the anime series The Super Dimension Fortress Macross" and yet that isn't listed in his Filmography. So, are we going to include everything he ever worked on, or just the works he played a significant part? Dream Focus 04:36, 18 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I've cleaned up the section a little, but I'd like others to take over with info I don't have. Xenofan 29A 20:42, 29 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Ebichu

[edit]

Is the filmography incomplete? In his little essay at the end of Neon Genesis Evangelion, volume 10, Carl Horn mentions: "1999 continued Anno's ventures into the feminine subjects with both his first live-action film, Love and Pop (available from Kino Video), which looked at modern ko-gals with surrealistic empathy, and the outrageous and as-yet-none-dare-to-release Ebichu Minds the House, adapted from Risa Ito's comedy manga for women office workers!"

The article doesn't seem to mention any Ebichu thing though. --Gwern (contribs) 22:26 16 April 2007 (GMT)

Anno was supervisor of Ai no Awa-awa Hour, the program of which Ebichu was a part. Other than planning, he wasn't directly involved in Ebichu...I think? Xenofan 29A 20:43, 29 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Vegetarian

[edit]

Is it really that important that his vegetarianism be mentioned in the very first introductory sentence?

Nope --h2g2bob (talk) 21:32, 6 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Now I'm wondering if it's worth it to have a trivia section with the 1 piece of trivia being he's a vegetarian. I think we could just remove this trivia section, it's ugly and doesn't seem to make much sense to have this section for 1 piece of information. What do you guys think? If no one objects i'm going to remove the section. Elhector 23:29, 4 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Missing bibliography?

[edit]

"Anno is evidently a big fan of Kenji Tsuruta`s work who drew a shoujo title called The Spirit of Wonder.He even edited a book called `Early Works of Kenji Tsuruta`."

Manga Impact

[edit]

Manga Impact: The World of Japanese Animation, 6 December 2010, ISBN 978-0714857411; pg 16:

Anno Hideaki was born in 1960 in Yamaguchi. Fresh from his education at the Osaka University of the Arts, he took part in several projects during the Eighties, first under the label of Daicon Film and then Studio Gainax. His production debut was the popular video series Top o Nerae! Gunbuster (Gunbuster. 1988) and his narrative technique showed interesting signs of individuality in The Secret of Blue Water (1990). However it was with the television series Neon Genesis Evangelion (1995) that his reputation was cemented.
Excessively creative, Anno abandoned Studio Gainax halfway through the series Kareshi Kanojo no Jijyo (His and Her Circumstances, 1998) to explore live-action cinema. His first outing was Love & Pop (1998), an adaptation of a novel by Murakami Ryu, followed by Shiki-Jitsu (a collaboration with director Iwai Shunji) in 2000, and an adaptation of Nagai Go's Cutey Honey in 2004. The three feature an experimentation that clashes somewhat wit the formal rigor of the best sequences of Evangelion, due to his eccentric and contradictory personality - he unites Zen suspense with a video-clip aesthetic - and an otaku who sets his sights on the china of the masters. Anno has demonstrated that it is possible to express poetry and style within the framework of the television series and free it from the bonds of the genre. In 2006, he established Studio Khara. His recent works include Evangelion 1.0: You Are (Not) Alone (2007) and Evangelion 2.0: You Can (Not) Advance (2009), both studio Khara productions.

Occupation

[edit]

Businessperson is a very vague occupation to place here, given someone who has worked across various roles within the sector, this seems too ambiguous to mean anything. Businessperson quite literally just means he "does business", and it coming after a long list of other occupations seems out of place. Is there no better way to describe the role that was intended here? Was he an executive and if so replace with what kind of executive, maybe? 2601:18C:CC00:B6B0:61EC:9505:F3A8:8666 (talk) 19:45, 12 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Mistakes in filmography

[edit]

As far as I know, Anno did not direct Sugar Sugar Rune or Petite Princess Yucie (under TV), and he was not only producer, but also wrote Giant God Warrior Appears in Tokyo. 95.223.72.187 (talk) 02:03, 21 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
