The Rise and Fall of Anime Unleashed
All that’s left of Anime Unleashed is the fond memories of its devotees and a few scattered pages that can be found using the Wayback Machine. The shows that aired, or at least some of them, can still be found on various streaming sites or on DVD and Blu-ray.

My uncle who works at Takeda’s Gainax Tomatoes & Eva Merch store said it’s just 15 minutes of Shinji looking directly into the camera and explaining the term “deconstruction” to the audience
A new "Evangelion" animated short film will be screened in February 2026 at the Eva Fest.
By Hideaki Anno & Naoyuki Asano (+ Kazuya Tsurumaki, Shinji Higuchi & Ikki Todoroki).

「株式会社ガイナックス」について
2025年12月10日の官報掲載にありますように、アニメーション制作スタジオだった「株式会社ガイナックス」の破産整理が終わり、法人として消滅し、その42年弱の歴史を終えました。 創設期から20年以上籍を置き、今日まで株主として関わっていたものとして誠に残念な最後ですが、静かに受け止めています。 まず、2019年、当時の代表取締役社長巻智博氏の逮捕を受け、弊社と共にガイナックス社の再建、後に整...

OK... so story time. When researching for my book, I went out of my way to not reference wikis, because they're not trustworthy. In some cases this resulted in me dropping $100, $200 on old magazines for sales data, because I didn't want to fuck up.
Seeing this get published saddens me.
