* [[Development Hell]]: The ''Evangelion'' movie they, [[ADV Films]] and [[WETA]] were supposed to make.
** The ''Evangelion'' movie they, [[ADV Films]] and [[WETA]] were supposed to make.
** They were also supposedly working on some other ''[[Gurren Lagann]]'' projects which ended up in [[Development Hell]].
** Still ''nothing'' beats ''Aoki Uru'', a planned sequel to the ''[[Royal Space Force: The Wings of Honnêamise]]'', which supposedly started initial pre-production ''back in 1988''. So far the only output from this project seems to be a brief scenario draft and the couple of (admittedly spectacular) artbooks by Yoshiyuki Sadamoto. They still reportedly plan to make it somewhere in the future.
* [[Fan Nickname]]: The Gainax Pose, which is where the giant robot arms from ''Gunbuster'' and ''[[Diebuster|Die Buster]]'' are crossed in a [[Badass]] way (given a [[Shout-Out]] in ''[[Gurren Lagann]]'' with the Super Galaxy Gurren Lagann).
* [[Playing Against Type]]: Out of all the Japanese animation studios available to adapt the ''[[Hanamaru Kindergarten]]'' manga into a TV show, the choice of Gainax comes as something of a surprise. Then again, does Gainax even have a type? Even considering their [[Gunbuster|most]] [[Neon Genesis Evangelion|popular]] [[Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann|creations]], it's ''very hard'' to find an overarching theme. Blurring the line between [[Deconstruction]] and [[Reconstruction]], somewhat thoughtful explorations of human nature, and tons and tons of [[Gainaxing|big breasted women]] running, really tons of sexual humor in general. The fact that Gainax would adapt ''[[Hanamaru Kindergarten]]'' is itself [[Mind Screw|Gainaxian]].
* [[Promoted Fanboy]]: The studio was founded by a bunch of young anime fans.
* [[Trope Namer]]: Studio Gainax is responsible for the following:
** [[Gainax Ending]]: Though to be fair, a lot of their more recent shows have tried to avert this. Fully an [[Ascended Meme]] too.
** [[Gainaxing]]: [[Misty May]], those shiners aren't going to heal if you keep jogging...
