Gainax: Difference between revisions

Line 109:

* [[Animation Bump]]: Most (if not all) of their series exhibit this.

* [[Ascended Fanboy]]: The studio was founded by a bunch of young anime fans.

* [[Asskicking Pose]]: The [[Badass Arm Fold]]. Technically only used in [[Gun Buster|two]] [[Gurren Lagann|series]] and a [[Diebuster|continuation]], it's done memorably enough to be known as the [[Fan Nickname|Gainax Stance]] in Japan.

* [[Asskicking Pose]]: The [[Badass Arm-Fold]]. Technically only used in [[Gun Buster|two]] [[Gurren Lagann|series]] and a [[Diebuster|continuation]], it's done memorably enough to be known as the [[Fan Nickname|Gainax Stance]] in Japan.

* [[Decon Recon Switch]]: A meta example: they made ''[[Gun Buster]]'', ''[[Neon Genesis Evangelion]]'', and ''[[Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann]]'' (in that order).

* [[Development Hell]]: 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 ''[[Wings of Honneamise Royal Space Force (Anime)|Wings of Honneamise Royal Space Force]]'', 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 ''[[Die Buster (Anime)|Die Buster]]'' are crossed in a [[Badass]] way (given a [[Shout Out]] in ''[[Gurren Lagann]]'' with the Super Galaxy Gurren Lagann).

* [[Fan Nickname]]: The Gainax Pose, which is where the giant robot arms from ''Gunbuster'' and ''[[Die Buster (Anime)|Die Buster]]'' are crossed in a [[Badass]] way (given a [[Shout-Out]] in ''[[Gurren Lagann]]'' with the Super Galaxy Gurren Lagann).

* [[Fan Service]]: Tons and tons of it.

Line 125:

* [[Post Modernism]]: A staple of nearly all of their works.

* [[Promoted Fanboy]]

* [[Shout Out]]: To the brim, being a studio of [[Promoted Fanboy|promoted fanboys]]. Recent works are also filled with [[Mythology Gag|self-references]].
