Gainax is known for impressive visuals, gripping storylines, confusing plot points, and running out of money before the series is finished. This last tendency has been a particular problem in the past; the last episodes of Gainax series tend to be [[Off-Model|lower in quality]] and take a lot of shortcuts. The last two episodes of ''Evangelion'' were produced when the studio had been cut off by the main sponsor, and mostly [[Stock Footage|reused clips from previous episodes]] with different dialogue. Still shots are frequent as well. The final episode of ''Top o Nerae!'' (also known as ''Gunbuster'') is due to the black and white presentation often thrown into this bin, a common misconception as the black and white animation was actually more expensive. Thankfully, they seemed to have learned their lesson by ''[[Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann]]'' (see below).

As a small note, they have a good relationship with [[Production I.G]], who did quite a lot of work on ''[[Neon Genesis Evangelion|End of Evangelion]]'' and ''[[FLCL]]''. The director of ''[[Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann]]'', ''[[Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt|Panty and Stocking With Garterbelt]]'', and one episode of ''[[FLCL]]'' also worked with [[Production I.G]] on ''[[Dead Leaves]]''.
