Now Viewing: gainaxTag type: Copyright A Japanese animation studio founded in 1984 by Anno_Hideaki, Sadamoto_Yoshiyuki, Akai Takumi, Higuchi Shinji, Okada Toshio, and Takeda Yasuhiro. It has created numerous anime original works as well as adaptations of manga. Their first notable work was Daicon III and since then, they have created both serious and contemplative works like Evangelion and Ōritsu Uchūgun: Oneamisu no Tsubasa (Wings of Honneamise) as well as over the top and outrageous anime like Panty and Stocking and FLCL. The founders of the studio are passionate anime fans and Okada used to describe himself as an otaku king. Accordingly, Gainax's work is often filled with references to other anime and non-anime sources. They have a tendency to create bizarre or larger than life coming of age stories. Although their work is generally well liked, the studio has a notorious reputation for creating bizarre and controversial endings to their work with the ending to the original Evangelion TV series being one of the most famous examples.
