Date: 1998/11/08 WHAT THE AVANT GARDESMEN[*0] HAVE TO SAY Anno Hideaki vs. Ikuhara Kunihiko text by Kimata Fuyu photos by Higuchi Hiroaki [translation by Mark Neidengard, from Newtype Magazine, October 1998] Constantly injecting new stories and excitement into the business, Anno Hideaki and Ikuhara Kunihiko discuss the state of anime production. Perfected, only to await collapse?! Amidst such unfavorable circumstances, they discuss their thoughts and hopes as members of the literary avante garde[*0]. "There isn't anyone trying to make 'me-anime' now, is there?" (Anno) WHAT IS THIS NEW METHODOLOGY OF ANIMATION? [Ikuhara] I know "KareKano" ("Kareshi Kanojo no Jijou") is just about to start, but have you decided on anything like a regular style? [Anno] Regular style? [Ikuhara] Something like a set pattern. [Anno] No, not really. I haven't decided, or should I say, it hasn't come to me yet. [Ikuhara] Did you think of making it at the outset? [Anno] Somehow, nothing but an inkling came to me. There was no epoch-making "That's It!" Although, I _am_ thinking of stopping being limited by the bounds of time and space. (brief silence) Let's see...methodology... For "KareKano", if I try to do interesting things with a methodology that doesn't depend on the number of cels, it'll turn out just like "EVA". I'm tired of reusing cuts and depicting using freeze-frame rhythm. That was how I did "EVA". It's what I did since the "Top (wo Nerai!)" days. But, not counting on the number of frames, the methodology that shows things most effectively is exactly that. It's not a new methodology at all. To put it bluntly, settling into creatorhood may let you stay alive in life, but I just can't stand the thought. [Ikuhara] Can't stand it? [Anno] Yeah, can't stand it. Maybe it's okay for people over 50 to get set in their ways as creators, but I intend to fight it as much as possible
