    That’s unexpected. It does feel right up Yoko Taro’s alley, but does he have experience doing this for anime? I feel like there’d be quite a difference between games and anime in that regard

      I would say he had at least dipped his toes into anime with the Nier Automata anime.

      Also this:

      “The work I was most inspired by is Neon Genesis Evangelion. I thank you for praising NieR: Automata’s story, but actually it’s pretty much just a retelling of Evangelion”

        True

        Yeah, makes sense
