* RagsToRiches: Before helping to found Gainax, Anno was an out-of-work animator and college washout. Then he and some peers made two opening videos for an Osaka sci-fi convention called DAICON, with [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2KUsRbMUpEU the opening video for DAICON IV]] proving popular enough to get them noticed in the industry. Anno, himself, would go on to work with Studio Ghibli on ''Manga/NausicaaOfTheValleyOfTheWind'' before founding Gainax and becoming a household name among anime fans.

** Anno is also a big fan of World War II history, considering most of the Evangelion characters are named after ships in the Imperial Japanese Navy or nautical terms ("Ikari" meaning "anchor" and so on). Again, this comes as no surprise as another of Anno's influences is LeujiMatsumoto (Famous for SpaceBattleshipYamato, another anime involving a World War II battleship, and [[spoiler:another KillEmAll ending]]).
