You're telling me that you can't just keep making remake of Evangelion forever and survive?

If I recall those were entirely outsourced and Gainax existed just to license it, fail to pay the animation studio royalties, and get sued.

Those were all Studio Khara, which Anno spun off ages ago. I think the last thing that Gainax did was the weird Subaru car company sponsored show Wish Upon the Pleiades.
