Why not just make a new series?

People use that same argument for Gundam LOL.

But I looked up on the Eva wiki and aside from the movies and the series, msot of the Evangelion stuff has been recompilation.

Oh and why they don't make a new series. Because Evangelion is ridiculously popular for one series and Gynax wouldn't want to have it any other way. If they made a successor or new series that had a different plot, they view it as a risk that could ruin the insane amount the get from currently existing stuff. That and Anno is crazy so..... yeah.

You mean like teenager kids, or kids kids?
