I always felt like Anno only sees the logic in things he wants to do with his work and not thinking much about how they are presented. The dude really needs an editor to reign his ideas in because he is not the strongest writer.

Trying to force a film narrative into a television format isn't going to work well because they are two different mediums. The goal of an adaptation should be to take advantage of the new medium its being translated to. His logic is that its a love letter to the original being TV, but the execution is a film with wonky pacing because a 2 hour movie obviously isn't a TV series.

I had similar issues with Shin Godzilla, but I'd get carried away going on a tangent about my issues with that film when it's not the topic.

I'm trying not to be continuously hard on Anno just because I kinda hate Evangelion, but the man's work really keeps doing the same things I have issues with.

The dude is like Kojima in a way. A somewhat pretentious, arguably self-absorbed writer whose work is visibly very auteur-driven, but also lacking in the writing department.

The main difference for me though, and why I still kinda love stuff like the Metal Gear Solid series is because Kojima's ideas can come off as so wild and goofy that it becomes charming. Anno's stuff can just come off as annoying and too self-serious.

But I'll just stop it here. I was hoping for better with this film because I do enjoy tokusatsu stuff.

Shin Ultraman also used the episodic format on its film, which I think is just another extension of Anno’s reverence tor the material. He was presented the material this way, so he wants others to be presented the material in the same way.

I'd like more details on the directorial style of this movie, because I saw the opening part of the movie (around 2 minutes) posted by Toei and I'm a bit worried now.

The action scene shown has a lot of cuts (that's Anno's style for sure) but the problem I have with it is that it's difficult to understand what's going on.
Is the entire movie shot like that?

I'd still be interested in watching this movie regardless, but I guess that explains why Gridman Universe got a more positive reception compared to this.
