Darn. I read the title thinking there was a boat in the article. Now I can't say Nice boat. Fishing gear looks cool.

After all that time stressing out in the EVA, a fishing trip just might what Shinji needs.

After all this time, it turns out that all Shinji really wanted was to go fishing with his dad.

Didn't Anno, that piece of shit, ruin Gainax because he was angry over some pachinko merchandise? Filthy hypocrite.

This is terrible if the sea was orange when Shinji was fishing in it.

Oh, Eva merchandise, you'll truly never stop.

Rather curious (and not in a confrontational way, just to be clear) what this is referencing, if I may ask? I know Anno left to start Khara* and seem to remember some bad blood between the two, but I don't remember hearing about that.
*Edited for accidentally writing Trigger.

Anno isn't involved with Trigger - that was a younger cohort of ex-Gainax folks IIRC (Hiroyuki Imaishi, Yoh Yoshinari, etc.); Anno went on to form Studio khara.
The only pachinko merchandise rumor I can think of that sounds anything like what redranger is saying was that several years back, Gainax licensed a Royal Space Force (Wings of Honneamise) pachinko machine, and this caused a major rift with some of the older ex-Gainax folks, since Honneamise was always supposed to be a pure artistic thing for them. Any of their other properties were up for merchandising, but that one was supposed to be special. But I hardly think that "ruined" Gainax - if the rumor I saw was correct, the reason they even did that is because financially Gainax was already in a rough spot, and it wasn't just a blip - they didn't have a lot of prospects.
It's been so many years since I saw that claim I don't even know if I could find a source for it again...

See, all I can picture right now is a Moyoco Anno-illustrated 4koma of her husband kicking a Nadia pachinko machine and screaming, "give me back my damn money" at it. Then, the final panel is the Gainax building with a "GOING OUT OF BUSINESS" sign.

I facepalmed at myself when I read your response, I can't believe I wrote Trigger instead of Khara. It's been a long day. I really appreciate your response/information. (and the nice correction of my flub.)

Blessed is this day in which I learn there exist tools built only to grapple with fish. As harrowing as our times can be, they still remain enlightened.
