I've heard rumours saying that Evangelion was some guys suicidal ideas drawn down. Is this true?

Thats strange...
Ya know, that DOES sound allittle Farfetched. I mean, who would waste so much time making an anime series based on suicidal ideas. Also, its too much for that.

Pretty close to that,apparently.He makes a depression inspired series,it goes BOOM! and next thing he knows it is considered one of the crown jewels of anime and has inspired something like one billion dollars in marketing.
Then the guy went on to make Ebichu,The Housekeeping Hamster,apparently no longer depressed.

Well before Evangelion, Hideaki Anno made Nadia which was also pretty popular. So I think that he may have had at least a little bit of recognition from that.
My favorite video: Grilled Steak Trigun I LOVE THE COPS! Rargh!

He produced Ebichu and two other shows as part of a collection of shows directed by women (Anime Ai no Awawa Hour)
After Eva he made Kare Kano with many of the same psychological ideas (see my video Arima Shinjikun for more info )
Then, annoyed with the perstering nature of the animation industry he went on to make two feature films, Love and Pop and Celebration Day.
All of this work has similar stylistic qualities but the content isn't exactly suicidal.
Recently he has done storyboards for Mahoro and is working in part on Gainax's new show about a girl in switzerland or austria. Not sure, I think it's a take on the princess maker games but set in europe.... but I might be totally misinterpreting what I've heard.
