Khara issued an emergency statement denouncing Japanese media for linking EVA and GAINAX suspects

Khara, the real holder of the intellectual property rights of the famous IP "Neon Genesis Evangelion" (EVA), has just issued an emergency statement, angrily accusing the Japanese media of linking EVA and GAINAX suspects to attract readers' attention, and solemnly declaring that all intellectual property rights of "Neon Genesis Evangelion" have nothing to do with GAINAX Company.

·Today, many media outlets reported the scandal of GAINAX (related report). The company's president, Tomohiro Maki (50 years old), was arrested by the police for semi-forced indecent assault. Although the media claimed that "Neon Genesis Evangelion" was the representative work of GAINAX, Khara obviously did not agree with this.

Khara Company solemnly declares:

We hereby solemnly protest the fact that many media outlets today reported that GAINAX President Tomohiro Maki became a suspect by associating the word "Neon Genesis Evangelion". Any series including "Neon Genesis Evangelion" (EVA) has nothing to do with GAINAX or the suspect, and the original director and chief director of the "Neon Genesis Evangelion" series, Hideaki Anno, and the deputy director Kazuya Tsurumaki, have no contact with Tomohiro Maki. In fact, GAINAX no longer has any rights to the intellectual property rights of "Neon Genesis Evangelion".

In addition, "Neon Genesis Evangelion: 3.0 You Can (Not) Redo" scheduled to be released in June 2020 will not be affected by this incident . Finally, condolences are expressed to the victims.
