[edit] Canon

We really need a source for this claim that Anno approved the RCB as canon.

It's Gainax copyrighted, so it's Anno-approved. Anno never complained about the RCP, and in the PS2 game "Evangelions/Evangelion 2" which Anno himself supervized, he confirms what the RCB said for example about Rei.

So it's the claim that "Anno didn't approve the RCB" that would need to be documented. Folken de Fanel 11:45, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

Gainax-copyrighted != Anno-approved. Just because Terminator 3 is copyrighted doesn't mean that James Cameron approved it. Gene Roddenberry never approved "Star Trek: The Animated Series". Don Bluth never approved any of the endless crappy sequels to "The Land Before Time". I could go on and on. Also, if you want to claim that Anno supervised or confirmed anything, you need to cite a source for that, too. Quoth the Wiki: "Encyclopedic content must be verifiable." 71.198.156.164 09:10, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

Gainax-copyrighted means Gainax made it. Where does Anno work ?

Anno approved the RCB content in various other instances, like in the PS2 game...Folken de Fanel 12:40, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

Oh, another thing... where's the source for the claim that Gainax owns the copyright? Last I heard, it was written by the same company that published the manga and wrote its error-laden "dossiers". —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.116.111.36 (talk) 04:31, 22 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Merge?

I see that there's already an entry in the media article about the book, but IMO this article doesn't have enough merit to stand on its own, given the small amount of material. I say put the information that's here in the media article. Agree/disagree? Willbyr (talk | contribs) 17:40, 17 July 2007 (UTC)
