The End of Evangelion
Until "Neon Genesis Evangelion", Gainax typically worked on stories created in-house, but the studio has increasingly developed anime adaptations of existing manga like "Kareshi Kanojo no Jijou" and "Mahoromatic". Series produced by Gainax are often known for their controversial twist endings. The "Animage" Anime Grand Prix has been awarded to Gainax for "" in 1991, "Neon Genesis Evangelion" in 1995 and 1996, and "The End of Evangelion" in 1997.
