They won't even buy EVA...it would cost MONEY! (We can lend Indonesia $5
Billion and we can't show good quality animation? Shame! ^_^)

The ways of nature and of life are strange and deep. They are not to be
understood. In the midst of angers and of wars love's secret work goes on,
and binds us all by blood, and this, whether love is denied or bestowed. -
