[EVA] Please say it isn't so

[Tommy Rude]

Yo, this comes from one of the head dudes at Viz comics, the dudes who put

"One of the things I love about ADV is they absolutely WILL NOT allow 
Evangelion to be aired in a butchered state."
Basically, as long as ADV owns the rights, it ain't ever gonna be Y7.
