The Japanese federal government revealed 688 receivers as well as 20 companies of the Medal of Honor for the springtime of 2022 on April 28.
21 receivers of the Medal with Purple Bow, granted to those that have actually made impressive accomplishments in the areas of academics, sporting activities, society as well as the arts, consisted of Hideaki Anno, a movie director/producer that dealt with the Evangelion collection as well as various other jobs. In the past, Isao Takahata ( Tomb of the Fireflies), Katsuhiro Otomo ( AKIRA), Rumiko Takahashi ( Ranma 1/2, Inuyasha), as well as Masaaki Yuasa ( Maintain Your Hands Off Eizouken!) got the exact same honor.
Anno'' s manufacturing business khara has actually published his remark as listed below:
Till I was called by the Company for Cultural Matters, the difference in between the Order of Advantage as well as the Medal of Honor was vague. I am a helpless otaku that the very first point that enters your mind when I consider the Medal of Honor is the "Robotan's Song" as well as "Robotan's March" in 1966, as well as I was puzzled regarding whether I need to approve such an honor, yet I believed my moms and dads as well as grandma, that currently died, would certainly delight in, so I gratefully approved it.
I want to thank my partner as well as close friends, the movie staff as well as actors, as well as all the followers that sustain computer animation as well as unique results for this honor. Thanks quite.
I will certainly remain to be associated with the development of fascinating anime as well as tokusatsu jobs as well as advertise the archive organization to make sure that we can return the support to the anime as well as tokusatsu society. Thanks for your constant assistance.
