Getting to "Hideaki Anno and the Final Challenge of Evangelion"

With all the video streaming services online these days, being picky about subscriptions seems the frugal solution. When it comes to the “older anime” service RetroCrush, though, much of its catalogue leaves me aware “I’ve already bought that title on Blu-Ray from Discotek,” an older and possibly more enduring yet also more expensive path. An announcement a Japanese TV special about Hideaki Anno working on the final “Rebuild of Evangelion” movie would stream on RetroCrush did start me thinking all the same. With Sony’s consolidation of the anime industry over here resulting in it winding down the Funimation brand name it’s owned for a while for the sake of the Crunchyroll brand name it’s just acquired, I could at least keep from renewing a Funimation streaming subscription and suppose that money redirected towards an independent option. A “new subscriber special” for RetroCrush was the last push I needed.
