I don't know how I feel about this. Love me some Eva, love me some Yoko Taro, but why can't we just let things be? Can you really top the original series? Why not have Taro make some NEW property, or something?
That being said, I didnt really even like the Eva Tetrachy (and especially what they did to Asuka's character in it), so I am probably not the person to ask!
At least it is new and not just a remake where Shinji is gay, Rei is a tranny, Misato gets BLACKED and the Angels are actually all peaceful refugees coming to bring Japan the gifts of cultural diversity and authentic ethnic food.
Shinji isn't really gay, he's a broken-down teenager who strayed into the gay under mindbreaking psychological pressure. Also his canon pairing is Asuka. Mari if you go with the rebuilds
I'm gonna piggyback with this too. Also to note that Karou may have given Shinji the friendship and compassion he's always wanted but Karou is a Angel and used Shinji to break through NERV just like any other Angel would. Karou is a spy that used compassion to achieve his goals, a master manipulator at the end of the day.
The answer is of course: Because it will make money.
They could try making a new series with different characters, but then people aren't going to be as interested because it's not what they already know they like.
