Billionaire Elon Musk of Tesla and SpaceX fame has revealed another facet to his eccentric nature: he likes anime. Perhaps too much so, because he may be planning to build a giant anime robot.
It began as an innocent tweet where Musk simply said he loves 'Your Name', a romantic fantasy drama anime with a plot that involves body-swapping teenagers. Comments flooded in, bearing questions and advice about the followers' favorite Japanese animation titles.
It turned out Musk was not only a fan of high-school magical melodrama. He also appreciates Hayao Miyazaki's modern classics 'Spirited Away' and 'Princess Mononoke', and, more importantly, 'Evangelion' – a brain-boiling series which revolves around (again) teen angst and giant fighting robot-like humanoids.
And, perhaps inspired by the commenters' enthusiasm, he then tweeted it's time to build one of his own.
