I love 0:00 to 0:11, I really want to know the corresponding accreditations for these cuts
Kanno at the start, Ikarashi for the clash, and Imaishi for the morphing?
An animator as young as ikarashi getting to work on a film like this is awesome, glad the whole industry has come to understand Ikarashi's talent.
Ichigo Kanno is more impressive, as he's been in the industry a significantly shorter time than Ikarashi, but was in this movie as well.
While Kanno is credited as KA in the official credits in his own words he only did 2nd ka here for imaishi(table fight)

If it is not annoying, could you explain to me what does 2nd Key Animation mean and what is its difference from 1st Key Animation?

1st key animation or Ichigen 一原 is when an animator draw the layout for his cut. (the layouts are generally rough drawings)
If the same animator clean his drawing, it's called Genga 原画.

2nd key animation or Nigen 第二原画 is when another animator clean the layout of the original Layout artist.

In this case Kanno "cleaned" the layout/1st key-animation/Ichigen of Imaishi for this cut.

Thank you!
Now I understand everything
Naoki Takeda said that he helped Imaishi might be 2nd KA like kanno
Shinji growing into the centre of the frame and then turning off towards the left from 0:39 - 0:41 had a layout correction by Mahiro Maeda (based on hand writing), it was then corrected again by Atsushi Nishigori (based on handwriting), the genga was done by someone else entirely, and the original layout is basically discarded.

The same unknown layout artist also did the character cuts until 0:44, however a Maeda correction is only shown for Gendou in the gengashuu. Conversely, Nishigori corrected Shinji but no evidence of Gendou in the gengashuu. fwiw, they probably both were involved in all the character cuts.
