Except Japanese kids are used to MUCH worse than that. Japanese tv is notorious for not being really censored. Hell, even here 3.33 would be considered tame compared to some stuff shown in tv. A few things about Unit-02's "Panther" design. 1. It was designed to look unsettling. Look a...

I think the dual entry plug Eva had these little spinning drones that flew around all over the place (seriously?) in a rather annoying manner and it made quite the impression simply because of how silly it looked. Man, what I wouldn't give for a good old fashioned, close quarters fight ...

Honestly OP, I'll admit I hate fanservice, but the rest of your points just make it seem like you want NGE adapted in movie form. What's the point? NGE already exists. It's not going anywhere, it has done what it was created to do. Why do you want the same thing again? Rebuild is telling...

You can't really say that the beast scene was TOO quick, consider what was happening during that scene, Asuka had limited time to remove the Vessel of Adams from the Wunder and on a split second decision, she activated the beast mode and went on a full offensive. If it was any slower she would h...

Its head is HUGE

And in my opinion its precisely the "grounded" nature of 1.0 and 2.0(and NGE on a meta-level) that makes 3.0 so shocking terrifying : we know Tokyo-3 since along time, the two previous movies had a lot of little scenes of the everyday life : the pilots at school, their life in Mis...

I think what 3.0 lost was the grounded nature of the series. NGE was a lot more terrifying in that it was happening on an Earth that still resembled something like our own, where 3.0 has drawn away from that, tearing the world into something unrecognizable. This makes the events a lot less hard-hitt...

So an update of some info for the RAH Neo Eva Unit-08 "β" with a release date set for the March 2014, and a MSRP of 24,800 yen(though it'll probably be 18,352 if AmiAmi takes off the 26% on it as well). Liking what I see for the figure's overall design, to the point I...

I'd really like to see an RAH Mark 06 to get a better look at that beasty. Such an under developed design...

Or a kitty/beast Unit 02.

Yeah they look out of proportion, their bodies seem a little too stumpy in general.

Mark.09's jaw once it regrew its head is organic, that means that its not wearing any armor in its head, it's actually its bare head! Eva3-33 C1412 jaws.jpg I actually find this observation interesting in that it shows the original design of the Eva has been done away with. That being this ...

My opinion as a somewhat newer fan to the NGE universe (I watched the TV series 4-5 years ago? and the movies in the last 2-3) might offer a little insight. I love Evangelion. Everything about it. The characters, the setting and the art assets. It's a real unique piece of entertainment. ...

Shinji come out of something without permanent mental scarring? :eatbomb: Strangely in 3.33, he seems more angry than hopeless like in EoE. In EoE, he constantly talked to himself, almost re-assuring himself of his own uselessness. This time, he understands what has happened. He isn't completel...

It's probably not much more than mecha fan service. In this case, there is no actual reasoning for the armour change, but my best bet would be simply more reliable armour/restraints (If that still counts, considering Unit-02 seems pretty happy to stay under control while unrestrained) an...

I'm glad somebody made a thread on this, I noticed that strange object on the other side of the gate during my last watch. Maybe that thing IS the elusive Nebuchadnezzar. I think I'll agree that the key has something to do with it. It definitely looks like some kind of structure what with th...

More than just his pants... If you know what I mean

I found that the air-suspended Nerv HQ upside-down pyramid had a good resemblance and throw back to Ramiel in 1.11, even (I think) being within the same location. Possible that Gendo's counter-Wunder is a recreated Ramiel? (I know Ramiel melted and all) http://imageshack.us/a/img...

Yeah, but candy pink ! If the tone of the movie was similar to 1.0 and 2.0 I wouldn't have any problem with that eccentricity, but with 3.0's super serious tone if clashes greatly. I'm aware that it's the desired effect but personally I still think it's too much. Anyway... Well ...

I wonder who will be the first company who will tray to sell it...

I think Revoltech already have done.

I did not see that coming at all, but I like it. Literally just received my RAH Unit-01 Awakening version. Was lucky to grab one on ebay, a bunch appeared on 3.33's release day. Photo of the Awakening-01 in my cabinet http://25.media.tumblr.com/04cb9dc24a87ddff5e976a9562a4015e/tumblr_mmfuhetkHN1...
