Re: EVA 2.0 OST= Kare Kano OST? WTF???

I didn't know about the early Godzilla films because I didn't watch them... but that's considered a tribute? Idk man. They all are Godzilla movies, so a remasterization of the classic soundtracks seems passable, it's just a monster movie eventually. The rebuilds also do that, they use The Beast trac...

Re: EVA 2.0 OST= Kare Kano OST? WTF???

OK. Imagine I'm a dude who is in Gainax and I make a movie, I use the 80 % of the NGE soundtrack in my movie (even though my movie has another songs) throughout the 50 % of the movie, even when the movie is tonally and plotwise different from NGE. When the press asks me, I'll say: "Hey don't wo...

Re: EVA 2.0 OST= Kare Kano OST? WTF???

It's not the same thing. Bach and others (like Pink Floyd) have done that, but the difference is, the pieces which are recycled are part of an estructure. Bach uses his previous work to include them (amongst others) within an estructured work, I mean his Mass in B minor has 4 parts, and each one has...

EVA 2.0 OST= Kare Kano OST? WTF???

I've recently watched Kare Kano and, while I was watching the show, the OST was playing and I couldn't believe it. EVA 2.0 take the majority of the songs of Kare-Kano! WOW, what an infuriating blatant copy-paste!! :um: :um: :um: I mean, not all the songs are a rip-off of course, but here's the list:...

Re: Who is the EVA character you feel most sorry for?

Definitely Rei and Asuka. They are the ones who suffer almost all the time until there's nothing else on their insides. Then they die.

I tried to feel sorry for Shinji, but no matter how hard I try, I can't :D :D

I don't know if another season is very necessary, but if they top or maintain the quality of the previous seasons this might be one of the best series ever.

Re: how conscious is Yuis' soul, within unit 01, or souls trapped within evas in general

I'm not really following your logic here. Every last one of us is influenced by the body we inhabit, so of course Yui would be as well. What gives you the idea that she's not "in control", any more than, say, you're not "in control" of your body any time it does anything against...

Re: Who's most to blame for 3rd Impact?

Well who's to "blame"? Well, I guess SEELE, but they planned third impact. So, with that said, I think Shinji is the one to really blame. The motherfucker didn't want to do anything, but he eventually did. He piloted the EVA, he let his ego barrier to be vanished, he didn't do a thing to a...

Re: how conscious is Yuis' soul, within unit 01, or souls trapped within evas in general

Why would an Eva's actual soul be incapable of ever truly controlling its own body? I agree with Kendrix in this one. The way I see it is not like Yui can't control her body, but she is influenced maybe by the physiology of the EVA, so her instincts and ways to proceed take the wild road. Still she...

Re: Why would someone place a drawing of Sephiroth's tree in the ceiling of his office?

Call me fool, but I always thought that the actual drawing of the tree was not a drawing per se, but a "magic", tangible thing attached to the real thing. My logic when I watch it is: well, it's the visual representation of the tree of sephirot, like the thing is completed. Also you can no...

Exactly. He is using force because it's the only thing that's left.

I claim that the images we see are in Shinji's head because somebody is showing them to him, and that's make more sense than the images happening somewhere somehow outside Shinji.

Re: You know what Q reminds me of?

Perhaps that was done to emphasize the isolation of Shinji, but it doesn't seem a good plan if it isolates the viewer as well. Not only isolates the viewer, but needlessly confuses him and insults his intelligence. Unlike Carkolum (or the OP for that matter), you're at least providing an explanatio...

OK, so are you saying that sexual tension comes from "not consumed sex"? Well, idk if that's the precise meaning. Here in Spain, sexual tension means "inability to express and therefore consummate sexual desires due to awkwardness or whatever". That creates the tension. If the te...
