Reviews come, and sometimes they don't. It just...depends.

You come off as belligerent, with a single-minded focus on a fictional character's negative traits in a way that can be very tiring.

...why would you glare at EITHER of them? You've completely missed the parable of the Hedgehog's Dilemma. Both of these kids are damaged, both of them failed to actually make a connection with each other. Asuka failed Shinji by being unable to express her affections or needs in a way that wasn't lay...

...If shipping Heinkel and Seras is wrong, then I don't want to be right.

Will no one think of the rights of fictional characters!?

Can't get much more straightforward than that.

Much obliged!

....interesting angle!

I'm generally skeptical of plural relationships, but that doesn't mean I see them as unworkable or impossible to implement. In the very least, they make for good story fodder. I'll give it a look.

I'm an AsuShin shipper as many know

One of the many reasons I like ya!

Of course! It begins! ...Infidelity, by the very definition of the term, is cheating. It is actually a SYNONYM for cheating. It is used in legal documentation to describe the act of cheating on a spouse. So...yeah, infidelity is as bad as cheating because it's the same...thing. If you want an open r...

We DID answer your questions, but they kept looping around: you basically kept asking the same question in different ways over and over, and I think we've all felt we've covered ground that is either covered in detail elsewhere on the site, or is still being discussed in separate threads. At this po...

...didn't you just spend several weeks complaining about the way Marvel movies are being made?

Brick, here is glass house.

Le sigh.

VUX, are these actual ideas that you want to see stories attached to, or are you just spitballing?

Ray: A perfect picture for all occasions!

Hey, you guys, look on the bright-side: at least you all have the opportunity to go out and find a cuddle-partner! I have to postpone any and all thoughts of intimate activities (sexual or otherwise) until NEXT Valentine's Day.

There is, but it was really weird that you used my quote to justify the answer, when there was nothing in the quote indicating anything one way or the other. It was strange because there was no tautological connection between the quote and the statement, and looked forced. It was like saying, "...

It COULD be! :asukahearts: The traditional 3-act element within a character arc (inciting incident, rising action, falling action) means that the end of one CAN lead to another (and, in fact, any good, long term character arc is, in fact, multiple character arcs stretching towards an ultimate conclu...

Because what you're talking about is character development, which is an element of a character arc. The stuff that you're talking about with Asuka takes place during the 'falling action' phase of a character arc, following the penultimate moment of the character's story. Asuka's arc was concluded wi...

Asuka as a hip-hop fan?

...I could see it.

In terms of story telling, though, that's supposition. We don't entirely know why she returned from Instrumentality, beyond what we can infer (which is pretty good estimate, either way). You have to remember, though, that a character arc doesn't have to come to an end in a way that constructively fu...
