You have a specific objection to old people?? What will you do when you're old?

Mari radiates the kind of easy competence that survives even in defeat; I don't see any sacrifice for her - she's more likely to be the last person standing to deliver the epitaphs for everyone else. As Shinji, by the nature of the story, will also survive, she may well see him off with some...

Guys who grow a moustache IRL for charity is one thing (there's one in my office) - but on avis? Nah, not interested.

I'm not into the sort of shows that contribute people in most of these categories, but here are my thoughts... Team Leader - Haruhi Suzumiya (crazy ideas, but boy, do people do what she says) Brawler - Shinji Ikari (slow to get worked up, but have you seen him when he's riled?) Weapons Expert - Kino...

Telling stories by instalments is as old as history - it's the impatience and short attention span that's modern!

There's no reason not to watch the story so far; after all the films have been released for watching, not for putting on a shelf.

Was reflecting on life since my heart attack: changed my sig (from Magical Shopping Arcade Abenobashi).

Basically, it's a fail-safe for any compromise of the remote or in any case where something needs to be stopped in a split second and there are no other options. The choker was most likely automatically activated when Kawuro became the 13th Angel/exhibited Angel qualities because of this/activa...

But also arbitrary and non-selective; and with the intention of exterminating the said demographic. Neither of these applies in the case of abortion.

Er, no? No, it doesn't.

Just at the point it moved up a gear, then. Well, each to his own, I guess.

Wasn't the "petit" term used for some 90sec Eva cartoons, which raise a smile but have no real interest? Do we know this is any different?

Do you advise me to stay away from spoilers, then? Well, it looks to me as if the choice is to wait in anticipation and risk being disappointed, or spoil yourself and save the trouble. But ignore me, 'cos I haven't seen it (I'm doing a bit of a Tines on Rebuild here, I guess!). ...
