Re: Official "Hello/Goodbye" Thread!
Interesting to see another fan from the ANF days. Personally I've always been interested in how the fandom's intepretations have shifted over time. Hello and welcome.

Re: games like evangelion
A long time ago I read something about Takeda basically reusing dropped ideas from NGE into GoS (which might be on Evangelion Original), and wanting to outsize Mana and introduce her into NGE canon. You can find some older magazines that introduced Mana as straight-up "Shinji's girlfriend"...

Re: NTE's interpretation of the characters
It's authored by the co-directors Tsurumaki, Anno's right hand and likely candidate for a new Eva thing, and Maeda, a very notable director Anno specifically brought on the NTE project with 3.0 and Matsubara, the new character designer who apparently supplanted Sadamoto after his noodle incident, an...

Re: MariShin discussion general
It's still meant to be given leeway and one can easily interpret it any way they wish. In a recent interview with V-tuber Vivian, the sound director for Evangelion 3.0+1.0 says he did not instruct the seiyuus of Shinji and Mari to act as lovers, he interpreted their relationship to be that of friend...

Re: NTE's interpretation of the characters
I think that, much like Episode 22 before the DC, this was a more reasonable interpretation. Regrettably, -120min, I think, made her character way more attached to Shinji. Even now, however, I think we can generally think that Shinji meant a lot to her because he influenced her life so much and her ...

Re: Re-Take Fan Animation Project
Hah, I forgot I made a thread for this already. Anyway, I'd like to mention to those wondering that the project is still very much alive, and a couple more images have been posted today. Episode 1 is about 80% done and as I understand it's mostly the fight scenes that have to be finished. Either way...

Re: NTE's interpretation of the characters
What I always liked the most about NGE was that it didn't feel like the world revolved around Shinji, how Misato, Asuka, Rei and others had their whole lives independent of Shinji. Then in EoTV and EoE both one of the central conflicts is Shinji having to realize these other characters are separate ...

Re: Feedback Thread (GENERAL)
I think I generally agree with Axx°N N.'s opinions here. I have already made my opinion about the forum as a whole on this thread and others, years ago even. As of the past couple of years it doesn't seem things have changed much, so I don't know if I can add much more. Something I would like to bri...

Thank you, very well put. I do understand his point, but I am indeed wondering if he's... distressed about Anno? They talk about each other quite a bit in some interviews, and also recently, he said that "Hideaki Anno is More of a Producer Than a Director These Days" . Maybe he doesn't lik...

Re: Whats next for evangelion?
This is mostly because of franchise exhaustion at this point. Evangelion was EVERYWHERE in Japan, 3.0+1.0 was a huge sucesss, and all of that was 2 and a half year ago. 3.0+1.0 was on the media and they kept releasing statements and making events and all for over half a year. Eva showed up on Newtyp...

Re: Shinji Can (Not) Play Basketball
I think what's at play here is different standards and expectations. Now, let us recall that despite taking place in the distant future of 2015, Eva was made by Japanese people in 1995, for Japanese audiences. If stereotypically a Western, or, particularly, a US "popular" guy in middle/hig...

Re: Do you think Asuka would forgive Shinji for his actions while she was comatose?
I don't know if the right word for it is "forgive". She resents him, but the strangest part is she isn't even mad at Shinji's masturbation per se. Something we've talked about for a while is how Misato was unable to express herself and reach out to others if not for sexuality, and I think ...
