I don't find that very compelling, honestly, because I don't agree with any of them. The dolems don't particularly look like Angels, Quon is nothing like Rei, and tuning the world has fuck all to do with Instrumentality. The goals and processes involved with each are so incredibly diver...

And that makes you look like a fool, because RahXephon doesn't particularly look like Eva, and it definitely doesn't sound like it. Yes, they both feature super robots and a monster of Yes it does in some places because some of the dolems look similar and there's also some giant naked r...

Gah. Saying that Rah Xephon copied Evangelion is like saying Gurren Lagaan copied Evangelion -- it's defensible, but so what? The idea that Gillighan's Island is an allegory about the seven deadly sins is also defensible. Making an argument that Rah Xephon ripped off Evangelion is, at best,...

Or it might be that Anno and Izubuchi are friends, and know exactly what they're doing, and that in the greater context of the past 30 years of super robot anime the notion that Rah ripped off Eva is laughably absurd, as anyone with even passing familiarity with the genre would recognize. . Fre...

. . . that's not a very accurate description of what's in the show. And as I always note when people claim Rah ripped off Eva, Anno doesn't seem to think so. Though it also might just be that Anno was doing the Japanese thing and was too polite to ay anything about that. Or he may have ...

In the newest episode Fluttershy drew a Rei Ayanami pony (Also utena, Ranma, Bulma and Sailor moon ponys). So how does everyone feel about that?

So does this mean that fluttershy is canonicly an anime fan and by extent an eva fan?

And the music - surely you remembered the music? Actually, I'm a fan of RahXephon , so of course I'd say you're being more than a little harsh on it. BTW, purely for interest, have you watched Yuusha Raideen ? I saw the subbed episodes of it, last I checked they stopped subbing it about...

I'm not sure why this opinion is controversial at all but I guess it is for some reason, but it's pretty blatant that the people who made Rahxephon took a whole lot from evangelion. I mean I know that rahxephons meant to be a retelling of Raideen, but I think what really happenedis the direc...

I do hear it is explained in the manga which I have not read yet.

That's upsetting. Pacific Rim is at least a relatively fresh franchise for Western film; I'd much rather see a sequel to that than a reboot of something that's been done over and over for the last 80 years. Actually you know what'd be awesome if they do a movie where Godzilla fights...

This is the movie that we deserve but probably not the one that will be made.

He better learn from his mistakes, especially when it comes to the cast, specifically Sokka and Katara who are clearly meant to be darkskinned. But knowing him he'll probably bring back Nicola Nepotism Peltz. What litttle credibility he's managed to get back with Wayward pines is going righ...

As long as we don't have dinosaurs who ignore perfectly good food that's in their fucking mouths in order to go after the Turkish Delight that is humans I'll be happy with it. No, I'm not bitter. Why do you ask? And don't forget jumping off cliffs to get it too! As for how Kong ...

Wait what? Shymalans airbender 2 is still a thing? Well I suppose if Bay can do it with transformers 5 times anything is possible. Maybe we'll see another dragonball evolution movie while were at it.

I couldnt really get into the hellsing manga, but I did enjoy ultimate. I dunno I think the overly complicated action scenes in hellsing just translate better to animation then still manga format.

I think Rumiko Takahashi seems to be caught in a sort of idea loop where she has trouble coming up with anything new. Granted her new series Rinne does try harder then Inuyasha did but at the same time... We have Rokumon who is a less annoying version of Shippo from Inuyasha who in turn was a more a...
