That scream was also used in Diebuster in 2004, IIRC, about 3 years before Eva 1.x’s use of it in its final Angel battle.

Edit: While not the same as the angel’s death scream, this seems to be related to another one of their screams.

You should see the UHD version. The colors are even cleaner in that one. I’m not sure if a screenshot would really show the full quality on everyone’s computer screens or phone screens, but it looks vastly better than even how the Blu-ray version looks.

Honestly, it’s “vibe checks” for me. A work can be explicit without feeling exploitative, if that makes sense. No one needs to have a precise definition of what does or doesn’t feel exploitative, they just know it when they see it. But, also, most of my manga intake lately has only been “Komi Can’t ...

Well, the "they're just drawings, bro" argument only works so far. Art is a cultural expression of cultural phenomena, so what topics are being depicted and how they're being approached by the artist is important and, in certain cases, can be almost alarming for some folks. That's why I te...

@Freaky: Could you confirm/deny the green issue? I pray to the gods they color corrected correctly (redundancy lol). It's what I'd expect from khara! The "green issue" is a result of a movie being white balanced to the brighter projector technology, but not being white balanced for the di...

So for those fortunate enough to have the Bluray, what are the changes? Did they add more transition scenes and the like or is it simply a visual upgrade? I'm not noticing any differences between the Amazon Prime version and the UHD/BD discs outside of, just the inherent qualities that come with th...

Oh yeah. It's a grade A bonus short film. I'm actually surprised at how good it looks.

Well, also, these manga with teenage fan service are typically marketed specifically towards other teenagers. And I'm not about to get all weird about teenagers being attracted to other teenagers or whatever. Sometimes the creepiness of a thing is specifically how people outside of the target demogr...

Posting links to copyrighted material on the forum itself will get you permabanned, no exceptions.

Everything about these Impacts or rituals or whatever always leave things animated. Like, the particles in the core move in the ground, despite the ground itself being static. The same happens with the headless "wanderers" in Shin Eva. And the stuff that splashes onto Midori actually came ...

I have the UHD BD release! Non-spoiler images in the spoilers. https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/363888167562117120/1082729926035255326/IMG_7879.jpg Apparently when you start the disc, it announces that the film will automatically start with all handicap features on unless you press the "M...

I mean... they're just fan subs. I think it should be fine.

Yeah, I definitely feel it. This place was hopping back in the day and I had no responsibilities. (Not even to the forum! I’m still not entirely sure how I ended up as an admin.) The “Rebuild” movies certainly made a commotion in the forum. The long gap between releases at the end both saw dwindling...

Looking at the 4K Blu-ray release coming out in Japan , it looks like the film was natively rendered in 4K. (Unlike Shin Godzilla , which was an upscale from a 2K image.) Unlike Shin Godzilla, however, Shin Ultraman's 4K Blu-ray release doesn't appear to come with any form of HDR. I saw this film in...

I was expecting more changes to the Shinji + Kaworu scenes, seeing as how they were always thought to have been what pushed Khara to change everything. I'm not saying the changes made are pointless, but the changes I see here aren't anything out of the ordinary within terms of other anime dubs, so I...

I have become additional staff.

Thread stays locked.

How on earth is this movie 10 friggin years old?

I got the 4K restoration, and am about to show it to some friends of mine. I've been catching them up on Eva before the US Theatrical release. This'll be the trivia piece that ages half of them while befuddling the newbies.

Apparently the main ADV folks are in the English dub for Shin Eva.

I hear about the news via Twitter. Damn, this is gonna color my whole week. It was always a joy to hear his voice, both in Eva and in other, non-Eva works. He brings a unique warmth to his characters. Even in Nadia, his performance made the history between Gargoyle and Nautilus feel lived-in and gen...

Self-publishing a whole book is quite the cry for attention, but it’s not outside of the realm of plausibility.
