I heard it from a friend that when a few Japanese watched EVANGELION, they got home and commited suicide. I was just wondering if those kind of cases ever happened or just a damn false rumor?

I heard from a website that a young Christan attempted suicide. His mother told about it... and I forgot the URL.

after the final scene in End of Eva i know i wanted to slit my wrists. with no more Eva what is left to live for. of wait, there's Star Wars episode III. i'm saved.

in all seriousness im not surprised kids attempted suicide from watching Eva. it's very powerful and at times depressing stuff.

I read it, and it was quite amusing. I mean, it's quite strange how that christian kid didn't realize if he is in the reality and fantasy.

It's obviously fake. The person claim's to be extremely faithfuly to her religion and yet she wright's the article in the lightest of tone's? Even if she wasnt a devoted follower of her religion, she still wouldnt wright it in such a comftorable tone. Come on, your son just tried to kill himself.

Anyone who does try to kill themselves after watching Evangelion has learned absolutely nothing from it.

Don't hate the game, hate the players. Or maybe more fitting way to say it here, don't hate the series, hate the fanboys! Image
