Hello to everyone who is still around in this sacred place!

Hi, i joined this website because Evangelion is one of my favorite pieces of media ever created. I finished the show and Eoe back in april, and it was some of the most beautiful, thoughtful, impactful moments in anime(i have not watched the rebuild movies yet, but maybe soon i will). End of Evangelion is my second favorite film of all time, just behind Blade Runner. I'm looking to discuss and meets some cool friends here:)

Hello! I joined because I recently really got into Evangelion after looking for shows/games with religious imagery, honestly I wasn't looking for an anime but this show changed that! It has became my all time favorite show in just a couple weeks because of how it covered the mentality of the characters and their struggles, and I honestly do not believe another piece of media I have watched has done that to the extent that Evangelion does. I came across this website after looking for a fan translation of one of the PS2 games, and I was blown away by how many people are still active on here

I hope i am able to make a couple friends and maybe understand the story a little more..... lmao

Welcome!

Hello I am here to share ideas and my view about Evangelion.its just that simple.

Hello to everyone.
I am messaging because I think I didn't opened up previously.
Sighh since I am feeling offcourse lonely so I am here to feel seen. .
I have been banned from reddit which offcourse has affected my many plans to post something serious things.(Don't worry it's due to vpn and constant log out etc etc. as my account has been locked for safety reasons many times and I am not given any reason as to why).
My main purpose is to share my view take views which offcourse frustrates me as I relate to Shinji so...... . You can understand it heh .
Either way I i relate both to both Asuka and Shinji(Asuka when I have to supress my suffering and showing how good I am from outside and Shinji is i am truly a Shinji you can call my 14 year old selve as Shinji in Eoe as each thing shown is kind of literal phase of mine, dehumanisation,wanting everyone to just die,wanting to die(not literally but thinking i have no future),feeling I will just ruin everything, sigh.I felt very lonely either way it will get depressed if i keep telling u.).
Either way Evangelion is the first piece of fiction that I actually ever took seriously,like really serious.I never took an anime death as anything emotional.I used to think “Meh it's for kids to cry on anime death” offcourse until watching eoe.I never took an shipping seriously.Damn how childish i am.though I am just close to be young adult.

It's not like I needed to watch Evangelion series when I started watching it(Sighh its been just 4 months damn it).Its just that Evangelion resurfaced many memories of mine.The myopic world view of world just like Shinji.The only difference is i tried to connect but people ignored it knowing I was trying to connect,it demotivated me.Until I got good friends from who I don't know why they even accepted me.But till that time I had actually decided that this will be my shonen charcter arc and I will develop and offcourse is did very well but not mature enough due to less interaction it is hard for me to interact with others as I am mostly dense and don't understand jokes(very well )(And offcourse can't frame a good joke genuinely )or when a person shares there deep thoughts and i don't have much topic to talk about.Sometimes I feel a mere child is better than me.I am afraid.Afraid of most of the things here,I am confused.
Why I love Evangelion is even if it makes me suffer because it is my mirror.Shinji a fucked up child who never gets an proper charcter development till he has to properly fuck things up(Hah narrative based biases),even when a proper guidance from good figure like Kaji can do a good job.Asuka as I have to mask off my suffering though I am usually passive like Shinji I can also act like Asuka when I am genuinely comfortable.I hate my Asuka to not get help,I hate my Shinji to be wanting to be dependent.

Sighh I feel it as an duety to live in this world.And i have no idea why I think like it.Damn I have many weird ideology.I guess it's because I am still in my head.Oh god save me since schools will be over soon and again I am afraid I will connect with others.Though I usually manage to pull it off.

So that's it.Its actually much of my embarrassment to post this as I am actually venting of a large amount of weight from my mind and telling the things I will never tell to anyone.
Thank you for reading.

Hi heh sorry idk what to say but this emoji is cool

Hello everyone! My name is Diego, I joined because I love Evangelion, the themes, characters, philosophy, and overall aesthetics. It is probably the single show that has had the most impact on my life and means a lot to me personally and wanted to interact with the community. I first watched the original series a little over a year ago when I was first getting into anime and ever since it has been my favorite anime and one of my favorite pieces of media in general. Evangelion just resonates with me and endures no matter how many times I re watch it. It really helped me see what animation as medium of storytelling is capable of doing, especially EoE, one of the most brutally powerful films I have ever watched as well as my favorite ending to any series ever. It's awesome to be apart of a community with the same interest as me especially considering I don't know anyone in my personal life who has actually seen Evangelion and I really look forward to being able to discuss and talk about the show with other people, thank you!

Welcome!

Hello!

I was wondering how did Asuka practiced with her Eva before it was completed?

Hello!

They have training mechanisms. Do you remember how Shinji was training in a simulated environment in episode 3? It's probably something similar to that.
