Re: The Script for Rei and Kaworu at the Train Scene
The script addressing Kaworu and Rei as 男女 would be very much on point, if the specific line is referring to that cut of them on the other side of the station. At that point of the story they matter so little to Shinji they are just "a man and a woman".

Re: MariShin discussion general
Let's all calm down a bit here. Invocations of Hitler and genuinely fascist plot points like in AoT are completely out of proportion to the topic discussed and neither called for, nor helpful to the debate. FYI I was referring to this absolute insane line in AoT, not the actual real-life comparison...

Re: MariShin discussion general
And after this scene, he dies permanently. Your point? The act of dying is not a retribution nor a reward in itself. Everyone will eventually die, it's natural. What is morally charged is how he dies. And he dies a proud, noble death as he sacrifices himself for Shinji while reuniting with Yui. And...

Re: MariShin discussion general
Gendo initially wanted to be with Yui for eternity in a post - Instrumentality world. He doesn't get the happy ending he wanted. Last time we see Gendo in EoE https://i.redd.it/jfvfvt5iff5b1.jpg Last time we Gendo in 3.0+1.0 https://i0.wp.com/codigoespagueti.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/La-foragi...

Re: MariShin discussion general
It's "ethically disgusting" for what reason exactly? Because instead of decapitating Gendo it gave him a chance to answer for his actions, understand just how wrong he was, and genuinely regret for his deeds before he died? Because he was allowed to complete his last wish to "kill Go...

The morality of Gendo in NTE
NGE isn't much less "heteronormative" than the Rebuilds, and the Rebuilds' relatively larger focus on this aspect doesn't damage the characters. In my eyes, Shin reuniting the Gendo-Yui-Shinji family for a final happy send-off is insulting to both Shinji and Yui's characters and ethically...

Re: MariShin discussion general
Just the fact that there are heavy romantic implications between Shinji and Kworu in 3.0 and not only is evidence that the Rebuilds aren't pushing some supposed anti-gay agenda like the user I replied to was suggesting. That's all I'm saying. I can't name an openly gay character in Rebuild. I can h...

Re: MariShin discussion general
The spacing of the characters in the poster (Mari-Shinji, Gendo-Yui, Misato-Kaji, Toji-Hikari) is indicative of what the pairing are. No amount of poorly hidden backtracking done with extra media and interviews can change what the movie strongly hints. I was genuinely expected Mari to end up with As...

Re: Shin Eva - Official Blu-ray Release 2022!
Here in Italy the Prime Video version has a dub and the theatrical/home video version has a completely different dub.
It could be less expensive to make a new dub than license the Amazon dub.

Movie budget was 3.265 billion yen. https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/363888167562117120/1133771833380974743/20230726_114413.jpg?width=399&height=468 Pretty "low budget" compared to my probably overinflated expectations. Kaguya-hime no Monogatari had a 5 billion yen budget for ...

Re: What about 3.0 and 3.0+1.0 CRC?
Hey folks, I just want to say I will probably be able to get the interviews transcribed not long after release, and we should be able to get translations going soon after. I'm personally very interested in what they have to say but I'm sure it'll be a pretty massive body of text. So if you think/kn...

Re: NTE's interpretation of the characters
Honestly I think I can count the number of scenes in the four movies that do not include Shinji or are not about other characters talking about Shinji with a single hand.

Re: Do you not like how Asuka’s arc was resolved?
To be completely honest, to this day (more than 2 years after the movie released), I genuinely have no idea what is the core message of the Rebuild. In the last movie, I think the "care for others", "stop running away from pain" and "move on" were pretty obvious messag...

Re: Do you not like how Asuka’s arc was resolved?
It's hard not to feel as if, in doing this kind of undoing, there's some tacit disapproval of the prior narrative and its conclusions and even its journey. But because so much of the original had actually raw human relationships, it almost seems as if NTE is taking a stance against the very concept...

That's really useful to be honest. You can't confuse the good character from the useless fanservice dispenser.

Re: Rebuild Ending encourages viewers to embrace reality less than the EOE ending
What’s wrong with Asuka? Nothing new, but the fact that the movie goes out of its way to: - make her wear a latex fetish ripped plugsuit on the beach - not allow her to make a decision for herself or even speak at all - hide her more normal, not perverted adult look in the background in the train s...

Re: Rebuild Ending encourages viewers to embrace reality less than the EOE ending
The problem of the ending is simply that, on a very basic level, it is not a satisfactory ending and it's carried by the emotional pay-off of seeing the pilots all grown up and happy in a normal world (except Asuka, fuck her specifically).
