Thanks for clarifying. It's quite a well-known fact that Shinji, and the other characters in a lesser extent, are Anno's alter egos, and thus it's a reasonable claim that the story itself reflects his struggle through near-suicidal depression. While I acknowledge that the story has such...

Both series are apocalypse series, like Ideon. However Ideon is not the 1st apocalypse strory ever told. To claim that all 3 series are unoriginal is stupid.I have not seen Ideon but Eva and Rah both develop this theme in vastly different ways from eachother and from other stories with the same the...

I dont understand why so many could bash EvaXephon, who moronically claims that RahXephon lacked originality and at the same time hypocritically do the EXACT same thing regarding Evangelion within the same post. I have a hard time understanding crazed Eva fans, but a harder time understanding those...

I dont like RahXephon...but I dont think it ripped of Eva. You describe a lot of Eva fans as being rabid morons, and I have seen a lot that fit the bill. However, those who really love Eva are able to admit that it was influenced, hell it was written and directed by a life-long otaku, and in turn E...

Simply put: This place is not worth another keystroke, and I shall illustrate that by abruptly ending this post and leaving. If that was true then you wouldn't of even told us you were leaving. Its all a matter of knowledgeable people who know what their talking about vs 1 person who thinks all...

Some examples on your abiguaity. Page 5 You say Haruka and Misato are both captains (saying Haruka is Misato's clone). However 90% of the time you contrat Haruka and Misato, its to different people, not to eachother. If it were similar (as in even copying) then the same attribute...

RahXephon was copying Yuusha Raideen[insert anime here], and Evangelion was copying Ideon/[insert anime here]. Even if those two statements are true, they are irrelevant. If RahXephon intentionally copied Raideen, that doesn't erase any of its similarities to Evangelion. If Evangelion was copyi...

Here is proof your going out of your way to say their similar. Both shows originated in Japan. Now in page to, you put the first word 1 (and not a main character at that) says damn. Then you say the first word Misato says is damn (however this applies to english only you say). Right ...

No need for a big debate. Answer is "no".

Well, actually, my idea that the scrolls were found in the Moons sprung from the initial premise that they were the ones who wrote them, ergo, they could have only been brought to Earth via the Moons. That the FAC created the Scrolls shouldn't really be an item of contention; the premise of the...

So if this first ancestor civilization sent us these scrolls along with god-knows-what-else, how did we ever learn to read the alien script? With out some sort of Rosetta stone it would be impossible to learn as none of our languages would have descended from it. It is stated that they were transla...

But consider that perhaps the scrolls are not in fact oracles of any kind. Consider that they may be simply be rough explanations, expoundings and.or warnings of what these entities in the moons are and what the consequences are likely to be if they come into contact with one another. Perhaps the s...

I would like to add a question or two also. I have read most of Reichu's works in the past few months, and it has taken up many of my hour lunch breaks. One thing I can't seem to figure out is this. Adam created the angles we know, and current humans being one of them angels. They found the ...
