Equal parts love & fear of losing it, thus prove you don't need it. It seems to me you're expecting 4.0 to bomb in the fanbase just like 3.0 did. :devil: Stupid kids and their hype. Personally I think that everyone will like 4.0 more than it deserves, to prove retroactively that they wer...

No offense, but that's one of the dumbest things I've ever seen you post, xdiesp. Why thanks, here's my other cheek. :D You must be young. I suggest you move after what is fascinating and bold in the pursuit of the inner truth of this fantastic anime, and leave the meaningless details s...

And yeah the psychological stuff in the movies have been toned down a lot, and that's fine and more "realistic" to have combination of broken and healthy people in NME. (Unlike in NGE it was a bit unrealistic to have ALMOST EVERY character seriously fucked up. Not a bad thing stor...

Can't get behind the way the Wunder looks. :tongue: It's a pile of trash, which is a tried design for deep space ships but totally absurd for aerodynamics. Anno knows, as he's a master at direcitng spaceship scenes (the Wunder is spectacular even when it just steers), so he reall...

Spot on! Probably intended. I expect we'll see the full process that makes people into red eva monsters in 4.0.

Expect some big revelations when he eventually takes out his google glasses.

In SF novels, often times time travelers create the phenomena they were sent to investigate. So Instrumentality, being such a far reaching event, could retroactively create angels and impacts. All that stressing about angels being 99% human, alternate humans, could be Shinji's ego taking differe...

This reminds me of an old Penny Arcade cartoon about people liking the Witch from L4D. Because someone honestly thought she was cool, and not the horrible abomination she was designed to look like. Similarly, you are supposed to feel confrontational and even dislike Asuka, beside the fanservice, bec...

I am more concerned with Rei living in a dirty apartment by herself, when Gendo is supposed to be so attached to her wellbeing. :p

That single Rei shot, alone, imprinted the series with more meaning that the entire NGE2 lore. You have, in one, premonition and mysticism and mystery and illusion. As to what it really happens, well, that's a "welcome to Tokyo 3, I am the one looking after you".

When 4.0 hits, you will barely remember about 3.0 anymore and will need to watch it again to get up to speed with it.

God bless translators. Thank you guys!

I would have laughed out loud if one of the still functioning NERV conveyor belts were still moving endless pianos around.

Also, I would be grateful to anyone pointing out Kaworu in his EVA playing a giant sized piano.

I was there when EOE was being bashed all day long by people who downloaded fansubs of the first loli anime, so I kinda agree it's just all white noise whose lasting power in history is the usual "at first, the ignorant masses didn't get it" on wikipedia. That the ignorant, and unw...

I think it's interesting how they recycled the Israfel music practice rationale, the one thing EVA I would better forget about, to be used with the piano scene which IIRC was cut from the original 24.

Rei is being treated just like a replicant with a special one's ported memories. Tyrrell made himself one with ancestral memories from his baby niece.

Well, if the 4th impact aftermath will be about the infinity series awakening just like 3rd, it would make sense to have 4.0 analyze both the present battle and the past one in 2015 through flashbacks. It would be just hilarious is the infamous 3.0 preview actually proved to be about some 4.0 flashb...

Man, what a cop-out! I guess Sadamoto was really exasperated with his fanfiction and wanted to do away with it.

T_T

Can anyone translate it again?

EVA is revolutionary and progressive, when it comes to female casting. Tv shows in the West don't get close to the female quota of this anime (gaming is far worse...). And really even when they do, it's one of those by women for women shows which thoroughly cheat you (they don...
