Just last week I showed a buddy. The fourth person I've shown so far. did my standard order: rebuilds to gauge interest, then series. He found the first five eisodes to be a bit slow and hes not too keen on Shinji, says he needs to man up etc, but he enjoyed the show more when Asuka came in and ...

Not exactly a full on music video, but any fans of Toonami from back in the day should enjoy this playlist I compiled of (mostly) fan made toonami promos for Evangelion. Same music, style, etc as the old Toonami promos. Awesomeness. http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLAJyzp39MEYlXWKaaPaGz...

Well, just got back from a 3 hour drive from greensboro, NC where I saw the dub. My first time seeing an anime in a theater. Was disappointed about how small the room and screen were, literally just the blu ray in a PS3 lol. Mind was blown. Still is blown. Considering I only just first watched and m...

Heading out tomorrow to watch 3.0 in Greensboro, NC and I am pumppppeeedddd!!!! just got done watching 1.11 and 2.22 to get ready.

Well I just joined the forum (and I'm loving you people already), so you guys have to not roast me for my choice as cutest. For me, it's Asuka. I know, I know, hop on the bandwagon right? But daaaaaang I have a thing for red(ish)heads, and Asuka just takes the cake! I told my...

Just marathoned evangelion and end of evangelion after watching the 1.11 and 2.22. First evangelion experience of my 21 years on this earth. Mind blown. Amazing series. So, I figured I'd join up since you guys seem to know everything that can be known about evangelion haha.
