My thoughts: 1) With the exception of the statue and pictures of Rei, that is what everyone thought people's bedrooms would look like in the future during the 70's. 2) What button do you press to flood the entry plug bed with tang. 3) Why doesn't Japan cut to the chase and ce...

Good news, they rereleased the 12th volume of the manga.

I have found online scans of the official eva RPG. Unfortunately it is in a strange, indecipherable language from a mythical land called Cipangu, which some believe to be located on the Moon:

DO WANT

Where?!

Clearly they are harkening back to the 300 yen budget days of the series through needlessly sloppy animation.

I've gotta ask: Why do they bother with screenings in North America? Are the ten dollars in total ticket sales really worth it? Why not simply go straight to blue ray and DVD?

How does an author not have empathy for his characters? I mean they are a product of his mind.

Meta-genes were, in my mind, mutable and adaptive units of evolution. Or maybe genes that can 'intelligently' mutate -- doubling up evolution. The end-point of evolution of form for the so-called 'first replicator.' But actually, based on five minutes of research, meta genes as curr...

In this fic I've got, I've described the dummy plug cores Rei has inhabited as a mashup of Lilith meta-genes and human DNA, closer to mannequins than actual human bodies. Figured it meshed well with Rei's apparent personality and sedate emotional development (being a logical empiric...

I support keeping it as FAR for no other reason than Eva fans have an infamous enough reputation without having to deal with the baggage assorted with proto-nazi occultism. So, you get science fiction stories that explain our origin without explaining the origin of our originator, because, like you ...

There are actually a rare number of green-eyed Japanese.

I remember one time somebody didn't do research. Came up with a bunch of bullshit about some british bastard child of Fox Mulder. Legend has it his skin was flayed by a mob of angry otaku.

Those were good times.

Wow, ITT Paranoia and projection. First I'll answer the charges coming from the Asuka bloc that the ayanimists are encircling them and that we hate Asuka, before I get to the actual topic. First off, I don't hate Asuka. If you hate any character in NGE, you're missing the point. Sure she...

I've seen Japanese with freckles (albeit rarely), there are even some Japanese with green eyes but no gaijin ancestry. As for the light tan hair, perhaps it is like Misato's purple hair, meant to show a subtlely of hair color. Or maybe, Kensuke has some gaijin in him. For that matter...

Most of the people at work and at school have probably gotten used to her. She probably gets a lot of stares when she is out and more than likely is often treated coldly by others, though I think it is a combination of gaijin smash/refuge in audacity, and the fact that she is the daughter of what is...

It seems John Stewart needs to both 1) lurk moar and 2) conceal his power level.

I just want to state for the record that reading this entire thread made me curl up into a ball on m couch and start shaking violently at having my own convenient fantasies and suppositions about Eva shattered into a thousand, snarking pieces. I shouldn't even be IN this thread; I'm not SMA...

FUND IT! Though I prefer the idea of a late(which could involve all the fun of switching allegiances midway through. It could be like the JSSDF assault except it's interrupted by Patton.) or immediate post-war setting involving the canon characters, I'm not adverse to your idea. Unit...

I wonder if the american release will have actual special features for special features, and not just a collection of crappy commercial trailers for the movie?

[color=blue]There certainly is shiny robots in Evangelion but I do not recall any "moé" in the original Evangelion. (or what is considered moé) Evangelion accidentally invented moe (as well as Kuudere) in the character of Rei Ayanami. The Moe archetype is basically a cute ...
