Re: Shin Eva - Official Social Media
I can't wait. A simultaneous release would be amazing, rather than waiting months for stateside release. The wait for 3.0 was awful (for me).

Re: Netflix English Dub Discussion
There's places where the ADV/Manga dub does have its cartoonish moments, but there's life to them at least. I think the biggest difference between either English dubs' respective qualities is the Asuka Eva fight. As someone above said, in the Netflix dub it felt phoned in. In the Manga dub, problems...

Evangelion BD Re-release
Please delete is disallowed, I've been away from the forum for a year or so, and my searches have yielded little information (sorry), so with that being said: I keep reading tidbits about another Evangelion BD release in Japan? Any details that can be shared would be appreciated. Thanks!

Re: 2019 Positivity Thread (Good things that happened, you came across, etc.)
I signed up for my final college classes recently, have two trips planned to LA (to see The Cure) and Rhode Island (to see family/friends). I just bought the BD set of Space Runaway Ideon too, which I haven't watched in full. Very stoked for that.

Re: How did you first get into Evangelion?
Still haven't watched the rebuilds because by the time I restored my interest in the franchise 3.33 had already been out for some time and had a really bad reputation among many of the fans of the original run. I think I will watch them when 3+1 comes out unless the overwhelming consensus is that i...

Re: Shin Eva - Official Social Media
3.0 is possibly my favorite Eva entry, a follow up to that, finally. Can't wait.

Re: Last Movie You Watched
Boy Erased and The Phantom Menace for the first time in ages. CGI hasn't aged well, but it's a good romp of nostalgic camp.

Re: How did you first get into Evangelion?
Saw an ad for the VHS in a Godzilla magazine I got in 1998, went out and asked my dad to rent me a few of them. Didn't get a chance to finish the series until Adult Swim's run and my friend let me borrow his EoE DVD.

Re: Netflix Release General Discussion
There's few things Khara could've taken a couple of extra steps to improve this release, but if their priority has been 3.0+1.0, then I can deal with this dub and watch my Platinum collection should it bother me enough, I guess.

Re: Netflix English Dub Discussion
I appreciate some of the more nuanced pieces the new translation brings, but, in the absence of knowing what kind of time crunch they may have been under, some time could've been spent discerning some of the better moments the ADV dub had, namely with those two lines. Those seem to be the biggest gr...

Re: Netflix Release General Discussion
Having watched more of the Netflix version, I think most of my issues are with script, translated by Khara or not, is the much talked about literal nature of it. Some parts it's fine, but others it just seems to have the character fumble about with matter-of-fact language. A chunk of it feels unnatu...

They actually fixed almost every mistranslation and poor audio choice in EoE, save for, y'know, the new dub.

Re: Netflix Release General Discussion
The whole Kaworu debate for me is that changing that line (to say nothing of "grace") to "like" changes the context. What was once among Shinji's most pure moments, where he interacted with someone free from turmoil and with complete openness, is now just a little more normal. It...

Re: Netflix Release General Discussion
I'm all about f**k those countries and their backwards ass homophobia. But kinda f**k Netflix for not taking the time to actually create comprehensive localizations too, if they were indeed worried about offending certain countries.

Re: Netflix Release General Discussion
I like interpretations, but changing it from "love" robs it of some gravitas, that Shinji killed the first person to vocalize those feelings was a massive push to his eventual breakdown. I like the vulnerability the word's use brings for Shinji, what it implies between the two, and has lon...

Re: Godzilla & Kaiju General!
KotM was gorgeous. Mothra was far and away the best part. Story is clunky, but way smoother than most of the Heisei and Showa plots.
