Its my favorite game of all time, and I know its probably heresy to say so around here, but I found its story far superior to that of Eva's. If anything, as much as I loved Eva I was dissappointed about it not being as good as Xenogears. :lol: The gameplay certainly could be improved (and ge...

I've heard that Brain Powerd sucked, though. He claims it's not "his answer/his antithesis" to NGE, but comparisons between the two are supposedly inescapable. I wouldn't know since I haven't seen it, though it IS on my round tuit list. I watched it fairly recently for the...

I'm fairly certain the first VHS episodes came out in 1996.

If Ideon only destroyed the Bff Clansmen asnd the humans, why it is held all over the internet as the ultimate universe destroying robot? Mostly because fanboys went out of control in versus threads discussing it at places like Animenation back before it was fansubbed and before they had even seen ...

Thanks for the help. Right now I'm just interested in getting the DC episodes (which I've never had on DVD, believe it or not) and probably won't go through upgrading the entire series. I've always been happy with my Eva DVDs except for the fact that I only have the original ...

[Merch] Eva DVD Question

Should hopefully be a nice, easy question! I'm looking to upgrade my Eva DVD collection to the directors cut episodes of 21 - 24 and was wondering if someone could confirm for me if the Platinum volume 6 disc (located here: http://www.amazon.com/Neon-Genesis-Evangelion-Platinum-Collection/dp...

Re: What You Did NOT Like About Evangelion

The merits of Evangelion have been discussed at length among the Evangelion fandom over the years, and typically revolve around its perceived emotional depth, complex characters, great action sequences, links to philosophical and psychological theory, open-ended nature, and heavy contrast to other ...

Re: What if EVA had a twist ending?

Example: “OH MY GOD! MAYA WAS THE KILLER THE WHOLE TIME!... AND SHE'S A BOY!!!” Its been years since I watched the ADV dub (and never shall I watch it again), but I recall them giving her a rather manly voice in that. Add that with the short hair and for dub watchers its maybe not such ...

Very nice show. Not as good as Eva in the storyline department, but does best it in the animation and music department. And I always felt that Rah kinda got the notion of battles somewhat better than Eva by dispensing with them in much quicker fashion to allow more time for character and storyline d...

I helped Reichu with this a few years ago; we got episodes 1-4 fully done and put up and looks like the rest never got finished/put up. In any case, looking on my computer looks like episodes 5 and 6 are pretty much fully translated and episode 7 partially is. Shoot me over a PM about specifically w...

I wouldn't be surprised if James Cameron has never seen Evangelion.

Everything out there doesn't have Eva influences, sorry. Particularly considering Eva has so many themes, characters and plot elements influenced from other things.

Re: Elevating the Status of Evangelion Analysis

To this end, I propose that: 1. The fandom tries to submit focussed analyses of Evangelion to journals and get them published. This establishes powerful evidence for the depth of Evangelion with respect to existing theory and studies, given that such papers will have the green light from experts in...

Very good writing and design (not necessarily the animation itself, but the design of the Angels, Evas, etc...). Eva isn't that unique or original, but did manage to be better written than the majority of the other mecha animes out there.
