My understanding is he was bitching about FUNimation being assholes for asking fansubbers to stop distributing the movie. By my understanding, what they asked people to cease and desist doing, was distributing the movie.

They mention anything about not being assholes with the cease and desist notices to fansub makers? No? Then fuck them. Why is politely (for a company) asking people to stop distributing illegal copies of a movie being an asshole? Especially when these same people who distribute the illegal ...

ADV still holds onto the Northern American rights for Neon Genesis Evangelion (the 26 Episode TV Series) and unless something's happened that I haven't heard about MANGA still has the rights for the first generation Eva films (Death & EOE). Funimation just holds the Nort...

Here's something I've been wondering Reichu, is the word Apostolos used in the proposal, or is it the way you choose to translate shito?

I thought I read that the blu-ray release was in Japanese with no english subtitles. Anyone know for sure? If so, wouldn't that be annyoing as hell (unless you have memorized what each line transalates into English). It is Japanese only, because it is the Japanese Blu-Ray, for a Japanes...

I don't buy it. I don't see her as rejecting him at all, I see it more as her realizing that she's not being rejected because she was never even accepted (if that makes sense). Just something about the way the line is read.

What if it's the opposite of the Naoko line? "Akagi Ritsuko, the truth is... I do regret some of the actions my work has required." If so, her calling him a liar is possibly even a darker form of rejection because he's finally being honest, but she's so turned against him that...

I don't buy the "I have no regrets concerning my work" idea because I don't see how it has any relevance in the context of the scene (I mean why on earth would Gendo say that, of all things, at that particular moment, and why would Ritsuko reply as she does?) Hopefully thi...

The "I have no regrets about my work" theory seems to be all thats left then... I'm not 100% on that one though. Would it leave Ritsuko in the same defeated state and how would she know that he's lying? She might be Gendo's lover, but I doubt he'd share his regrets with he...

Do you think Funimation will release the movie on Blu Ray here in the USA once the movie comes out on DVD also? I would love to watch the movie on my PS3 and HD TV. They don't have the rights to 1.11. They just have the rights to 1.01. Not's not something we can be sure about yet (or is...

Wow, belated, but: Also: Eva-00 looks like the blue model to me, too. I thinks the Yellow model. I think the reason it appears blue is because the crappy camera is trying to quickly adjust for light differences between that cut and the previous one, so that cut gets a heavy blue filter. Pretty much ...

If you think of them as Air Force instead, as you suggest, the rank of Captain makes perfect sense. Keep in mind, if you believe Google the "translator", Evas are aircrafts. I just assumed that dates were removed because it would be silly to base a series of movies around the premise that...

Secondly, a small counter: Some people have voiced support for the words "I love you" to be the answer. I disagree due to the fact he shoots her right after Ritsuko finishes her lines. Doesn't remind me of love. I agree with you here. Though the counter argument is while he loves Rits...

Point I was going to make, Damn you!

I'm pretty convinced that the line is "I have no regrets about my work".
I dunno, the argument for that was pretty convincing.

About the pylons...if it is really the old positron gun at least one pylon has been removed. I said that the unit seems the EVA-00 just for the lateral part of the head, and for the color of the arms (this time EVA-02 should have dark arms, as reported in that Newtype image). But it's o...

My attempt to make sense of a mangled google translation using HARD WORK AND GUTS (IE: my limited knowledge of Japanese and my love of Eva) THIS ALMOST CERTAINLY CONTAINS ERRORS! (but it's better than nothing) I have seen the trailer. It was awesome. It gave me chills. What I rem...

Asuka laughing at Shinji? sounds like her. She's laughing at all the Eva fans and their outrage about the changes. She be trolling us all. And at the photo... That picture really appears like it was originally at a much lower resolution, and then blown up for no adequately explained reason... :...

Maybe Mari's family name is Asagiri.
