What was it like?? Do you want to know what it was like for me?? Well then I'LL TELL YOU! :grin: During my first viewing, I kept fast-forwarding through different scenes, because I just didn't know what to make of it. My mind was being completely f ucked. I had to go through different studio...

Anti-hero? Lolwut? The Punisher is an anti-hero, Deadpool is an anti-hero, Deathstroke is an anti-hero.


Batman and Wolverine are also anti-heroes. But you don't need to be a total badass in order to be an anti-hero. ;)

It's my favorite anime of all time. But my current favorite anime, would have to be "Cowboy Bebop." :grin:

I've began wondering if emo is even a real thing or just a broad term that covers a whole lot of really common personalities and problems. If angst and depression are emo then emo has been around for hundreds of years. Very true. But EMO kids at school like to garner attention, by cutting thems...

Personally, I thought he looked depressed during my first viewing. Now I think he wants to shoot them(lol).

All I know is, I find it odd myself considering other anime series don't seem to be as criticized as harshly as Eva is. I get the feeling Eva's treated in a polarizing way that's similar to how fans view Shinji: You either love it or you don't. That's the reason! I'v come to...

I also agree with the person who said the theme song... has to be the /BEST/ anime theme song out there. ;D


The theme song is great, but it doesn't compare to the theme song of "Cowboy Bebop", or "Ergo Proxy." Atleast not in my opinion. :grin:

Re: My fav scene

unlike the ending of EoE, which left me with a hollow, empty, sad feeling inside "EoE" is a sad, and sometimes a depressing experience. But I don't see how anybody could say the ending hollow, or empty. That film is full of emotional depth, that never becomes melodramatic. And it is d...

Re: How I fell in love

EVA left me with an empty feeling inside because of the ending of the TV series and EOE. Then, Rebuild came out to save the day. I can't wait for the others to come out I think both endings were very fulfilling for me. I think the one thing that made me sad, was that it was over. I wanted to se...

Please edit your posts instead of double-posting. A way to denigrate anything different and anything they don't understand. EXACTLY! That's why when you go to IMDB, and try to post on one of David Lynch's films. You will usually find the word "pretentious." And I usually assum...

I liked MAGMADIVER it showed the characters in a different light and had a A/S moment when he jumped in to save her I agree, and that's why I like the episode. It has some memorable moments. But to be honest, you could take that episode out of the series, and it wouldn't hurt a damn thing. ...

I agree the finale of Rah is excellent on its own but less than it could've been. If they had only built it up better it could have been something special. That's why I only mentioned the visuals. It's not like anything else was worth mentioning in my opinion. I still haven't figure...

Wow i started a thread which turned out well, personally i found rah quite boring and stoped watching half way through, i think after watching eva eva becomes the only deep anime with mecha and mythology, other just dont do it.

I finished "RahXephon" a month ago. And it was basically "Evangelion" for stupid people. I liked it, but it's simularities to "Eva" was just distracting. It had the train motif, and even a hand motif at one point. The characters were basically carbon copies from the...

Not necessarily, because the Eva franchise and all the money that Gainax makes are mostly from Eva fans. If the fans start to lose interest, (we all will at a certain point) then Gainax will start to lose money, and will discontinue the line. It pretty much all depends on what we think of E...
