Eva asks, "Who am I?" Gurren asks, "Who the hell do you think I am!?" Sums up the different approaches pretty nicely! :tongue: I wouldn't call Gurren Lagann an "anti-Eva," but it does scoff at some of the tropes Eva used, much like FLCL did. That said, TTGL is most ...

Sakura and Midori from a pachinko promo:


A really nice render of Mark.06 I found on reddit:

^Even if Shinji did take the blame, most people have zero idea who he is. Even Asuka didn't realize who he was when they met the first time. What would the official cover story even be in a situation like this? Shinji's name probably wouldn't be used, but I could see Seele dumping the bl...

I watched the Platinum dub of Episode 1 for the first time, and then I did a marathon of Puchi Eva!

Branching off from the Anima general thread here. As was pointed out in that thread, Anima and the Rebuild/NTE films share a number of ideas, with concepts introduced in one later popping up in the other. I thought it might be useful to catalog some of these elements in their own thread so they'...

Why should Anno use anything from ANIMA? From what i know he is not involved with it at all. Also, Anno never used anything from manga, games or anything similar in the anime except that sword (which is from ANIMA) that 08+02 is holding in the preview. Still this doesn't indicate that h...

Yamashita's ladies are all very busty, even Asuka and Rei!

Here's Misato from S2 Chapter 28 of Anima. I really dig the new Nerv jackets:

What a strange robot!

Not really a surprise to anyone, but Cassette Girl has been announced as this week's movie and the Season 3 finale.

Well, that's the thing. It hasn't been officially cancelled as far as I know. They've just been completely silent about it.

The compilation book has been MIA since it was announced and things aren't looking good on that front. I have found what appears to be a translation of the final chapter of Anima floating around Tumblr under the "Anima" tag. It's...weird. Edit: here's an excerpt from it, courte...

I remember one scene, I can't remember the episode, where Shinji and Gendo bump into one another while Shinji's riding the elevator or something. Gendo looks absolutely gobsmacked at the time -- he has no idea how to react, and is utterly paralyzed until the elevator doors closed. The fear ...

Like the Rebuild of Nadia! :devil: Kidding, kidding. I think Eva's become one of those juggernaut franchises like Star Wars and Godzilla where the main body of work can go dormant for a decade, but the spin-offs and merchandising keep the brand afloat and in the public eye. It wouldn't be su...

It's still early morning in Japan yet. Wait and see if anything pops up after the street view broadcast, then flip your table!

It depends who has the distribution rights for the film, if anyone. Seeing how successful the US Godzilla movie was, I expect it'll be out in less than a year.

Not too surprising. As cool as it is, the Wunder is an awful mess of a thing to draw!

^ Just some fan art I found on one of the -boorus. It does a pretty good job imitating an Eva Store wallpaper, though.

Here's another upgraded 01:

Unit 01

Hopefully it's just an example. Can't imagine why they'd take issue with "Unit 01" now when it's been that for almost 20 years. I won't be surprised the Vessel of the Adams was one of those things, though.

They talked to some Funimation staff on their podcast and asked about it, that's why it came up. I listened to the ANNcast in the post, and the Funi reps said that they're still locking in some details, but it's going to have an early 2016 release and they're going to try to have mor...
