A friend just found this article collating info from usenet and mailing lists on a now forgotten ADV controversy during Eva localization back in the 90s. Yes, there was another one . https://www.beyondelectricsheep.com/blog-1/2023/2/27/evagate-the-short-lived-controversy-behind-advs-licensing-of-neo...

I don't know if the right word for it is "forgive". She resents him, but the strangest part is she isn't even mad at Shinji's masturbation per se. Something we've talked about for a while is how Misato was unable to express herself and reach out to others if not for sexuality, and I think ...

Thanks for translating it.

I personally feel much happier as an adult than as a teenager. Childhood was fine for me but I always felt it was limiting. Even so I don't really think of myself as an adult before I was 23 or so. You say this about millennials and yet as someone in-between generations Zoomers seem far more absolut...

Somebody will translate this?
I can provide the full he scans

Hey there. Yeah, one of my guys bought it but he hasn't done anything yet. If you can provide those scans to me I can probably get something started sooner.

This would also imply Asuka wasn't in a coma for very long, a handful of months at best. It's no wonder she calls Mari a rookie. It'd also mean Wille was founded not too long after N3I at all.

Wikis very rarely support audio. I can only think of Wikipedia and even then it's rare, and not exactly integrated. If you really want to do it, you'd have to upload it somewhere else and link to it from the wiki page. Might be better to just use an image to demonstrate your point.

I hadn't seen these updates either and I'm glad you're still working on it. Thanks deeRez, and good luck!

This is something I had wondered myself. From a Western perspective, Shinji seems decidedly unremarkable, a everyman, average kid. He has average intelligence, average (or short) height, is shy, passive, etc. While that's still generally intended, we only see him as a loner, or even a reject/loser t...

Not that I know, though I do know some suits were modeled on Soviet cosmonauts. Sadamoto had an interview on it, and one on seifuku in general. I'll edit it in later. EDIT: Right, so a while ago I found that interview and put it on the wiki, gwern's only had incomplete snippets from one interview (t...

This means that there'll be an Italian-language version of the 1.0 and 2.0 CRC, but no English-language version? That's interesting, I would assume the English-language market for anything Evangelion is much larger than the Italian market and that publishers would respond accordingly—but I guess no...

A funny tidbit I found in an artist account, from the Storyboard Collections . https://twitter.com/modanahuro/status/1386296586859286528 https://twitter.com/modanahuro/status/1386297402471055366 https://twitter.com/modanahuro/status/1386299246404534273 https://twitter.com/modanahuro/status/138699228...

I'll put this here as it is the most recent 2.0 CRC thread. Distopia Evangelion reports that Italian publisher Panini is release the 1.0 and 2.0 CRC, complete, translated in Italian. This is of course far more easily accessible than the Japanese originals and AFAIK there is no other Western release....

Hmmmm...

Happy birthday, pwhodges!

I am gonna get this is one week Who shall I send the scan to for the translating process? I handled most of the in-between for the Newtype edition on Shin and the booklet and most other interviews recently so I guess I can do it. I can't make any promises about the actual translation though, it see...

Movie budget was 3.265 billion yen.

https://twitter.com/Sora_Sakurai/status/1681243225959563265?t=LnhuTBktLMuGr7nHme4oWg&s=19 It seems the book is a lot more broad than we thought. Hm. I'm still not sure if this is truly a Shin CRC (no idea about 3.0 either). Maybe they'll even make more books... https://twitter.com/paddy_joy/sta...

It seems translations might take a bit longer than expected, some of my contacts have disappeared, one has Covid, heh. Well, it's coming, we'll have at least a scan soon enough. https://twitter.com/htGOIW/status/1681134638176301058 I could be wrong about this one but it seems Anno is still pessimist...

Not untranslated, but here's Yoko Takahasi's interview from Evangelion FINALLY. Nothing new I'm afraid.
