Re: Shinji understand the Near Third Impact and the Third Impact were different events in Q

Those two examples prove my point: in Ha EVA-01 goes from fully awakened Radiant Giant to dormant and back to normal with only the Cassius impaling it, while in Q EVA-13 was still a Radiant Giant even after taking two Longinus spears and Kaworu's death (meaning that there was only one pilot left, l...

Re: Waiting for Evangelion:3.0+1.0

It's not a dickish move by Khara even if it really really REALLY feels that way. Only the biggest of huge Hollywood blockbusters get same day international releases and even then certain countries like GP said, still wait a while after everyone else. It's just a draconian system that even the West h...

Re: EVANGELION:3.333 discussion thread

Ah, the spears glow. I do not recall them glowing in the OG cut They do, it's one of those things I wasn't really paying attention to when it was happening. I was more concerned about the spears just looking a bit more...cartoony than I would have liked; but this is just a nitpick. https://i.imgur....

Re: Evangelion 3.333 Bluray coming out on 8/25

I'd imagine that by the time we actually get our hands on this release, we'll at least know the release date for Shin's home video.

EDIT: In case you're trigger happy, 3.333 is already up for preorder on CDJapan.

He’s not being mean right? I can understand being blunt but I hope he’s not getting lectured cause that would just be making it worse.

Re: Amazon Prime Video release

What helped kill the time for Fate though was we got a International theatrical release about three months after the Japanese theatrical. We should have heard something by now is Eva was getting overseas run and we’re comparing to Fate.

Re: Official Waiting For Camrip Thread

The kicker is that there actually is a decent quality camrip out there; the people who have it are just keeping it incredibly close to them. I mean, it’s not like they could just buy a $50 computer, upload it online through the WiFi of a Starbucks, and then throw the computer in the nearest lake.......

Re: Debate the quality of Rebuild here. [2]

3.0 is not a movie with enough meat in it to sustain 9 years of analysis, theory, and discussion. What was supposed to happen was, they'd release 3.0, people would talk about how mysterious it was and wonder about where the plot would go next, and then 2-3 years later they'd walk into theaters and ...

Weren't the interviews in the physical bigger copies of the CRC? The paperback didn't have them because they were reprints IIRC.

Re: Godzilla & Kaiju General!

But in any event GvK was not an improvement in that regard by any means. Replacing a flawed human story with no human story is no remedy, particularly when the monster fights are lacking as well. I have to disagree, I thought the fights were pretty great and a huge improvement over KoTM whereas I a...

Re: Shin Eva - Official Social Media: 2.22 You Can (Not) Release

It's not unprecedented as 3.0 also had a similar spoiler-filled trailer containing footages of the film's final act out a few weeks after the November 17 premiere, but Khara and Evangelion's official social media presences weren't as dominant as today so most people didn't know that. They also alre...

Re: Official Waiting For Camrip Thread

Are online cafes still a thing in Covid Japan? Are college campuses still allowing in-person learning? Theoretically, if the guy who has the camrip uploaded it from a laptop using the WiFi from either of those two locations and then just dumped the laptop in a river; could he still be caught?

Re: The flaws and/or artistic validity of Shin and NTE as a whole

If you thought it was important to make a new character that fills most of Asuka's function in the story then why have any version Asuka in it at all? Especially when this new version of Asuka is going to get more screen time then your replacement of her. You have less time in 4 films than the seri...

Ok, it's fine, there is nothing wrong about it. But then develop that relationship. And don't destroy the almost coprotagonist fo NGE in the process. What value does Soryu’s role in NGE have to do with Shikinami’s role in NTE? Anno isn’t retroactively erasing Soryu’s significance in NGE just becaus...

Re: The flaws and/or artistic validity of Shin and NTE as a whole

What I mean is Rei is cast-off as a side character, despite being the second (or third, depending on your view) most important character to the story. Anno casts Shikinami off as a side character as well. Sure, she "possibly" has a content life in a world free of Eva, but she certainly de...

Re: The flaws and/or artistic validity of Shin and NTE as a whole

People hate on how Rei is handled in Re-Take, but Asuka is given the same treatment in the Rebuilds. IIRC, Rei kills herself in Re-Take and a good portion of the story revolves around Shinji marrying Asuka. Hardly the same as Shin where Asuka is alive and possibly content with her living situation ...
