Never been banned from anywhere. Not because I follow the rules, but my posts are generally boring enough that admins can't make it to the offensive parts.

The slow pace of production has also hurt the enjoyment factor of the comic. The sooner the comic ends, the sooner Gainax ends their merchandising efforts. Maybe Sadamoto could pull a sequal manga series out of his butt so they could sell more stuff. Or maybe they're just rerererelease the mang...

No, see, Anno knew the budget for the show was going to suck, so he worked money saving measures - such as the repetition of images and the long static shot - into his visual style. At least that's what I'm told. And no, I'm not the least bit skeptical about it, no way. If only he had t...

I'm not sure I buy the whole 'alternate evolutionary paths' thing. I mean, you can't evolve into another universe.

Well, it seemed the ATF was a close guarded NERV secret that they might not have known about till late in the project. Jet Alone could very well have worked if they found a way around the ATF.

Let's not forget that Nerv is very centered around the German language. Nerv, Seele, and Gehirn, are all German words. Two of the active MAGI computers are in Germany (only country but Japan to have more than one). And one of the primary pilots was raised German. It is doubtful that Gehi...
