So the basis of what I say is 90% pure, simple objective observation, post-judice: I'm aware, that Evangelion is not a "action-show" or a "esoteric message", but how can you judge an interpretation on something without referring to the original thoughts behind it. When I say...

You mean the whole minute and maybe more that passes before Shinji pushes the lever? Yeah, I was talking about the motionless picture; in retrospect I phrased it very mistakable. _____ So, the question that consequentially follows after your answers is: What's the basis of your judgment? Your p...

(Just FYI, you were quoting Chuckman here, not me. It's good to specify the correct people to avoid confusion.) Sorry, fixed. There actually is a lot of stuff in Eva that was just made up as they went along and doesn't have any depth, and there's other stuff that was very obviou...

Rei IV: [url]http://www.angryflower.com/evange.html I don't know why, but this is hilarious :lol: It's just a show. You really should relax. Why is it "just" a show ? Where's the difference between classical literature, for example Goethe's Faust and a rather new productio...

Understanding, overinterpretation and subjective perceptions

I recently stumbled upon some recessions on Evangelion on a German anime website with a mostly childish fan base: "Ich fand den Anime übelst geil, nur das ende von The End of Evangelion raff ich imma noch nich, hab das ganze mit eng sub gesehen, wer hat den am ende des films gewonnen?" Rou...

It's the only mecha anime i ever watched and probably the only mecha anime I’ll ever watch (I just can't take mecha seriously) Although I read "Pluto".

Also Evangelion is the only military anime i ever enjoyed.

Y'all know there's no such thing as actual snuff films right? As in, murders deliberately videotaped for commercial distribution. Doesn't happen. There's not nearly enough of a market for it to justify the risk. You would be shocked if you'd know how easy it is to get provable r...

I just started Aku no Hana and as far as i am, it's awesome. Apart from the really good story, the animation is my main reason for liking the show, although they properly used the rotoscoping technique because of the lack of budget (as far as I know, the animation also gets a "in-universe-expla...

It's pretty odd, I watched EVA, expecting a straight-forward psychological, mindfuck, dramatic show. What I got (on the first run) was a pretty good, but not amazing Mecha-show with good characters (this changed dramatically after watching it the 2. time) . The weird part is, tha...
