Re: Continuing NGE?

I'm getting the impression that the current fandom generally disregards everything that deviates from canon further than Peggy Sue and/or isn't crack. Having dabbled in NGE fic writing for the last couple of years, I've gained a little insight on how to cater to current fandom demographics. Supposi...

Re: Continuing NGE?

Re: fic reviews Are things in the EVA fandom that bad already? Yes, the fandom is old, but I always thought it's easy to get reviews for EVA fics - which explains why The End of Hedgehog's Dilemma still earns faves/follows unto this day despite its unchecked grammar and irregular update. Utena fics ...

Re: FanFiction Requests/Recommendations/Discussion etc.

Hey, MisterHalt! I've since bookmarked your thread over at Sufficient Velocity. Have read up to the latest chapter. Am assured by your highly regular update schedule that this is a brilliant epic that should live to see completion. Please keep up the good work: I don't have an account over at SV, bu...

Re: FanFiction Requests/Recommendations/Discussion etc.

II've just finished uploading all of Hand.Cannot.Erase to FF.Net. My first attempt at a post 3.33 fic. I really enjoyed writing this, was fun to play around in that world even if it was only a brief 6 chapter stay. Damn, you never fail to finish any multi-chapter story -- its almost like a superpow...

Re: FanFiction Requests/Recommendations/Discussion etc.

Having just followed the Catalyst unto its (really good) ending, I was originally going to refrain from reading Eva works that are still in-progress. Then I chanced upon You Are (Not) at Fault, and there I go again. Oh well, at least this one has a good forward momentum, and doesn't look like it wou...

Re: Have you ever just stopped watching anime?

Haven't watched a single new anime since Yuri Kuma Arashi, which I watched only because of the Ikuni factor. I am, however, still reading new fanfics based off the older titles (2005-ish and older). Goes to show how little the new shows are doing for a veteran otaku like me.

Re: Revolutionary Girl Utena

The below are all IMHO.

On a scale of 1 to 10

Utena:
character 10
plot 9
style 8

Penguindrum:
character 7
plot 8 (given this rating because, convoluted thought the execution, it is partially based on the real life 1995 Tokyo Subway Attack€)
style 9

Yuri Kuma:
character 6
plot 7
style 10

Re: Revolutionary Girl Utena

Have combed through Utena, Penguindrum, and Yuri Kuma repeatedly (cause main fic is ongoing and needs references all the time). Am beginning to think that all three Ikuhara shows essentially got near-identical endings offering the exact same message -- with Utena's execution being the most subtle, a...

To the Mods: I know this is unrelated to fanfic, and a double post, but if at all possible, please allow this post to stay on for a while.

Am very happy to have discovered this following old gem: https://www.fanfiction.net/s/3952276/1/Shinji-Almighty The plot is one of the best I've yet seen in humor EVA fics, and the OOCs all make sense too. I would've left reviews if I still think they check their FFnet account (the last ...

The art style reminds me a little bit of Rumiko Takahashi's works ("pink-haired Lum" was the first thing that came to my mind).

It seems like most "deep" animes post 2010 have this world-view.

Hmm . . . as someone who knows a little bit about Christianity, I have to say that the Church in the medieval ages -- which AOT's world is loosely based on -- was not what it is today. There were real hypocrisy and real power tripping, because the Church had actual political power in Europe then...
