I really love the idea and execution of this one... Shinji being not only a part, but being shaped and being devoured by his surroundings.

I was trying to capture the essence of that shot in instrumentality where scenes are playing inside a transparent silhouette of Shinji, but of course the banner isn't animated so it need to show that variety across space rather than through time.

I'm kinda meh on how it turned out though, honestly.

I'd never have thought of the idea myself, and I like it a lot!

^^ Never thought an anime character showing only eyes, hair, clothes, and not much of an outline would look that creepy. ^_^

Is it me, or is the image roughly in the center (on my browser at least) supposed to be Kaji in a dress? Where the hell did that come from?

The video game, NGE2. I don't remember if that scene is in the PSP version, PS2, or both.

I have no idea what the context is, but it was amusing so I had to find a place for it.

Another 'filler' week, this time giving some props to the minor Q cast (far right) and their amazing flying skeleton battleship. Poor guys are understaffed as it is, so I thought they could use a nice recruitment poster.

Uwaah, pretty quick change of header this time! How fitting, that after Kaji's departure the Wunder emerges!

Actually, it was day late from the original schedule, as Kaji was also - Kaji was up for the usual length of time.

Seemed so quick. Well, nevermind, then. The fact that Kaji dwindled into oblivion by the time the Wunder emerged still stands, though :D

Ya Maya! :asuka_thumbsup:
I mean, predictability is the central attraction and the narrative hook that we've all come to expect from the Evangelion franchise. How come Anno can't realize this? Twice? - FreakyFilmFan4ever
