I am actually kinda annoyed about it, it is going to become one of those things that seven year olds see and act like they are cool because of it.
And that will ruin Eva.
That makes absolutely no sense.

XD The rest of the episode made me giggle, and yet got me all depressed at the same time. What kind of attention is this going to attract for the series? And how much are they really going to cut out?
They showed EoE on an HBO channel. My friend was watching it, and they CUT OUT GNR. D: That's like. Half the movie right there. And the scientists being tangified, and most of the Instrumentality sequence.

Anywho, I am nervous to watch it. Watching it for 5 minutes on AS just made me want to put it back on my computer and watch it.

If EVA get's popular, which it should, on the pure basis of it BEING anime on Adult Swim, then I can finally get them Asuka blow up dolls, and maybe them groundwork books, and a re-release of Der Mond.Carl Horn wrote:I also hear that EVA did for anime what Nirvana did for rock...
Have you ever made a post without mentioning Nirvana or Kurt?
But that reminds me of how much I wanna see Last Days.....

Those two shows, on average, drain my IQ 30 points. Each. Not the best thing to schedule two painfully unfunny reasons why American animation is mostly dead to me (aside from Family Guy and Harvey Birdman: Attorney At Law) before an anime that requires a lot of thinking. I hope AS fixes this before the alleged psychobabble starts... or is it too late already?

I stayed up to watch Squidbillies one night and I dont know how anything that stupid can get produced.
Personally, I like some American cartoons. Ren & Stimpy (old onces, not the new disgusting ones) and some nickelodeon toons from ages back (you know, Rocko's Modern Life, Angry Beavers)
Yeah. I liked the shittiest shows out of the bunch.

Hey, does the Adult Swim version also have only one commercial break in the middle, or do they have two breaks? If so, where do they put the eyecatch?

Toilet Duck wrote:i'm assuming they're just not going to show the first eyecatch at all. they did have the second one for "the beast" (but not for "angel attack"), so i'm not sure how the rest will be.
while i'm at it, hurrah for ridiculously and unnecessarily long episode titles ("those women longed for the touch of others' lips, and thus invited their kisses.").
