vastly superior in terms of shonen-esque fanservice (until 3.33), shit in terms of actually being about something.

maybe 4.44 will redeem the series and reveal that there was an underlying logical thread running through the whole ordeal, but it seems pretty dubious, seeing as Anno's already scrapped his original concepts for 3.33 and 4.44 several times over.

>>269665746

oh come on, it's blatant as fuck. it's like the artist watched that scene in 2.22 and was like 'I'm going to use that exact same angle, color palette, and subject, but I should swap the face with 02's so it's at least slightly different.'

I guess it's alright if it's a deliberate homage or whatever.

Because the opening 20 minutes is some of the dumbest and most contrived storytelling in the entire franchise, including fan fiction. Not to mention it's becoming painfully obvious that things are being changed for no reason other than to create new merchandise. The cherry on top was that meta "curse of eva" bullshit they used as a cheap excuse to not actually take advantage of the timeskip in meaningful ways.

I saw it more as Shinji trying to figure out if what he was in was "real" or not. And apparently the "How disgusting" line could be translated to a lot of things, including alluding to morning sickness.

Both subvert expectations. 3.33's trailer flat-out lied to us.

And I love EoE, it's a work of fucking art, but let's not pretend like it didn't have flaws in the storytelling. Yui literally saying "d-don't worry, this ending's happy, really" wasn't exactly the most subtle way to assuage the audience.

>>269668320
I prefer the dub, some of the side characters are so-so but most of the main cast hits the mark. Tiffany Grant was perfect fit for Asuka, Spike Spencer does a great job at voicing Shinji, and Rei and Kaworu's VA's do a great job at making them sound almost alien like.

The reaction to 2.0 was mostly just "whoa it's not just a remake anymore oh shit I don't know how I feel about this"

Sub, and I say that as someone who's watched the dub more times than the sub. The dub is flawed in various ways. The voice cast isn't consistent between the TV series, director's cut, EoE, or rebuild outside Misato, Asuka, and Shjinji. And when it comes to the TV series they had a hard time knowing how to handle scenes since they didn't have the full script, they dubbed it episode by episode. The first few episodes are very rough and specific scenes an have errors in tone or translation.

Seriously, I don't understand why she's popular

He was fucking in pain man, he desperately wanted to save the world in order remove all the guilt he has for what he did at the end of 2.0, do you think he'd so easily give up a chance to stop the glares everyone shot him when he woke up? For someone like Shinji everyone glaring at him is enough for him to kill himself. Of course he'd ignore Kaworu, fight Asuka and take over Unit 13's controls, he needed to be validated/loved and not hated.

Didn't you listen to him as he was climbing Lilith's corpse, everyone will forgive him, I'll fix everything, Misato won't be mad at me anymore. This is Shinji we're talking about, everything he did is in according to how he'd act.

Didn't you see how fucking happy he was when he pulled them out? He was going to fix everything, no one will hate me!

Look at that fucking face

Hideaki Anno Warns of Trouble Ahead for Japanese Animation

>”The Japanese animation industry has hit a dead end — it will be tough to escape unless we can make animation without commercial considerations,” Anno said in explaining his support of the project. “It may even be too late.”

>The plan is to make an initial line-up of about 30 animation shorts, an average of five to six minutes in length. The shorts will be made with production support from Khara and distributed on Web and as smartphone aps with technical backing from Dwango.

>Asked about the fourth and last instalment in his new “Evangelion” series, Anno offered no new info about production. “I am definitely doing it, but I have to do this sort of thing as well. I’m thinking that I’ll return to ‘Evangelion’ after I do something different,” he said.

that too fits, especially in context of his conversation with Shinji. Basically telling him to man up and save the world.

The Evas are basicly clones of Adam, strapped in armor and tech to make them controllable, but on some level they are still sentient. As seen by how they "befirend" or help their pilot in certain situations.

How Shinji's mom was able to "possess" Eva 01 is basicly chalked up to "Its aliens, I aint gotta explain shit."

Lol fuck that gay ass series. Neat mech designs but the whole series is a fucking cock tease that goes no where. They keep you teased with the promise of mech fights but every time something almost happens the mechs get their asses handed to them because the pilots are all a bunch of pussy as terribly written kids

One isn't even real, one is some bitch on her period all day and the last is THE MOST ANNOYING pussy ass unlikable awful main character I've ever seen in anything. The story is "hurr durr 3deep5me" fedoracore pandering trash. The series couldn't even be properly finished because of how poor that studio got

The dub is done. Well was done. 3.33 was released in theaters in europe/merrica/and else where as well. The dvd release was delayed because of the theater release but was set to come out like last year until funimation got told to redo it. Anno has always had a tight grip on Eva's english dub's.
