its ok user. everybody likes different stuff :P
That’s fine as long as your criticism is valid and isn’t stupid shit like shinji’s a pussy or something like that. there are tons of reasons not to like Eva and it isn’t everyone’s cup of tea
I just couldnt really get into the "'everyone sucks but power through it" thing the show was going for. And a lot of the avonguard (sorry if i spelt that wrong im esl) was pretty boring imo. Had some cool visuals at least, especially in the movie.
Yeah I hear that a lot and I get where they’re coming from
That's fine bro, I love Eva but I'd love to develop some real qualms against it some day.
As long as you don't say it's bad because shinji is a faagXDD and muh forced simbolismsXDDD it's okay
That's fine user, I don't like it much either, even though I unironically understand it 100%.
Well then Op since you've watched Eva, you should follow it's message. That message being that escapism(anime) is bad and should not be consumed.
It's 8/10
People who think it's the greatest shit ever created haven't watched too many anime and the people who think it's overrated shit are just pissed that the show is praised all the time
EoE was fucking awesome tho
>That message being that escapism(anime) is bad and should not be consumed.
>....but buy our gendo shaving cream! and our asuka dish soap! and our rei tooth brush! and our kaworu pillow case! and our shinji coffee mug (haha! it's like the meme!)!
Anno invalidated his own work with his own hands by commercialising it.
wrong pic
>That message being that escapism(anime) is bad and should not be consumed.
Did he ever say this tho?
Asuka is pile of feces
Why so much official art depics Asuka smiling, when that doesn't reflect her personality at all?
You say that, but your Rei clones are getting loose again.
Anno commercializing always reminded me of that one scene in Wayne’s world
Just give up. Anno is more interesting than his works.
this image is so out of character it's depressing
Why aren't they friends :(
I didn't especially like eva either, right up until EoE and the finale episodes.
Even now, I think I can appreciate what Eva was going for, but it's kind of not for me.
Misato best girl though.
Ah yes, the pedophile whore
that's the one.
don't forget 'incestuous', since she took the role of shinji's mommy too.
Everyone in this show is subhuman garbage and thats the point, being horny for them just proves your too autistic to know whats happening
You know I wouldn’t be surprised if misato ever thought about having a threesome with kaji and shinji
I'm not horny for misato, I just like her the most of the main girls.
excepting unit-01 and kaworu of course
Why does every thread just turn into waifu faggotry?
Horny monkey brain
upboated my good sir
tips fedora
I just finished it myself and I mostly got it but it just wasn't for me, I think it's main target audience is the loser no-life anime watcher and the whole point is to tell them to stop escaping into shit and make real human connection despite the harm it could bring you. Any half-adjusted human understands this by the time they're 21, usually earlier.
>avonguard
Idek what you're trying to spell
Main problem with Evangelion is its godawful pacing, they needed to spread out the monster of the week episodes more evenly across the series so it doesn't speed up and slow down so much, most people I know who've dropped it did so somewhere between eps 15-18 before getting to the good shit just because of how long it takes to get to Toji getting his shit fucked after it's telegraphed so early
Evafags talk big about how deep and complex their overrated garbage is, but all they care about is fighting over who is best girl, without realising that they're exactly the kind of otaku that Anno despise the most.
>being horny for them means you're missing the point
>the artists only dressed them up in skin-tight fanservice suits and gave them attractive designs IRONICALLY
The show is good but its fans are retarded because they refuse to dig into anything else.
They keep repeating Eva is the peak of the medium because they downright downplay everything that isn't Eva and apply an extremely reductionist view on it, while at the same time complaining about contrarian giving Eva the same treatment (and rightfully so, these people are retarded as well).
It's a shame really, they're preventing themselves from enjoying more things, even thought there are things out there that would be to their liking.
I mean, Shinji is a faggot, but he stays a faggot during the entirety of the series, so it's not a proof of bad writing, faggots exist irl as well
avant-garde is the term you're looking for, it's a french term
but I'd dispute eva is even trying to be avant-garde desu
I like Eva fanfics, specifically Shinji/Asuka, more than the actual series.
Oh right
Yeah nah user NGE is not avant-garde, if anything it's more a consolidation of disparate trends and stylistic elements that already existed up to that point. I don't think the last two episodes are the shocking mindbreak people make them out to be but some of the animation during them is pretty awesome.
