It's weird that some people still maintain that Evangelion was some scathing critique of fanservice, otaku culture and shipping when the rebuilds have gratuitous sexualization (whenever the show had some sexual element it tied back to the themes it wanted to explore, this is not a thing in rebuild) and fanservice in quantities MUCH higher than the original
>demake slop
>>283261862Really odd that Google won't allow me to reverse image search this but I can image search a literal porn scene.
>>283262388it's from an artbook
>>283261862>cute girl presenting her foot with a look of disgustDiamonds.
>>283261862Evangelion was successful because the audience wanted to fuck Asuka and Rei.
>>283262446I can image search this. The AI even knows it's Asuka and it's an animation cel but not the other one. It's kinda fucked up how terrible google search has become.
>>283262694maybe it being too zoomed in to show off the goods makes it think it's a porn drawing
Not enough Shinji fanservice
>>283263172Shinji is one lucky motherfucker to have felt those cute feet pressing up against his face
>>283262603The actual show itself was good though
>>283261862appeal to tradition
>>283261862>that part in the final rebuild movie where shinji stops being a character and just becomes a self-insert for Anno fighting his fatherthe entire thing was cheap trash, they promised the world with the 2nd film and then went "HOW DARE THEY EXPECT US TO DO COOL SHIT WHEN WE PROMISED WE'D DO COOL SHIT"All the real talent left when Trigger formed.
>>283261862why does she have a dog sheathe
>>283264715puffy vulva
>>283261862Is there any anime that actually managed to critique fanservice without coming off as quickly forgotten westaboo slop?
>>283263172
>>283264997Is it really something that needs much critiquing?
>>283263945Of all versions of Asuka, is always yellow dress Asuka that makes me diamond instantly.
>>283266229Me too.
>>283262446Wasn't there also a sketch of her bare boobs?
>>283267444Indeed there is, multiple ones
>>283265379Please continue.Can you make the similar one with crying Rei?
>>283263945Nah, it's kinda just an aimless mess of concepts and suggestions without a solid idea what it's supposed to be A moody teenager's random ramblings about life hidden behind enough subtlety to let you interpret it however you want
I generally don't mind cosplayers and like a lot of them but Asuka cosplays rub me the wrong way because she's just too perfect. I don't have this reaction to any other character cosplay from any series
>>283261862>PLEASE CARE ABOUT EVANGELION
That's because Westerners have this tendency to interpret this into Japanese works when that's not the intention of the creators.Same way people think Perfect Blue is a "critique" of the idol/entertainment industry. Satoshi Kon went on record saying that isn't the point of the movie at all and that it's just Westerners misunderstanding.
>>283267580>244, 187, 183>232, 159, 155
>>283262446>>283267580Can anyone use AI to animate these?
>>283269075uh...dude those are animated in the movie itseld
>>283261862I suppose the point Anno is making is that a little bit of escapism, fanservice and stuff is fun and good, but at some point, you gotta turn it off, get off the coach, and go back to the real life. Like the good ol' isekais for children that end with the heroes leaving the fantasy world behind.
>>283269114But they're censored
>>283267767eva characters are more ensouled so the phony soullessness of cosplay whores is more glaring and offensive. you can picture asuka as a real person in your heart so it's immediately apparent when they don't match up with it.
>>283269056Cute pink
>>283269217are they?
>>283263325Rebuild babies will defend this.
>>283269364They are in the movie
>>283261862>Evangelion: demastered editionAll the people who parrot muh critique memes are virtue signaling midwits. The debuilds were a cynical cashgrab by Anno to squeeze more money out of eva.They were an absolute shitshow even on their own terms.
>>283269479>defend thisIt's just like in my japanese animes!
>>283269505Just look at the artbook and animate them in your head :^)
>>283270245>animate them in your headYears of watching anime left barely able to picture an apple
>>283261862What's even weirder is I thought that was Inuyasha for a sec.
>>283269075>AIFuck off
>>283269540I swear to god if I hear the words evangelion and deconstruction in the same sentence one more time I'm going to kill someone
hey farvawhat's that word that you see people use when talking about evangelion and its supposed meta nature
>>283267580>>283269364Why didn't they just keep it? They had no problem showing Rei's nipples.
>>283269346She is larger than life
This thread was completely unnecessary
>>283273259Every thread is unnecessary
>>283269346Very aptly put.
>>283264151>TRIGGER>Talentlmao, the real talent just became freelancers or retired from the industry at that point.
>>283264151I think it's pretty neat. It's not uncommon for writers to self-insert their own issues into a story. I do love how Shinji confronted Gendo and solves Gendo's own detachment issue and him unable to accept Yui's passing. Something that EoE/EVA never bothered to address.
>>283269540I'm sure Anno put some sort of critical thought into it and tried to put out a message like he did in the originals, but it's definitely apparent a huge factor in the rebuilds was that he got ownership over merch sales of certain characters and not others.
>>283276306Wasn't that the point of Shikinami? That Gainax still owned Soryu so they needed a legally distinct version?
Guys I have made several evangelion skins for manhunt, rate my stuff :Dhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q3ZKPN_X0Y8https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_rvvAXCVFnw&t=19shttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w0a3x62mbOM
>>283269346>>283275281Asuka does have this "girl next door" cuteness
>>283276437That's pretty funny
>>283261862This is one of many reasons I don’t like the rebuilds! It straight up would’ve been better if they were all like 1.11 and it was just an abridged version with modern animation
>>283276441And Shinji ended up envisioning her as precisely that in the toastverse
>>283261862And these people are usually some of the worst, yes. Muh high art faggots. Eva is alright for what it is but it's not what they hail it as.
>>283276412I've heard Anno got the rights to new characters while Gainax got the rights to old ones. Legally distinct Asuka would make sense, but not sure which way the money flows on that one
>>283276844Doesn't matter now, Khara successfully sued Gainax for the rights to the entire Evangelion IP, which is why they were able to do that McDonalds commercial with the original designs, such as Asuka having noticeably redder hair than Shikinami's strawberry blonde mane
>>283276647:D
