Is this really better than Neon Genesis Evangelion and other mecha shows? Like how?
>>
>>23849693
It's shit even compared to original Gundam
>>
I'm not sure anyone actually holds that opinion

I think it's a decent example of it's time with a novel weird ending caused by it's cancellation, that's then pretty significantly elevated by Be Invoked
>>
>>23849693
it's great.
>Is this really better than Neon Genesis Evangelion
those two are very different type of shows and I love them both.

I learned that Cosmo's VA apparently played the dog in Johnny fucking Test of all things
>>

>Johnny fucking Test
Is that anything like Boku no Pico?
>>
>>23849693
yes, and if you don't think so you'd never understand the show.
>>
>>23849693
The pacing is slow and sometimes confusing but the story, themes and core message makes it better than Eva
>>
>>23850224
>The pacing is slow
How so?
>>
>>23850224
>>23850225
I thought the pacing was quite fast in that it glues you to your seat rather than it being a negative thing
>>
>>23850224
How is the pacing slow? It is a monster of the week show. Every episode you get a new guy to fight that is the premise that is the formula it is not slow.

Like lol wat
>>
>>23849693
It's the best one

>It is a monster of the week show. Every episode you get a new guy to fight
Did you even watch the show? I don't necessarily have an issue with how it's paced, but there are extended stretches where every episode is just "OH FUCK THE BUFF CLAN" and it'll just end with them escaping and then the exact same thing happens next episode.
>>
>>23849693
TV series is shit
The movie is good
>>
>>23849693
Did you just read one post in your Eva thread and make a new thread?
I fucking hate evafags
>>
And once again /m/ takes the bait and starts chomping.
>>
>>23850382
Yes I did watch the show and anybody who says it is not monster of the week is dim. Every week there is a new plan to topple the solo ship. And either involves big new robot or big new plan.

No.

It's the other way around, Be Invoked isn't all that. Too much of its runtime is wasted on bad space fights where Ideon itself does nothing interesting. It peaks very early with Sheryl losing her mind and doesn't really top that even with everything else going down. But hey, classic headshot gif, woo. Anno did this whole thing better, but he had the benefit of learning from Tomino how to do it.
>>
>>23850386
This.
>>
I mean it's not good or anything, but it's not as bad as Evangelion at least
>>
neither the movies nor the series are that great on their own
the series probably could stand to be a dozen eps less or so, but a lot of what really makes it good is the slow build of everybody interacting week after week as they realize how fucked they are
the movies end up the cliffs notes of cthulhu "it's gonna rise, it rises, everybody dies the end yawn"
but the tv series just sorta runs out of show instead of ending so there's that
>>
>>23850169
A little in that you're not seeing the gates of heaven if you watch either one.
>>

How to spot a retard
