I am never listening to /tv/ ever again. I can't believe I put this off because you fags told me it's overrated. This is perhaps one of the most devastatingly beautiful , avant-garde and visceral piece media put on screen. It's kinography of the highest order.
>>217015307Well your frame of reference is probably minimal so yeah I'm sure you believe that
>>217015307Better than anything Kubrick ever made.
>>217015307Ok but red or blue, who wins?
>>217015531Pedo.
>>217015307why would you listen to these faggots? all the good faggots left this site a decade ago
>>217015307For a mecha anime it sure has fuck all mecha action
>>217015570This. /tv/ is full of tasteless poltrannies now.
>>217015593But when it does, it is beautiful.
>>217015593It's not a mecha anime, it's a teen angst anime with mecha. That's why manbabies love it so much, they can jerk off imagining that whiff of teenage pussy they never got themselves.
>>217015548They're canonically 28 years old, retard.
>>217016378I will cave your skull in you disinegenous faggot.
>>217015307/tv/ is full of contrarians that love to shit on the best, most critically acclaimed kinos of all time to seem cool
>>217015307If someone uses the word overrated or pretentious to describe something, always watch it. 80% of the time it’s kino.
>>2170155931: It's not a mecha anime2: There's still tons of action every episode3: The action is more impactful and intelligent than any generic mecha anime4: The action actually has consequences that last the rest of the seriesYou're very dim and should just stick to baby-level series like Gundam.
>>217015307What do you think overrated means?
>>217015307Fuck off to /a/Nobody cares about this childish cartoon shit
>>217015307I'm so glad you're here. I love Neon Genesis so much
>>217016559anime website
It feels like it's for teenagers. The same people who love NGE probably also love Donnie Darko or Fight Club or whatever. It feels like it's the same audience.
>>217016737It was always for teenaged otaku. The problem is that the fanbase aged and never moved on so now most Evafags are in their 30s or even 40s
I don’t know how anyone could watch this without having seen the tv show. That disqualifies it as a “movie”.
>>217016821That's incredibly stupid. Sequels are movies.
>>217016737It's for teens for the action, relationships, and superficial happenings, but it's for adults to actually understanding the overall plot, the esoteric ancient artifacts and religious theological plots, the crisis between adults/children/their inner selves/their own existence, etc. You're very dumb to just glance at something for two seconds and say "durrr dis for otaku baka gaijin dat lik a robot fight and teen angst" as if anyone cared about your ignorant opinion.
>>217015307/tv/'s taste in anime is trash, this is the greatest anime film ever produced
Just make sure you don't watch the Rebuilds, it will leave a sour taste in your mouth after watching that masterpiece
>>217015307It really is a beautiful film. It's only flaw is that you're required to watch the previous series in order to fully appreciate it.
>>217017037That's not a flaw at all. The story is too complex for a singular movie. You're complaining that you have to watch Fellowship to watch Two Towers.
>>217015307One of the best films I ever watched period
>>217016378rebuilds aren't canon
>>217016983Anime is fucking trash
>>217016378>rebuildsTake it to reddit
>>217017139Rebuilds are canon by the creator himself. Sorry pedo, you're attracted to appropriately aged adults.
>>217017094Maybe flaw was the wrong word. It's still an issue though because lots of people just jump right in without watching the series first and then complain about how they didn't understand anything.
>>217016533Tomino Gundam is more mature than Evaslop
>>217017160>lots of people just jump right in without watching the series first it's specifically called [[[[ END ]]]] of Evangelion. That's their own fault for being idiots.
>>217015593Stranger Things might be more up your alley
>>217016938>esoteric ancient artifacts and religious theological plotsThat's for teenagers. >the crisis between adults/children/their inner selves/their own existenceI'd rather watch a normal drama movie than a goofy mecha show for this. Something like The 400 Blows is about children, but it feels like a movie for adults. Evangelion doesn't feel like it was made for adults.
>>217015307It's worshiped by manchildren who are frozen in the same cycles of teenage thought and emotion that they should have left behind years ago. This isn't actually the movies fault as it warns against this very thing but it is an indictment of how poorly the idea was conveyed as it not only failed utterly in it's goal but in fact had the exact opposite effect on it's viewers.
>/pol/niggers have so thoroughly destroyed 4chan newfags now perceive the site as thinking Eva is overratedIt truly is over eternal september bros. Maybe I should listen to my wife and get back into fishing.
So what are some other mecha shows that are as good as Eva?
>>217017378Doesn't exist, Evangelion is the best one
>>217015307>devastatingly beautifulIndeed. One may even call it an emotionally devastating tour-de-force not for the faint of heart!
>>217017378Gurren Lagann and Code Gayass both mog NGE and it's not even close.
>>217017473Sure, and that's why they're never talked about
>>217015531Asuka
>>217017378dont listen to that other anon code gayass is is turbocancerlook at gundam iron blooded orphans
>>217017378don't liste to the last fag. War in the Pocket is the TRVE Gundam kino
>>217015531Shinji
>>217017509>gundam iron blooded orphansOne of the coolest openings I've ever seen.
>>217015531Asuka is the number one best girl of all time. Soulless dolls just can't compete.
>>217017566raise your flag!
>>217017582why does the un have sukhois?
Do I need to have watched the series to understand this movie? I tried watching NGE but dropped it because Shinji was too whiny and irritating.
>>217017168I don't think you know what maturity is.
>>217017634>Do I need to have watched the series to understand this movie? I tried watching NGE but dropped it because Shinji was too whiny and irritating.If you got filtered by the show then the movie definitely isn't for you
>>217017644It's obvious that one of us(You) doesn't.
>>217017306>perceive the site as thinking Eva is overratedFlattery if anything.
>>217017634You don't have to, but i dont know why you would. If you find Shinji's personality to be a deal breaker then you should immediately stop all plans of watching anything NGE related, because that never changes
>>217017661>NOOOO I CAN’T DO IIITTT I’M PARALYZED BY DOUBT AND SELF LOATHINGThis is something I truly can’t stand in anime. Full episodes of a character screeching about how they’re a loser. Shinji is one of the most annoying lead characters in anime history and it doesn’t matter if that’s the 'point' or not when it’s so grating to watch.
>>217017717thats not true theres like 2 episodes or so where hes kind of determind and ok to pilot an eva before he breaks down again and tries to run away
>>217017634Evangelion is all about the characters and their relationships with each other. If you don't like the characters then the final movie will do nothing for you.
>>217015307I missed it last year, and really want to see this in theaters. Big into Kojima and it’s ridiculous how much this inspired Mgs2 and Death Stranding in general.
>>217017732>Shinji is one of the most annoying lead characters in anime history and it doesn’t matter if that’s the 'point' or not when it’s so grating to watch.I don't know what to tell you other than the fact that you're a normalfag who will never get it
>>217015570But where did the good fags go?
>>217017798Thanks for the compliment. I'd rather chew glass then be an emotionally stunted manchild like yourself.
>>217017836>can't empathize with protagonist because they're not le muscular ultra confident action hero>calls others emotionally stunted
>>217017905Isn’t Shinji being such a whiny faggot basically the most common complaint about the series?
>>217015307Why release this in theaters again?? Zoomers will have no fucking clue how to interpret this shit
>>217015307>I am never listening to /tv/ ever again. I can't believe I put this off because you fags told me it's overrated. This is perhaps one of the most devastatingly beautiful , avant-garde and visceral piece media put on screen. It's kinography of the highest order.
>>217017977I'm pretty sure Zoomers will instantly identify with a whiny scrawny incel who is mocked and humilated by Stacey.
>>217017267Correct.>>217017378Eureka Seven has always been the better show. Similar musical emphasis to Cowboy Bebop, but with a more recent genre. There's an actual scifi concept around consciousness, not just an explosion of pseud imagery. The whiny bitch MC has actual character growth and mans up. The initially stoic love interest isn't just an empty fuckdoll and PTSD gives way to real personality. The wild mother figure in her 20s matures out of being a drunken slut.
>>217018024>drunken slutThere is nothing wrong with drunken sluts. I've fucked a lot of them and never regretted it. I wish there were more of them.
>>217015307I will never watch you transexual propaganda disguised as cartoons. Anime made my brother gay, many of us know people it's turned gay or trooned out, and you pretending like it's not a problem makes you evil
>>217018184/pol/ has fucked you up little nigga
>>217015606>everything I don’t like is..LE POLNAZI CHUUUUUUDS!You should seek help my man
>>217017473My old tranny coworker says Macross is good
>>217018020>t. media illiterate retardMayhaps you would prefer the newest capeshit slop my smooth brained friend
>>217018181Oh I didn't say it was wrong. I love slutty Talho. The point is that her character develops well, both in terms of being fleshed out and in evolving realistically.
>Shinji's pot nut clarity ended the worldThis will never not be funny.
>>217017634The movie is slop for midwits who didn't like the original ending of the show, so you'll love it. Lots of pointless action.
>>217018024E7 is probably the best attempt at coming of age fiction I've ever seen. Shame they had to ruin it with the sequel garbage.
>>217018420Yeah I don't see that as ruining it so much as a lesson to pay attention to writing staff. Dai Sato wasn't on that, I don't think.
>>217015307The guy was going thru depression when he made it. It's at least a goated TEEN ANGST
