>>221314798Yeah I mean it would just be better to die at that point, I don't know what Seele's problem was.
>>221314865How would Instrumentality feel like? Like everyone's memories and thoughts just streaming into your own memories and thoughts?
It all returns to nothing.
>>221314865Wouldn't it be nice if everyone just died?
>>221314907Possibly, I don't know, could be anything. Perhaps you couldn't feel any sense of individuality at all and it just becomes like one kind of mega consciousness but I don't even remotely see the point of that.It's like I know it's basically like they thought they were trying to eliminate suffering on paper but instrumentality doesn't sound like a good idea to me.
>>221315018It's not like I want that or anything but if it was either that, or instrumentality, yeah I'd probably say it would be better if everyone just died.
>>221315047What they show in EoE of instrumentality seems like a shit deal.I think, basically, what EoE shows is that it's like you're in a lucid dream, made up of coherent scenes that don't have coherent connections, and that other people's thoughts can come and go into your dream and you into theirs. But it's unclear if the scenes are that voluntary like a lucid dream, and it's unclear if Asuka and Misato etc were forcefully "summoned" into Shinji's dream or if they could reject the call. I recall Shinji was summoned into Asuka's and Misato's dream streams of consciousness, and he seemed to have little control of what he did in Instrumentality, so it might all be involuntary: whenever someone has a stray thought or emotional whim then dream just automatically flows towards that without their say so.
>>221314798Just fucking shoot me instead of making me share a body with every Indian alive
>>221314907you've become a very small blur of thoughts and memories within a swarming hive of thoughts and memories.ultimately, we're all merging back into an original individual mother entity that seeded humanity here in the first place, rather than into a screaming swarm of viictims being mashed together. each person absorbed is collectively "remembering" everything experienced and known by everyone else absorbed, as a single merged mind, rather than some chaotic merging of minds/souls experienced by everyone as seperate individual minds/soulssounds a hell of a lot cooler than 'eternal servitude in a boring conflict-free utopian heaven' people get so hype for. that shit is truly truly terrifying, and the people who forsake this life to achieve that goal are mentally unwell nihilists.

>>221316057Anno was... having a bit of a rough patch at the time.
>>221316157Are any of these remakes worth watching. I thought the original series was okay
>>221316216no
>>221314798Anno is a fucking hack, like Kojima or Otomo.Theymade a profound damage in anime nad videah, juat like moemoecute shit.
Shinji didn't deserve a happy ending in the rebuilds
The ending to the tv show was a lot more interesting, thoughtful, and maturr than EOE.
>>221316216yes if you want to see reifags and asukafags BTFO

>>221316173dat nigga brown as fuck
for me it's the fat fuck
>>221314865>>221314907Instrumentality would be awesome. You'd get to be inside every hot chick on the planet simultaneously in the most intimate way possible and they can't reject you nor mock you. You know their deepest fears, insecurities and desires and they finally understand how it feels to be you. Break down those AT fields.
>>221316173Anno thought that facial hair made him look like Gendo.
>>221316964>Instrumentality would be awesome.But not for you.

>>221316970I had the Gendo beard through most of college because when I saw Eva in senior year of high school I had it and mu friends said I looked like Grendo.
Actually, I have the Gendo beard again now. Though maybe I do need to shape it again. A few weeks ago I did trim it down again to be less bushy. I had trimmed it down from a full beard and mustache last year.
The ending is actually not a happy ending or even bittersweet, because Anno is actually a mentally ill simp who thinks that’s what life is
>>221316057Wow you're fucking a retarded incel
https://www.lightspeedmagazine.com/fiction/the-twenty-one-second-god/New short story by the author of Blindsight. He once gave a Ted-style talk about this (he's a biologist), he cites temporary split brain experiences where the patient is given drugs that reduce the cross-channel talk at the corpus callosum. Watts believes that you can't network multiple consciousnesses, rather they always merge into an individual. The story is about a neuralink future where the buffers fail and the bandwidth gets too high among millions of connected users for exactly 21 seconds, creating a temporary omnipotent being.
>>221314907I think it feels like that early on as you're still "melting" but at a certain point "you" won't be able to remember who "you" were because you're one big entity that was everyone. I don't think people had like, fully combined mentally at the stage of instrumentality we saw. Shinji is actually interacting with the other characters as he melts into them. That is Asuka giving him shit most of the time.
>>221315018Evengelion uses instrumentality to signify multiple things. On the one hand its a thought experiment of being able to live without the fundamental defining human reality of being seperate people, the source of Shinji's fear. On the other hand its also used to signify regular death, and the choice of whether to embrace instrumentality is the choice of whether you want to live. A lot of philosophical conceptions of death mirror instrumentality, not so much an end of consciousness as an end of ego as you return to the wider universe. Maybe everything is conscious and individuality is an illusion, so as you die you just dissolve into a wider pervasive field of being.

The original Evangelion tv series is the best thing mankind has ever produced. The act of watching Neon Genesis Evangelion is a deeply visceral experience. Much like the 14-year-olds at the center of the story, you end up feeling so many different emotions as the narrative whiplashes in tone and intent. One moment you’ll feel paralyzed, then embarrassed, then angry, then lonely, and all to the point that you’re feeling like you’re being turned inside out by the strength of these very emotions (or sometimes the lack thereof). It places you deeply into the brainspace of its characters, and that’s rarely a comfortable place to be. No other form of art has yet to touch so many human emotions and resonate so deeply with our emotional and spiritual need for belonging.

>>221316216They're kinda of a neat alternative reality version of the original series and EoE but they are definitely worse. First movie is basically a rehash of the early episodes but then they go off in a completely different direction from there. They absolutely do not replace the original but are an interesting bonus to watch once if you want an different take on the material
>>221319149Sweet, cheers. I liked his books.
>>221316216They made oldniggers shit and piss themselves in impotent weeb fury so yes.

>>221326273How would it be racist when it combines it billions of blacks and asians? You'd be as mixed as it can get.
>>221325658I stared re-watching it recently as an adult. I now notice all the trick shots and composition that, I'm fairly certain, I had no appreciation of growing up. This is what gave it that 'larger-than-life' otherworldly feeling. I just didn't know it at the time. I was just enjoying a high-quality mecha show about giant robots, with some high-drama, that I didn't fully appreciate, strewn in-between.
>>221326161They’re the only good part of the movie, get fucked

For me?It's Ritsuko
>>221326462Yes. Mecha shows were the standard before Eva. It was a jumping off point. They had to jump off from somewhere in order to create their own genre.
>>221326481ritsuko is reserved for maya
>>221316057Wow it’s almost like the message was to work on yourself and learn that you can’t force others to like you or be like youIt’s almost like the final test is a decision between taking the easy way out and letting yourself melt into greater society, or keeping your individuality while embracing the challenge that is meeting people who are different from you (aka life)Retard

>>221315841nah I really don't see how losing all sense of self and being merged mentally with everyone else is better than cliche heaven
>>221315689thats a good point theres way too many bug people third worlders throughout history for the greater consciousness to be anything worthwhile, it'd b bogged down by all the subhuman life

>>221316216don't listen to this idiots, not as good as the original series? sure, but they are good, and those movies are not a remake but a continuationSo, if you wanna know the ending you should watch all 4 after the original series and movie
>>221314907Hard to say the show makes it appear to be a long process of complementation that isn't necessarily complete in any way we are shown. Shinji experiences something similar to instrumentality when he vanishes into the LCL of Eva unit 01, he meets his mother and while he considers staying he ultimately retains individuality. In general the process is likened to returning to the womb, which we see literally in EoE with Lilith returning all of humanity to the black moon. It seems the end goal is likely just complete reunification with Lilith's godhood.What I want to know is if instrumentality also collects the souls of dead humanity. Misato dies before instrumentality starts but we see that just then she is seemingly saved by Rei and a part of the process. So does that mean all deceased humans are also a part of it, maybe even unborn souls? The show does mention "Chambers of Guf" which implies there may be a limited number of human souls. Its a weird idea because it potentially implies the genuine supernatural existing in the setting, life after death, reincarnation etc.
>>221320516I was told by a random this is not actually sweat it's 95% a fluid (maybe just water) they put inside the suit for the same purpose as one would use baby powder but it works better or something
>>221314907my immediate thought on seeing people getting tang'd was blister burns popping those sting like a motherfucker as is, so presumably you're entire person popping all at once would be excruciatingly painful for however many split seconds you have left
>>221330731>So does that mean all deceased humans are also a part of it, maybe even unborn souls>The show does mention "Chambers of Guf" which implies there may be a limited number of human soulsI think it's likely that both of these are true. There is a finite number of human souls that can be fitted into bodies as is believed in some existing esotericisms.>we see that just then she is seemingly saved by Rei and a part of the processI believe the above and also think that specifically showing Misato "saved" by Rei at the last second is a "gimme" and easter egg for the fans to show she's not dead. So people can go back and see "how is Misato in the tang if she died BEFORE God-Rei?" and can also see that Rei appearing to you is pretty contingent. The movie specifically shows that Gendo's body IS intact as a contrast to everyone else. It's basically the movie winking to the audience, who may not realize it right now, and who are surely VERY upset about all the deaths, that with the exception of Gendo none of them are even dead and the ending is pretty insane but nowhere as "sad" as people assume.Also it establishes Rei as a paracausal? entity not bound by space or time. It's how and why she appears to Shinji in the first 30 seconds of ep 1 and it's how she appears to him floating after "God-Rei" is "dead". By this I mean to say that basically, in a nutshell, when Rei merged with Lilith in EOE, she became a "God" that spans across time, not just present and future but even able to project herself into the past because as a God, time is no longer linear to you. Lilith Rei exists in all pasts, presents and futures which is why she can appear to and "save" Misato before Shinji has even gotten access to Unit 01's pilot seat (it's still frozen in Bakelite at that point).Showing Rei appearing to Misato ties in with ALL of these things as important visual language for viewers.

>>221330915yeah, a lot of people thing eoe has a bad end but i think it's bittersweet, but pretty clearly hopeful despite the immediate gut reaction to the last scene
>>221331181the only grim thing about the ending is the logistics of "uhhhh what do they eat, how do they survive"
>>221329586This is a cool scifi future anon, the blacks were exterminated long before the first impactYou'll either be merged with them or you can hang out in a glowing white-gold cloud city in white robes with them as subservient non-angels in heaven doing nothing but licking gods toes for all eternity, choice is yours. Heaven will be a fucking gangland ghetto if belief in christ is all it takes to get in the door and start licking yahweh toes for all eternity. at least in hell you can probably rank up and get a full-time job torturing people for eternity

>>221331354You're gayer than Kaworu

>>221316173
>>221316964Every man in the world would also be inside you simultaneously. Sounds extremely gay.
What is it about this fucking show that it just won't leave my goddamn mind? Why is this piece of shit show so obsessive? I get it. I understand it. I even did a lore reading to "get it" for real. I understand Anno's message yet I this show keeps lingering on my fucking mind for months after I rewatch it. I've rewatched like 3-4 times by now. I didn't get much after the 2nd / 3rd rewatch. It's very clear what the message is. It's spelled out twice, first in the original 25/26. Then in EoE.Make connections. Touch grass. Have sex. Life is suffering. Keep on living.Yet the show is always at the back of my mind. I've never felt like this about any other show.Am I autistic? Is this what autism feels like? Movies for this feel?
>>221316057People who enjoy the tv ending are terminally retarded.
>>221316216They fell for the homo pandering of thinking that kaworu is anything but an attack on shinji's need for affection in the original show. They pretend he is somehow on shinji's side and cares for him because the character got popular with faggot perverts.
>>221314907You cease to be an active participant, and become a powerless observer. Imagine you are tied down and forced to watch other people's dreams and nightmares, indefinitely. Imagine the panic of waking up without limbs on some cold steel table, laying there for hours on end, unable to do anything. Now imagine it's not just your limbs missing, but your lungs, your heart, your eyes. There is nothing but thought. Nothing makes sense, nothing is real, causality ceases to exist, you don't know what's memory, what's hallucination, what's yours or someone else's. It's just nonsense and noise, forever, with no hope of returning to your previous form as an individual. The very idea of 'you' is quickly subsumed by the incoherent cacophony of formless memory and emotion. You become just an eye, unable to do anything but watch - and think, but why would you do that? Thinking is pointless, it doesn't bring structure to the madness. It just reminds you of your own hopelessness, your own powerlessness. To surrender your very mind and accept this as your new permanent reality becomes the only relief possible to you. The best you can hope for is to simply stop thinking.
BEST GIRLS!!!
>>221336702You describe it as some sort of hell which is definitely not how it is ever implied or suggested to be in the show.
>>221337004What we saw in the show was someone who had a personal relationship with the entity/soul initiating it, who was protected within a machine/angel clone that was implied to have been designed to either have a degree of control over the process, or to otherwise protect or isolate the pilot during it - If instrumentality was the same for everyone regardless of if they were in an Eva or not, SEELE would not have had a reason to try to act against Gendo. The visuals we see at the end of EoE do not represent what most people would be experiencing during instrumentality, Shinji's experience of it is a unique case.
>>221337173Gendo was trying to co-opt the process so he could live eternally with his dead wife. He didn't want to true instrumentality like the others did
>>221337173From how Gendo describes it exactly in the show>It's returning everything to the beginning. Nothing but returning things to the mother which has long since been lost. All the minds become one, obtaining peace forever. Nothing but thatIn the finale of End of Evangelion we see Shinji awaken within the sea of LCL and Rei tells him he can allow for people to exist again but that this will bring back their fear and pain. It seems pretty clear that Instrumentality is something like an eternal passive state of completion/fulfillment, ego death, as opposed to endless confusion and insanity you describe
>>221335157It's because of Asuka. She is very addictive. Asuka is love. Asuka is life.
>>221314907Feels like nothing because you just become a part of a whole. You can't feel your individual neurons, and they don't feel anything individually. Probably something long that. Something larger than the parts takes over and just uses whatever used to be "you" as a tool.
my favorite part is how they completely changed SHinji's character in this to be edgy
>>221334620>completely fumbles the cute nerdy chick that was into him and willing to ignore his autismGod that was so painful
>>221337760>they completely changed SHinji's characterhow? remember he almost kissed asuka in her sleep and that was when he was way more mentally stable
>>221338001big difference between that guy and the guy who masturbated to her unconscious body
>>221337627Eternal passivity and ego death was what I was trying to describe, along with having no barriers between yourself and others. But you're probably right and I do view it as more of a torture than it would be.>>221337618Yes, which in and of itself evidences there's at least two ways it can be done. And they were trying to retrieve unit 1 to ensure it was done their way. So, logically, unit 1 + S2 engine has some degree of control over the process.During the sequence in EoE, Shinji's basically being interrogated. He's not consciously trying to control instrumentality but it clearly reacts to his desires in the end. Again, this doesn't represent what the average person goes through when they get tang'd.

>>221341252So Shinji denied humanity godhood on the same level as the far ancestral race and doomed humanity in the process?
>>221341340First ancestral race*
>>221324015source?
>>221341340Yes.
>>221341663God, i hate Shinji so much, it's unreal.
>>221341746Not as much as he hates you.
>>221341340Kind of? But it wouldn't really be humanity anymore.
>>221329239kek
>>221341799Good. The whole point is humanity sucks and will never achieve anything since they keep fighting and hurting each other. The more people there are, the worse it gets since individual life becomes so worthless.
>>221341340I don't think so. Humanity did advance to the next level, now all of them are fanta forever. It's just that anybody who wanted out got the ability to actually out due to Shinji's...whatever it is he did.
>>221335276Filtered
>>221341972Nah, they're stuck in some shitty limbo and anyone that leaves will find that Earth is completely fucked up beyond salvaging . Shinji made the wrong choice.

>>221319149That sounds like the most reddit thing ever written.
Eva ended as it should, anno did the best to finish it like it did (im talking about the four movies and "get a job/life ending). any other ending would not have been as meta>>221342080more like a 666 firewall
>>221341340that was never an option for humanity. lilith-rei-adam-kaworu ascended, shinji just decided that maybe longing for the womb/void isn't the answer.
>>221341972Humanity just gets tanged but Shinji prevents them from reuniting with the divine super Rei like Seele wanted, hence why Lilith rots away and human souls bleed back out of the black moon onto earth.
>>221342119Funny, print sci-fi subreddit once banned all discussion of Watts for some reason. /sffg/ wouldn't even touch him, I had to find out about Blindsight through /pol/. Something about a man who literally believes human consciousness is a virus doesn't rate among Weir and KS Robinson fanboys.

Human instrumentality is real and the reason God's presence is not apparent now is because God is only fully knowable at the beginning and end which are functionally the same time. Chardin's omega point hypothesis touches on the topic as it centers on the idea that God is the ultimate end of evolution, but in reality God is also the ultimate beginning of evolution.
>>221346590thank you, my weekend is sorted now

>>221346770With Evangelion watch the original series & then End of Eva film.Skip Death & Rebirth (it's just a recap and unfinished first half of End of Eva)And then the Rebuild films which is a remake that veers into its own thing.I would also watch Gunbuster before NGE (it's by the same creator years earlier)

>>221325588Best girl
>>221325828>>221325743>>221325588The "family" should have just been Shinji - Asuka - Rei - Misato. Misato is the "mother" (but fucks shinji". Rei and Asuka are the "sisters" (but fucks shinji). All three get pregnant.
I have inside contacts that tell me a live action Eva movie with a high profile director and a budget of at least 150 million will be announced before the end of the year.
The show is jam packed with imagery, whether just for "show" or not, but there's so much to shizo analyze that it's infinitely analyzable.Anno really pulled a masterstroke on us. This guy https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pjngWJ3MBQ4 does an entire hour schizo analysis on lot of imagery, and most of it sounds plausible but many things are kind of a reach.
>>221349017It would work as a trilogy. I don't think you can do the story justice and start with Shinji fighting an Angel to end of Evangelion. End of Eva is itself a 90 minute movie in itself. Film 1:>Introduce the cast>Misato picks up Shinji during the attack like in Ep 1>Fights a few angels>mysteries and intrigue >Kaworu introducedFilm 2:>assload of angel fights. fight fight fight fight fight>ends with Kawaru being revealed as an angel and his death Film 3:>Covers End of Eva and the end-game
what does evangelion mean?
>>221349136I'm putting people making Eva analysis vids in the same camp as people making Dark Souls vids. These are just pieces of media. Instead think of the meta.The one camp says that the Christian imagry is meaningless, but they're wrong. Shino, Buddhism, and Hinduism, lack the kind of apocalypticism of Christianity, apocalyptic judaism, and Islam. Eva is probably the best show that captures this feeling that the end of the world is looming, and we're in the end-times. It is probably the best adaption of the Christian apocalypse and Christian Millenialist theories of end-times ever. It translates these into a sci-fi story, but it's still about these events. Much in like how 2001 is a sci-fi secuarlized story about meeting God and higher meaning. I'd actually consider Eva a hybrid of 2001 and Devilman, a manga series which likewise became an adaption of Christian end-times as they went. For Angels, they are "biblically accurate", far before this became a meme. Rather than a literal adaption of the Book of John, or angels, it takes the idea very seriously but doing original designs.
>>221349149Evangelion comes from Greek for "good news," i.e. the Gospel. "Neon" is Greek for "new," and Genesis means "beginning" or "creation." So taken together, Neon Genesis Evangelion translates to "good news of a new creation."
>>221349017If they don't cast sexy teens for Asuka and Rei, it's a waste of time.
>>221349017>a live action Eva movieShe's too old now.
>>221348411Blue Blazes.
>>221314798I love the kino angels in this show.
>>221341340>>221341252Was this all intentional then? Creating a child with detachment issues as the spearhead into that new form so that they could predict his choice to reject the godhead and keep humanity from sinking into a hivemind with no barriers?
>>221316964What an utterly retarded post. I would have to assume it's satire.
>>221348420Yeah, seriously. When I found out that that was what Evangelion was driving towards, I was horrified.I know Gendo wants it so he can be "reunited" with his wife, but surely he thought about it on more than a surface level at least once over the years.It's a nightmarish plan if you think about the implications even a little bit.
>>221326391Ironically a very satanic way of looking at the world.
>>221347546>Skip Deathfiltered, i'm afraid.
>>221316818Anon, most Japanese have this yellowish-brownish colour to their skin. It's just that women bleach their skin en masse after high school and/or cake it with make-up.Look up high school class photos for proof.
I unironically want this to happen
imagine getting to just jizz into the every human tang pool lmao. get rekted everyone

>>221350814Would. Every last one of them. Even the boys. ESPECIALLY the boys
>>221350814Why do they all look the same?
>>221350993Unironically they're one of the most inbred people on planet Earth. Not only isolated from the world at large for most of their history, but even extremely insular in-between regions, provinces and villages. Cousin incest widely practised. Also have fucked up teeth en masse, like the British.
oddly enough i just finished watching this the other day, the second anime ive ever watched in my life.I enjoyed it over all, yes, but honestly the way ive seen it hyped up over the years, it was a little disappointing, felt kind of..half baked, I guess shinji gets pretty insufferable in the end, and the whole "we lost and now everyone is merged...but not actually" thing kinda didn't really do it for me
>>221345866>newman spiderthis one fucking got me
I dunno, I think I hate her. She's smiling all the time while willingly torturing her son constantly.
>>221351092just think of it like sienfield. ground breaking and adored by people who watched it when it came out, but nowadays it seems old and basic because now 500 other shows have all done it and better.
>>221351226well shes a single mom, anon
>>221319583goddamn japs cant act
>>221351283It's part of their culture. They're very big on being clear and understood, which is why they over-act and over-emphasize everything in movies and series.Anime becoming a constant and ever-growing influence didn't help in that regard. Imagine if acting in European movies was dictated by Asterix and Obelix comics as the main influence.
>>221351237She's less alive than her son's father
>>221314907Since no one has ever experienced shared consciousness it's impossible to know. Our individuality is formed by our experiences, our memories. What would we be if suddenly it was as if we had lived everyone else's life? You can try to imagine it but it's not something that we can really understand.
>>221351598>Since no one has ever experienced shared consciousnessliterally anyone with split personality, muh dude
>>221349017Elliot Page as Shinji Ikari
>>221349759To not end up in prison you need to pretend Shinji is 24 and not 14 in these short of pictures.
>>221350814Not one single black or non Japanese. Beautiful
>>221352068no, it would be too disappointing to finally go to buck break that sissy and discover theres no joystick to snap
>>221352068>Elliot Page as Shinji IkariPart of his character is him being a horny teenage boy who jizzes on comatose girls
>>221352166they arnt putting that into the live action lmao, be real
>>221352189Just saying that's who the character is. He is the kind of kid who steals panties and jizzes on girls if he can get away with it. Even if they don't show it literally.
>>221352206and you dont think ellen page yearns to do that?
>>221352166Ironically Elliot Page would be too masculine to play Shinji
>>221352306
>>221351226Her whole plan involved mentally breaking her son multiple times so that she can be a floating rock in space or something honestly fuck her
>None of the symbolism means anything, they just added it because it looks coolDon't mind me I'm just musing aloud about things I might say if I were a retard
>“We used Christian symbols because they looked cool. There's no deep meaning.” annowhat did they mean by this
>>221314798I'm actually so racist that I will retain my individuality simply out of hatred for shitskins. I will walk alone through the wasteland of the apocalypse free of all niggerdom, and my loneliness will be utterly eclipsed by the absence of bluetooth speakers.
>>221351031It's not inbreeding, that's just how they look. Asians are more neotenous than the other major racial archtypes, which means childlike features tend to recede only when they get older. Quite contrary to what people tend to think inbreeding is almost never teh result of isolated populations or a lack of foreign genetic exchange, it's a function of social architecture. If a society does not advance above tribal organization inbreeding via cousin marriages becomes inevitable to keep wealth/power within the family.
>>221354376>It's not inbreeding, that's just how they look.Not, it is inbreeding within a small island population + their widespread usage of cousin marriages. It hit Japan especially hard because, unlike the British, they did not become a world-faring civilization that interbred with the local populations and introduced genetic diversity.The single best thing the Catholic Church did for Europe was banning cousin marriages within six steps of relation in the 13th century, thus not only preventing what happened in Japan but also breaking up tribal/clan/familial cliques and actually forcing people to get along, thus not turning Europe into Middle East 2.0 on that front.
>>221354376Also, you're using present-day maps to prove your point, which is incorrect. What caused Japanese to look like took centuries, and was actually worse than the Middle East, which DID have large migrations and an influx of new genetic material via that + slaves.
>>221354423>>221354453>race mixing is actually good for you goym!
remakes were a mistake
>>221354968Funny you post a Jew when they're another example of dysgenic inbreeding.
>>221352206>He is the kind of kid who steals panties and jizzes on girls if he can get away with itEveryone is at that age.
>>221351229>500 other shows have all done it and better.(Wrong btw)
>>221355860oh yeah? name 500 shows seinfield has done better than
>>221314798>"Gohan, be a good boy and bring me your little girlfriend with short hair. My old balls are full and this mature body need fresh meat, a good father must test the potential of his son's mate. My old veinous stinky dick is lusting for this little fresh sweating pussy."
>>221316216>Are any of these remakes worth watching. I thought the original series was okayThey're all visually fantastic and the first two Rebuild films are narratively great. The 3rd and 4th are hit and miss for many people but still enjoyable.
>>221329404They're all of them actually. Even in the original series there is a bunch of alternate universe/time travel related shit.
>>221329462>What's his best work aside from Evangelion?For me its Gunbuster, but most of what Anno has written or directed has been pretty damn good. Even his work as an animator like with the Daicon shorts or Royal Space Force is great.
>>221348086He meant that you got dubs, like your post number ended in 66. He wasn't talking about dubbed anime. Jesus Christ man

>>221358094Their biggest fear is being in the spotlight with nothing clever to say. The Tang World solves that problem permanently.

>>221358449a precursor to FLCL
>>221316216They pissed me off. I read the manga, I thought it was okay but by and large a beat-for-beat re-telling of the original series + EoE. Worth checking out for the artwork, though.
