>a Neon Genesis Evangelion game for the PS2 came out in 2003>the production involved Anno and the writing team giving a 10 hour long exposition dump to the developers>it features social simulation gameplay that ties into the combat a full 3 years before persona did it, branching storylines, what-if scenarios, unique campaigns for every cast member (all of which are both playable and romanceable), new designs for both evas and weapons straight from Sadamoto and Yamashita, and never before seen lore canon to the show>despite the NGE fandom being one of the most autistic around, it has never been translated officially nor by fanshow is this possible?
Without looking up, I'm going to hazard a guess it's because it's a shitty VN and there is no gameplay.
>>726161537Who gives a fuck about this shit?
>>726161732IncorrectIt's actually half life/social sim and half tactical mecha combat
>>726161537>>the production involved Anno and the writing team giving a 10 hour long exposition dump to the developersAnno be like: "yeah lol just put in whatever sounds cool"
>>726161537I'm so tired of shitshuka.
There should be an evangelion action game. Tokyo-3 is literally a playground for action set pieces since it can rearrange and supply weapons. Angels are abstract and weird enough to fulfill literally any kind of enemy role. And the EVA are like giant ninjas. Would be cool to base missions around their 2:00 unplugged time limit as well.
>>726162059why?
>>726161537How are you going to fan translate a PS2 game? Is it even possible in a technical sense?
>>726161537It’s not fair
>>726162159The JoJo Golden Wind game on PS2 got fan translated.
>>726161934I remember when I watched the series when I was like 16 or something like that, of course it had a huge impression on an edgy teenager, so I looked up things about the series immediately after finishing it, and then reading that Anno basically put christian symbology in it only because it was cool and for no other particular reason, I laughed so much. I clown on everyone who takes the series seriously ever since then. I enjoyed it don't get me wrong, but people who think this shit is deep are getting fooled big time lmao.
>>726162159It's doable but very, very hardThere's a PSP port, that has texture replacement so it would be easier, but the graphics are worse and there's content missing
>>726162159there are plenty of fan translated ps2 games
>>726162276>Anno basically put christian symbology in it only because it was cool and for no other particular reasonAnon that was him clowning in the interviewer, who was accusing him of making christian propagandaIn reality the show doesn't have christian iconography apart from the crosses here and there, which are ultraman references (which itself was ironically created by an unironic christian convert), what it does actually have is a ton of jewish mysticism like the kabbalah and freudian/jungian psychology terms which are all actually well researched and used consistently in the show
Just postin' me wife
>>726162110What I envision is something that's half Persona so you can date Asuka and half Bulk Slash/Armored Core/Slave Zero, or maybe even an X-COM like
>>726161537God damn, I knew this game existed but never realized it had anything interesting going on. I always thought it was just a mediocre cash-grab riding on the popularity of the comic. I’m definitely going to check it out now.
>>726162276>Anno basically put christian symbology in it only because it was cool and for no other particular reasonI'm tired of this bullshit lie, it's 2025 and it's still being parroted.
>>726162827That game is actually where all the currently agreed upon knowledge of the background lore of the series comes from
>>726162276>I enjoyed it don't get me wrong, but people who think this shit is deep are getting fooled big time lmao.it is deep, but for the characters, not for the lore
>>726162612Why is your wife so prone to gifting people dirty magazines?
>>726161537I've this thread multiple timesThe same reason was given, translation attempts fell through due to difficulties
>>726164504There was supposedly an active translation effort for the PSP version though
>>726162298>there's content missingSays it literally has more stuff than the PS2 version. Sauce.
>>726164954>14 and 30yikes
>>726165347https://wiki.evageeks.org/Neon_Genesis_Evangelion_2Two scenarios were removed, but several were added, so there's more content overall.
>>726162110>tfw no femcel gamer gf
>>726161537>despite the NGE fandom being one of the most autistic around, it has never been translated officially nor by fans>how is this possible?Weebs don't want casuals to play their shit in English.
>>726162276Lorefags are insufferable... Ohh my God muh deep lore that does nothing but fill space on wiki articles!!!!Shut the fuck up. If it's cool, it's cool.
>>72616288490% of eva discourse on the internet is based on early 2000s rumors posted on evageeks that were literally false
>>726169690Asuka's not a femcel she was the biggest stacy at her school
>>726173216And yet she was unable to score with any of the guys she actually gave a shit about
>>726162276People don't think Eva is deep because of the crosses. They think it's deep because of the Jungian psychology shit.
>>726161537>>726161853It does sound interesting, I wasn't familiar with it. It's 'Neon Genesis Evangelion 2', yeah?Too bad it's in japanese only, it looks good.
>>726173948Yeah, you could keep translating the text on screen but it would be tedious
>>726161806One single guy, who keeps making these threads.
>>726161537My time learning Japanese has paid off that I'm able to read this and understand it.
>>726174028Yeah... I'd take a machine translation version, but translating it manually like that would take away all the fun, AND i'm sure the translation would be kinda wrong, too.
Imagine destroying the entire world just so you can try to get your son laid.
give me a hug man
>>726174752No more hugs, Asuka
I often fantasize about how much better the world would be if every Asuka fan simply dropped dead. The internet would sure as hell be improved tenfold almost right away. Of course, this would be the easy way out. Something much more appealing would be forcing Asukafags to meet violent ends. And I don't mean accidents, like accidently falling into a meat grinder. And of course, lethal STDs are off the table too, because that requires having sex, which is something beyond any fathom of an Evangelion fan. No, what I mean is murder. I'd really like o break into the house of these degenerates - excuse me - I mean their mother's house where they live, and then strangle them with a nice, thick rope. I'd hold a picture of their beloved waifu in front of them as they black out, giving them a pittance of hope that they might see her in the afterlife. But then right as they're on pit's brink, I'd release the rope, crush the picture, and then stomp on their head over and over until what was once their visage is reduced to a pile of crimson mush, the same colour as Asuka's suit. I could then take comfort, assured that like every Asuka fan, it is impossible that they reproduced, and thus the taint of Evangelion is extinguished from their bloodline upon their death.>Inb4 Rei and MisatoThey can both die too. Their fans are just as mentally ill as Asuka's. The only decent girl in that show was the blonde one in the lab coat, and I can't even be bothered to remember her name.
>>726175654I ain't reading all that
>>726175654she's a lesbian, bro
>>726174135>all characters are depicted as 18 years old
>>726173325A socially retarded kid with daddy issues and a man 20 years older than her?
The best motw in the show is a tie between a blue tetrahedron and a beach ball.
>>726162220
>>726174802YOU OWE ME
>>726177170oh okay
This game unironically has a very comfy vibe and aesthetic
>>726169690Button masher...I miss my Saturn.
>>726177170*jacks off on your sleeping body*
>>726162554>what it does actually have is a ton of jewish mysticism like the kabbalah and freudian/jungian psychology terms which are all actually well researched and used consistently in the showA lot of Japanese stuff does actually, especially anime and vidya. Aren't there tons of freemasons over there?
>>726172731Evageeks actually worked to dispel a lot of those retarded rumors, like the evil otaku who sought to kill anno for his gay ending, or MUH BUDGET I think people are more well informed these days about the elevator scene and last two episodes not being about the budget, but to this day people still shit on episode 19 of kare kano because they actually believe it wasn't a style choice, but a matter of "gainax ran out of budget hurrrrrrr"
>>726177170Why is she so mean to Shinji?
>>726179163Women LOVE to shittest their men. If you are a s_ y boy nice guy simp they use you as a backup guy. If you are a chad who tells them to shut the fuck up they jump on your dick first.
>>726162276>the christian symbology is just aesthetics whining againOh yeah, did you read that on /v/ in the past few months? And so you looked up things about the series immediately after watching it yesterday? Because you're 16 years old? And you're retarded, you say?Yeah, that does sound like a real story.
>>726178615The japanese treat abrahamic religions the same way westerns treat greek or egyptian onesLike a mythology
>>726161537Now I know this exist and I am depressed
>>726179912So they think greek mythology is real?also>tfw all your favorite vidya creators and mangaka are going to hell
>>726162159Monster hunter 1 and dos were translated and got online support, you just need some passionate guys, I guess this kinda proves EVA is an anime for casuals that don't actually care about the series beyond participating in the communiy.
>>726179163she sees too much herself in him and she hates herselfit also doesn't help that shinji can be the man she wants him to be on occasion, but as everyone gets more and more fucked up shinji starts retreating back into his shell and asuka's self loathing only increases and shinji proves himself the better pilot while 'ignoring' her
>>726169690asuka is an animal crossing bitch
>>726180798Yeah, Shinji is more of a red blooded mecha protag than most people think from memes
>>726177028It's an octahedron
>>726179163Because she actually fell for Shinji and gets mad that he can't see that.
>>726177028
>>726181062I love that nigga like you wouldn't believe>plays a single opera choir MIDI note every single time it's on screen I don't know why that tickled me, every time
>>726161537The reason why it's not translated is because the effort to translate it exceeds the effect of just learning Japanese.
Who will save the eva franchise? Anno clearly wants to hold talented people like Tsurumaki hostage, and just nostalgia wank for the rest of his life, so who will take the mound?
>>726180186No they just think it's all cool shit that's not real. They're a very secular people
>>726181409Thank God you speak for every single Japanese citizen on the planet.

>>726181553He wants someone to translate it
>>726161537All that shit is translated on the Evageeks wiki, and none of it matters to the plot of the series if they never make reference to it, which probably will never happen because now that the remakes are over there's no new content to include the lore in, unless they decide to make a sequel or something.
>>726161537>[Glass Her]
>>726181692Shinto is just a variety of folk beliefs & traditions, it isn't an organized religion people really adhere to the in the way people adhere to Christianity or Islam
>>726181750>All that shit is translated on the Evageeks wikiYou mean the classified files, none of the funny in-game eventsLike when PenPen is watching TV and falls in love with a celebrity dog in a commercial, then finds out that it's a male while watching a documentary about it and faintsYes, that's in the game

>>726181553the eva threads will continue until morale improves enough for a fan translation.
>>726181385from what little i've seen of gquuuux is embarrassing there was zero need for him to autistically recreate the opening of msg damn near 1:1just cut the bullshit and do a full on remake of the original show at that point
>>726181692No, reincarnation has not been scientifically proven through epigenetics; while epigenetics shows that experiences can be passed down to future generations through genetic markers, this is not the same as the concept of an individual soul or consciousness reincarnating into a new body. The field of epigenetics demonstrates how environmental factors can change gene expression without altering the DNA sequence itself, and these changes can be inherited. However, this is a biological mechanism for passing down traits like stress responses, not evidence for the survival of consciousness after death.

>>726162276Whether it means anything or not doesn't matter, what people actually like the show for is its exploration of the difficulties of intimacy between people, not the symbolism or the worldbuilding or any other thing.

>>726161537No one's gonna translate the game for you no matter how many times and in how many boards you make this thread, you lazy faggot. Better start learning japanese.

Ritsuko has nice legs. Aside from that I can't like her since she's violently jealous and hates the Rei.
>>726186320Bigger!
>>726161537I'll have to keep this in mind for when my Japanese progresses to a semi-decent point
>>726162159What would make it any harder than fan translating a game on any other system?
>>726182823No, ainon is correct in their use of the word.The prior anon claimed reincarnation is proven through epigenetics.
It hasn't been translated because it's uncompelling. VN with jrpg gameplay right? Games that people put in tons of work translating or porting are usually interesting as games on their own merit >Blah blah social, romanceThese concepts as part of a "game" are unambiguously for losers and repel talent
>>726188337>she's violently jealous and hates the ReiHot, plus Rei lives don't matter
>>726162276>Visual elements were designed to be cool>This means the series can't be taken seriouslyhuh
>>726184194
>>726188759It can't be taken seriously because it isn't serious. It's artistic. There is nothing to take seriously. It's an entertainment product for profit.
>>726180846Man i'm still mad about how the rebuilds fucked up this scene
>>726188731Persona?
>>726162276Eva isn't supposed to be Christian, in fact it has more in common with Nietzsche's works. The people who go on about how it's influenced by the Bible because of the aesthetic elements and names it lifts from there completely miss the actual point of the series.
>>726188819If that's your criteria for whether or not something should be taken seriously, basically no piece of fiction or art can be taken seriously and everyone interested in it and passionate about it is just wasting their time
>>726188787This played in my head:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ABxL2LrmWoM
>>726189004Anon it doesn't have a particularly comprehensible story. There's tons of shit that is just meaningless too.I note that people like you aren't typically book readers and hence don't understand storytelling
Asuka is clearly the superior girl
>>726162276No one besides reddit and twitter fags who watched the show during covid think that it's deep because of the crosses or Adam or whatever. When actual human beings are into Eva and think it's deep it's because of how the relationships between the characters play out and are portrayed>Anno basically put christian symbology in it only because it was cool and for no other particular reason,This isn't even true, it's a rumor spread about the series for like 2 decades now but it's always just been a misunderstanding
>>726188952My theory is that there are 2 kinds of people who get hung up on this:One type is the autists where a story "theme" and another visual aesthetic "theme" is literally too much for their working memory, everything must be connect at all times and anything useless must be cut off like their pet hamster's water supply or their penis.The other type is the Christians, who are so narrow in their education, experience and worldview that they struggle to accept anything Christian-related as not being the most important subject at all times.>Whenever Christianity's not on the screen, all the other characters should be asking 'Where's Jesus?'
>>726188734You need to let it go, Ritsuko.
>>726189124>it doesn't have a particularly comprehensible story.It does if you're not a sped>There's tons of shit that is just meaningless too.Not every element in every story is going to have a specific meaning, but most of Eva was made with an actual purpose relating to the central themes of the story. You'd know this if you didn't believe bullshit spread on reddit and in youtube comments sections>I note that people like you aren't typically book readers and hence don't understand storytellingOh give it up, you pseud faggot, I've read plenty of books. What have you read lately? Still making your way through /lit/'s meme trilogy?
>dude it's like totally NietzscheLmao high schooler of the dayNo actually it's about Japanese people and their dad complexes lmao like it fucking appears to be
>>726189421You don't present as a reader and cannot display a reader's affect. Point made You people who never challenge yourself in life think Japanese stuff is ever good when in reality they have close to 0 seriously celebrated stories as a culture. Try reading Dune. It's a good book to randomly suggest for pleasure reading to beginners.
aren't most of eva's religious themes more in line with judaism and that shit?instrumentality is just tikkun olam, lilith betrayed adam, and that sort of shit
>>726189287More or less, yeah. I also think there's an offshoot of the second type you describe who aren't Christians but, like Christians, demand that everything they enjoy agrees with their worldview, and they typically ignore anything that would point to the story not just nodding along with everything they say.
>>726189534>You don't present as a reader and cannot display a reader's affect. Point madekek, alright, you baited me
>>726189671>I know, I will appear even more like a stunted 4chan person with an extremely limited mental lexicon, that will show him
>>726189438A story can have more than one thing going on
>>726189752But it doesn't though, it's just an anime story. There aren't any complex themes. Nothing special happens. Shinji jerks off on someone I guess ..the original ending is pure art fag shit with 0 redeeming qualityGet over yourself and literally read a book. Do you want to experience the feeling evangelion tried for? Read Solaris
>>726169690why did nips love the saturn so much
>>726189720No, I just refuse to believe that anyone could write something like that with a straight face. If you were actually trying to bait me, and this is just further baiting on your part, congrats again on that. If you're genuinely serious about me not "displaying a reader's affect", then I'd just recommend that you head to twitter or start a substack or something along those lines, since those places would allow you you can spew pseud garbage all day and play at the idea of being someone who isn't too scared to take an IQ test for fear of landing in the direct center of the bell curve.

>>726161537didnt get an answer the 800 other times you made this thread?
>>726190142Anon evangelion is for children. There is nothing to see in it. you are not arguing for some deeper meaning. You are arguing for your own ineptitude. I fully understand that it appears deep *to you*This is why you are being suggested actual deeper, better works Your generation has an exceptional problem with this. Do you realize that in the past everyone didn't always argue? I watched it on VHS before you were born. Go ahead and address the fact that the real ending is fucking ultra masturbatory I hate myself Japanese shit before it was forced to be reformulated into Jap mindfuck apocalypse bullshit In the end the series is about the self doubt Japanese males have. As it appears to be. As the original true ending makes very certainYou are undeveloped as a person and trying to argue. I have experience more and better of all media than you. And women. Learn to listen. You have nothing to say
>>726190312>he didnt get it
>>726190340Intelligent people are expressive. You're afraid of words because you can't write well..non reader
>>726190101>No, you just genuinely come off as someone who has never read for pleasureI have, not sure what else to say on that point.>Note how you've posted several times but you just repeat the same rote concepts.And you don't? You've said nothing of any substance, just "it means nothing" on repeat and telling people to read books because you have a sixth grader's idea of intelligence where you think more books = more smart. I was being sincere when I told you to go to Twitter or substack, by the way. You'd probably do fantastic on there because your understanding of what being intelligent actually is fits with people on there to a much greater extent than it does people on here.>Your mind doesn't go anywhere while it "operates"Where does yours go? You've done nothing but claim your own superiority with nothing to back it up and insist that an anime series has no meaning to it (while also trying to act like you don't care about it and anyone who does is lame, despite caring enough about it to argue about it on here). Do you do get enjoyment from anything besides complaining about whatever you consider "low brow"? Have you had an original thought in your life?
