>Super Robot Wars>Shinji is in the game>He doesn't end up fucked in the head simply because he gets mentored by Koji and RyomaIs it really that simple?
>>728921668>young adolecent doesn't turn into a failure with a proper father figure!no shit sherlock
Pretty much. Dude just needed some positive male figures to actually be there for him. Berserk Eva-01 is such a damned good unit in that game, too.
>>728921668obviously retard everyone in the whole show is carrying around massive parental baggage
>>728921668>good mentors produce good successorsYeah. That's the beauty of srw is it defies annoying mecha tropes.
The entire reason many characters in these types of stories, especially Evangelion, get so fucked up is because there's regularly no one to keep them on track or help fix their mentality. Even official media for Eva kind of tackled this; the manga was really lame, but by straight up skipping some of the most traumatic events of the main series by being in different places at different times or subverting certain things from even happening as a sort of alternate timeline take, Shinji doesn't break down nearly as much and manages to be a lot more affirmative in fixing the world.I wouldn't be surprised if some SRW continuities try to unfuck Char even somewhat, too. I know every time he does CCA the cast absolutely give him hell for it.
>>728921668I mean anybody is better than Gendo. I dislike how Rebuild tried to redeem him when he's still a complete dipshit.
>>728921668The game has Shinji, Koji and fucking Simon. Those lads are gonna beat the cosmic bitch out of Shinji.
It's funny because Anno's said it wasn't his daddy issues driving it but it's so obviously daddy issues.
>>728921851>I wouldn't be surprised if some SRW continuities try to unfuck Char even somewhatY, he abandoned the whole plan when LeLouch got assassinated.
kinda off topic but i read this book and don't really get what it has to do with evangelion >>728921668 and why people comapare themLike it's about the cold indifference of the universe, how you're meant to play roles and since the mc didn't play the role of a grieving son, a caring bf, a repentant sinner. society shat on him and got him excecuted cause they thought he killed somebody in cold blood rather than an accident. the only way i can think about how it relates to shinji is that he wants to be regular boy, have caring parents but is instead pushed into the role of saving the world which he hates. like he rejects the role put on him and that's his main character arc but i feel like there's more i missed.
>In one of the earlier episodes, some guy publicly chews out Misato & Ritsuko because the one mecha that can fight angels is reliant on a mentally unstable child to pilot it (in hindsight, he was absolutely right)>2 episodes later, Misato makes him bunk with some crazy german bitch, dooming humanitySeriously, she did it on purpose. There's no other explanation.
>>728922092Books have speedlines now?
>>728922108nerv couldn't prove him wrong, so they just decided to sabotage his robot.
>>728922108He was wrong because the mentally instability was necessary.
VTX on whiteman steam when
>>728922092Nah that view of life only makes sense if youre an atheist materialistic nihilist.
>>728922459Not really, when Asuka crashed out she couldn't pilot her Eva at all.
>>728922481Never
>>728922647Can I get a QRD on why Asuka didn't get pissed off at Hathaway?
>>728921668Yeah. There was not a single real adult in the entirety of NGE. The closest it ever got was Shinji at the very end of the last Rebuild movie, and he just sort of grew in to it and got sick of the constant bullshit after sulking by himself for weeks (again, nobody bothered properly talking to him let alone mentoring), which was also stupid.
>>728921997Now that the dust has settled I'll just say it. I liked it better than 30 and definitely liked it better than X, T and all the Z sequels. On the fence on how it compares to V. The new UI still looks garbage and I don't really care for a couple of the new entries (coughWFMcough) but I liked that expert mode actually felt like expert mode first time, I really liked the OGs this time around, the interactions between the casts are actually really good here as well, probably because of the whole everyone is living on the city ship thing so it's a given everyone will mostly be doing crossover stuff instead of having stages where series are off doing their own thing.
>>728922560>nihilistCamus is Absurdism, anon; Gemini says>You accept that there is no meaning, but you keep living anyway. You live in a state of constant defiance, finding joy in the very struggle itself.
>>728921668>isn't surrounded by maniac foids>becomes happy
Zambot 3 in SRWZ is my favorite example of this. Actually having support through mentorship/friendships and saying fuck you to the tragic ending of the anime.
>>728921668>mentored by a woman>turns into an effeminate incel>mentored by a man>becomes a healthy young teenThat shrimple
>>72892416930 was dogshit altogether though
>>728921936which one is it with those guys in it? Is it the PSP ones?
>>728921668>young male lacking any parental figure suddenly gains an authority figure (big brother or father) and doesn't come out completely fuckedyeah no shitThe only reason Simon didn't come out as fucked as shinji was because he had Kamina hyping him up and slapping his shit when needed
>>728921668There's a reason why all of history until the shitty modern age boys were taken in to be mentored by groups of men at a young age. You need to escape your mother's shadow to learn independence
>>728924169Really? gonna be real just by looking at the Y roster gives me a headache.At least i had fun with the interactions in 30.
>>728921851You can see Shinji's dick in the manga and it's incredibly tiny.
>>728921825Who is Jesus Yamato

I know every time he does CCA the cast absolutely give him hell for it.Char ends up being a good boi in these games iirc>SRW D (everything got more or less fucked up by Getter Robo Armageddon even if he won the Axis war at the beginning of the game)>SRW Z and onwards (namely because of Durandal in Z1, Lelouch and Zechs in Z2)>SRW T (he never started the Axis war due of humanity living through the Twilight age, with multiple space threats from all sides, but he's in conflict against Haman who survived the events of ZZ)
>>728926210>SUPER ROBOT Wars>half of the super robot series had to be added through DLC
Any SRW with Nadesico in it is the best.
>>728926860Truly, the Super Robots War was in your pocket all along.
>>728921668Ryoma and his buddies tried to molest Rayearth girls in previous game
>>728928015uhhhh hello? Based Police?
Anyone here played the Shinji raising game?Just having Gendo actually be there to support him and try to connect with him as a family already made him a thousand times more stable than his canon self.
I can never take these games with clashing art styles seriously.
>>728921668So like what are the good Getter Robo animes? I've read the manga but like none of them apparently follow the source material and only kinda loosely right?
>>728921668Are you implying Gendo isn't World Best Dad?
>>728926887My only experience with Nadesico is in V with that shitty movie
>>728921668>Ishikawa died before finishing Arc Go was so based /v/, how am I supposed to live with it now?
>>728923308now now anon, i think you're forgetting someone...
>>728921668and yet he doesn't slap the shit out of Asuka like that one Mazinger pilot does with his woman. what a shit what-if scenario
>>728926353Old nickname out of mockery for Kira Yamato, main character of Gundam Seed, and later hijacks the main character position in fhe sequel Gundam Seed Destiny. People called him that back then due Kira's often unexplained ability to survive any certain death situation, like an explosion equivalent to a nuke, and the setting itself bending to his moral grandstanding so Kira never loses an argument or a fight (when he does, there's an excuse for it).He used to be extremely popular too, which made people who hated his antics more annoyed at that fact. Nowadays, it seems more people are not so keen on liking Kira Yamato all that much, his eternal high rankings on official Gundam polls has fallen a little.
>>728928575see that's why you need bright involved too, only the master of slaps can pass on his teachings properly
Why did Go Nagai like evil looking motherfuckers with sideburns so much?
>>728921668Maybe the weight of the world not being all on his shoulders and being shared by tons of star pilots also has something to do with it.
>>728928063Based Police here - what's the situation?
>>728926210>BraigerThat's the spice.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g9jlE9urMBE
>>728928706Bright wouldn't slap Asuka. He'd send Emma to do it, and she's put some weight into, too.
>>728921992>Anno's said it wasn't his daddy issues driving it"Whoever denied it; supplied it"
>>728923308>There was not a single real adult in the entirety of NGE.Kaji.
>>728928705Who's winning the popularity polls these days?
>>728926504MJP is a backseater, Endless Waltz has minimal plot and the fivesome actually get up to plenty crossover hijinks, serving for a large part as the glue keeping shit together. Also - Wufei's plight of the common soldier is actually written semi-decently for once rather than being total retardism.SEED Destiny is post-plot and Shin is written as Domon Kashu's disciple. (Yes- they went there with the God Finger attack and jokes about Shin & Luna pulling of a Sekiha Tenkyoken.)Mercury is tard-wrangled into its own little box of "shit-not-mattering-on-the-grand-scale."
>>728929683I know but I'm so sick and tired of EW being everywhere and TV not getting into any SRWs that are translated.
>>728928575In Asuka's case, punching her in the face doesn't work. Hurting her pride though...
>>728929683Also: the Dorothy kidnapping scenario was 110% distilled kino.
>>728921992Then why was Shinji's final hurdle in the rebuilds talking it out with his dad?
Transformers when...
>>728921668AT Fields are the distance between human heartsthat's why traumatized kids pilot them best
>>728930737Mari is the best pilot though and she is the most stable.
>>728928705Funny, it sounds exactly like that heero faggot from wing.
>>728929683>MJPThey definitely got a better battle theme in Y I think.https://youtu.be/g86LcuguajM?si=B_nhZ9H6GLP1LCuN
>>728922108>some crazy german bitchGuess what, she is not german anymore, she is not an actual "human" anymore.
>>728931634They had Prompt available back in SRW 30 as well, if you had the DKC for the premium sound pack.
If someone isn’t getting fucked up by being near manga/Armageddon Ryoma there is something wrong with it.
Shinji gets all the girls
>>728928705thanks chatgpt gundam is for fags so I don't know watch it
SRW died on the PSP.Didn’t know how got we were eating with Alpha and Z1
>>728932118SRW started off as a handheld series, and had it's best years on handhelds. Sure, Alpha was incredibly good. So was the OG remake. But the best SRWs were on the GBA, and the PSP.
>>728932096even the nortubel girls
>>728932192Played all of them. Or at least most. Amen, Brother.Something got wrong from Z3 onwards and I don’t know what.
>>728921668Shinji is what happens when boys grow up with single mothers.
>>728921825Still inferior to Athrun lol
>>728921825>Every fucking day. Every single fucking day when i come home this little faggot just sits there and gives me this stupid look on his face.
>>728932118on the PS3*Series quite literally peaked right there, afterwards for some reason budget evaporated.
>>728932597SRW Y has him schooling Athrun.
>>728932407youre way offhis mother was dead and his father sent him away to live with i forget who exactly
>>728932935Probably because mecha is a dying genre. It's seen as old people anime by Japan's youth.
>>728932407Shinji needed nurture. EVA is a criticism of expecting young men to bear the brunt and expecting them to somehow thrive.
>>728932407My parents divorced when I was 13 and I've lived with only my mother ever since. Im not full shinji but I am pretty timid .
>>728931559weird youd compare kira to heeroheero just had his own way of doing things and a strong enough conviction to follow through with his actions without hesitation
>>728932261>Shift from pixel sprites and overall lower quality animations outside of Arios-san>Incredibly nerfed casts, characters that would have been playable before either don't appear or are assists in the MC's moveset>Move towards solo units instead of teams as a result of the above, half of the fun of SRW for me is sitting in the squad screen for hours>Dumbed down units, in Z1 you got to use all three forms of the Impulse, now if it appears at all it's just the Force >Removal of SR points made the gameplay feel much less dynamic, there was always a wildcard you needed to play around before As an aside the UI in Y is embarrassingly cheap looking. It just all contributes to the games feeling low budget and low effort compared to the old games. At least we aren't doing 2D jpg maps on the PS3 anymore.
>>728922092> bookit wasnt an accidenthe killed that arab dude because the sun was bothering him
>>728931205Mari isn't canon
>>728933019The point is you don't have a strong positive male role model in your life, retard.>>728933164The point of eva is to accept failure and embrace life even if sometimes you get hurt along the way.That's the edgehog dilemma.
>>728929345real mentors dont discriminate and treat all his subjects the same
>>728933379Copium overdose.
>>728933379Retard
>>728933431then why did you say it was single mother that caused him to be a bitch?youre still way off and it's ironic youd call me retard for pointing it outare you stupid?
>>728932096kallen would've been better off with shinji, at least
>>728933587>then why did you say it was single mother that caused him to be a bitch?Because that's the dynamic in general. I made a generic statement.
>>728933456Bright didn't do a lot of slapping of women, as far as I remember. Emma seemed to be the one that had to correct Fa.
>>728932995>non canon gameYep, SHITTnn still lost
>>728922381This piece of shit would have folded by the shittiest and weakest angel
>>728921668That is one of the best part of SRW, you can have the "appropriate" characters to fix the flaws of other characters, for example with the infamous Cross Ange, in its first game they had that lady from seed being so fucking pissed off over the Cross Ange bitches kill steal bullshit that she inmmediately bought them up and forced a salary system to stop the kill steal and in the second game cross ange appeared they made the ultimate shota be a positive influence for LITERALLY all cross ange's girls, that kid basically kicked the bitcheness out of all the cross ange girls just because he is too nice.
>>728934794Oh and they made Lenouch himself rescue Ange from her execution (by making Heero Yui bomb the whole fucking place), humiliated her older brother and call scum her younger sister in her face.
>put cockhungry german teen Asuka to live with chad>put depressed no-father figure Shinji to live with hot crazy shotacon bitchWoah what could possibly go wrong? It's like the pairings were switched. Gendo is a moron.
>>728934748You're wrong
>>728933062No king rules forever, my son.It’s sad, but it is what it is.Back in 2015 I still hoped they’d finish the OG games and added the rest of @3 protags.This dream is like tears in the rain now…
>>728935080Asuka is not a german anymore, she is a fucking mass produced clone, just like fucking Rei.
>>728934909heero always has great interactions in crossovers>Lelouch: I have your girlfriend, and I'll kill her if you don't do what I say!>Heero: okay, and?
>>728935153>ShitbuildsDidn't watch
>>728935080i don't think gendo wanted shinji to be competent and mentally stable
>>728935121From what I've seen of 30, I don't want them touching OG ever again.No penalty for losing units? No terrain bonuses? Most transformable units don't transform anymore? Getter transformations are attacks?Everyone gets SP regen? Batshit insane choose your own adventure story?Fuck all of that, man.

So what do you guys think of this?https://youtu.be/oPqNXOBld2s?si=vZlU0zqcBfSDNRRFAnd before you crash out, think about it this way: This happened before Franxx was added to SRW.
>>728935080Things were inverted on purpose. Jewish kabblah was trying to bring about the apocalypse again. Just like what's happening in the real world today!>you're just a conspiracy theorist broNo, they have actual businesses in Israel dedicated to doing shit like raising red heifers and facilitating the occurrence of other biblical prophecy to summon the messiah, and kickstart the end of the world. They believe it's a good thing, and it's their duty to do it.
>>728935526every time something gets added before franxx, ichigo gets cucked yet againit's a natural state of being
>>728935647Basehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Doh2LzWkxFU
>>728935681I hope more "impossible" stuff gets added before Franxx, humiliate it for eternity.
>>728928542Best girl
>>728935719I had heard a rumor that the folks that made EVA were hit with some "antisemitism" accusations. Particularly over the old man that would dissolve into orange tang during instrumentality. He was notably left out in the rebuild series. Anno also notably played DUMB AS A MOTHERFUCKER when asked about his inspiration for Evangelion. Said something to the effect of "uh, we just did stuff that sounded cool". I think that was a cop out explanation. A little plausible deniability for the fact that he was literally writing about the most Alex Jones tier shit ever.
>>728933181Troonami fags will always defend their slop, huh? Lmao
>>728933062It's not dying, they're literally just not making any. They used to churn this shit out and it died with the end of licensed games.Every fucking year we used to get a gundam game and a shitty grinch platformer and now we get neither.
>>728921668yes boys need a strong male role model to grow up properly
>>728937453>it's not dying they just stopped making games because... because.. reasons, definitely not because it's dying though
>>728937575Yes. There's like a dozen subgenres of games that died midway through the HD era as game development took longer and cost more. Notice how they stopped making extreme sports games and arcade racers?
>>728937496Not true. A boy taking care of dying weak parents will probably also turn out good.
>>728929487If I remember right:>fucks some stupid alcoholic bitch>comes back just to mess with her more while she has important humanity ending things to deal with>fails to do anything about the dumbass kids who are piloting humanity's last defense, specifically leaving Asuka hanging knowing some of her issues, or not helping Shinji>tries to do some 4d chess shit against NERV, fails and gets killedNah, he was a fucking idiot like the rest.
>>728937892You can have strength of character and be weak and dying and be a positive role model.
>>728937964Wait, what is your definition of an adult? Are you an ESL?
>>728935179True. It's one of the reasons why Wing is always welcome in SRW for me. Just wish it wasn't always Endless Waltz.
>>728927643If i ever met you... I will punch you in the balls.
>>728921668It's like he needed someone to look up to and not have the company of some orange haired cunt and blue haired onahole.
>>728939326Hey! Wing and HeavyArms Custom/EW are god tier designs... Deathscythe is ok, and im indifferent to Altron, Sandrock and Tallgeese3.
>>728928708Because it allows for great moments like this.
>>728921668Ryoma is acting way to calm here. That's an imposter
>>728942231now to be fair, before the orange haired cunt he was doing pretty well with the blue haired onahole, might've even worked out alright for him if he didn't get bullied into submission by a walking inferiority complex right after he finally made a girl smile
>>728942405my problem with EW will always be wing zero's fucking wings, the sleek mechanical design just looks way nicer than "haha i have angel wings :)"
zoids for the next game, for sureright?
>>728942970>inferiority complexGendo hated himself more than anything.
>>728936562retardbro, SEED aired on Toonami too.
>>728929639I'm guessing Char, Banana, and Hathaway these days.
>>728935094He's not. No amount of technical firepower alone was going to destroy those angels, and if you watched the show, you'd know why
Animate it.
>>728932192>the best SRWs were on the GBA, and the PSPLOL
For me, it's EVA-13.
>>728921668Yeah his main problem was always daddy issues
>>728922481I know he has a jungle pubic bush!
>>728921668>in the alternate universe of SRW, Shinji was saved with the power of positive manlinessYou love to see it.
>>728932597>>728934491>jobs to orphee with no gimmicksmeanwhile shinn won a gankfesthttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BdG1RPNMEwQ
>>728944772>>728935094>>728934748>>728922381For what is worth.In Evangelion 2 (the game), there IS a Jet Alone Kai. And while beefier and more useful than his first version, it's still very much a support unit and could not win in a fight against an angel on its own.
>>728946873He had a newtype ghost fighting for him.
>>728944783wait, is Haman going to eat those little people? that's kind of messed up.
>>728945032Feel free to prove me wrong OH RIGHT YOU CAN'T.
>>728947930Like you said, Alpha was really good. Even better than the handhelds in fact.
Gaogaigar just got a new attack.https://youtu.be/Dzbi3WNBXZU?si=cR3txTZJJH_Pufo_
I need Shinji to interact with Coop. It would be so funny.
>>728924169>Better than TMust have been really good then because I love T
>>728926210where is fafner
>>728949645If we're now talking about the Alpha series, does anybody know where this guy on YouTube had a menu translation patch for SRW Alpha 1. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MKgO7IEDaBM Because while I've been able to make due with using LunaTranslator oc translations, it's fucking annoying not recognizing new abilities that pop up.
>>728921668Yeah it's that simple.
>>728922647I think latent instability was the idea. you of course couldnt pilot an eva while screaming crying and foaming at the mouth
>>728921668It's to show that he had it in him the whole time. Some people tend not to notice in the original series and dismiss him as a little bitch, but the manga and hell, even Rebuild put this on full display. Under different circumstances, he could have become like Amuro Ray. Shinji is more of a hot blooded super robot pilot than he appears to be at a glance
>>728921668Seriously how do you become a proper father figure?Asking for a friend.
>>728937964By that definition Gendo is the "real" adult because he focuses on having humanity survive and not some teenage melodrama and alcoholic retard shotalust
>>728950893sometimes it feels like the only thing separating amuro and shinji was a good childhood
>>728951120A good childhood is pretty much the only thing separating Amuro from a lot of protagonists, even within the gundam setting like Kamille.I can't state enough how important it is that Amuro turned out the way he did due to his upbringing, even if he did start off as a spoiled brat.
>>728947930The GBA games are all varying degrees of mediocre. Even the good ones were made wholly irrelevant by the PS2 remake. Z2 is a huge downgrade from Z1.Did you really need this explained to you?
>>728951097>Gendo is the "real" adult because he focuses on having humanity surviveWhat the FUCK show did you watch? Because it wasn't NGE.
>>728951120It's been a month since I watched all of 0079 with my dad dubbed, but yeah, Amuro had a pretty good childhood compared to most mech protags. The one major blemished I guess was going into space with his dad while his mom stayed behind.Good news, Mom was still Alive and seemingly cared for him before she learned he was now part of Fed army and even then, it's complicated. His life stared to go down hill after taking part of OYW. Dads fucked in the thanks brain-damaged gained from being vacuumed into space, Mom sorta hates him because she knows her son is a killer and no longer innocent, watched a bunch of civilians die in front of him, and's is responsible for the deaths of thousands, soldiers mind you, still there is blood on his hands.Honestly, it's a miracle Amuro didn't break after the OYW. Maybe being Newtype helped him or something.
>>728930737That's also why Shinji and Asuka are the only ones to come back. Ironic.
>>728951932Amuro did suffer some severe Shell shockedness in Zeta so it's not like he completely escaped unharmed in the OYW
>>728951093This dude definitely molests his son
>>728952193Guess I should finish watching Zeta with my dad then.
>>728951326Amuro didn't exactly seem quite right at the start either. he lived by himself and would forget to eat or bathe if he didn't have Frau tard wrangling him.
Never played SRW, does my man Jerid ever show up and get a redemption? dude really seems like he could've turned it around if the universe hadn't been hell bent on fucking him over.
>>728951120Amuro had a much better support than Shinji because while Amuro did initially clash with lots of his fellow crew he did eventually come to see White Base and the rest of them as a pseudo-family. Shinji didn't have the same kind of support because the people around him were dealing with their own issues that they never fully resolved as well.
>>728952692He gets a redemption in a tiny amount of games, even manages to bury the hatchet with Kamille in one of them.Granted Kamille is the one that has to start that discussion.>>728952476Amuro was the average 4chan user at the start so you aren't wrong lol.
>>728952692Only in V where he can be a recruitable unit.
>>728952476Yeah I don't know why all these retards are saying he had a good childhood.
>>728951649I admit it's been years since I watched it, but wasn't the alternative to SEELE orchestarting the Third Impact just having the Angels do it once they reach the core? And SEELE would've done it anyway and NERV couldn't stop them as shown in EOE, so having Gendo (I think that's what he originally planned) or Shinjji in charge of it is a lot better than literal glowniggers
>>728933281Didn't the arab pull a knife on him or something? I vaguely remember that.
So what was his plan B if Shinji had actually fucked off for real?
>>728952936Well, in comparsion to some of the animes I watched, it's pretty good. Mom's Alive, Dad's alive, has a childhood friend that cares about him, that's great in the grand scheme of things.Lelouch, he watched his mother get gunned down and witness his sister go blind and lose the ability to use her legs from the same incident that took his mother life. Dad then sends you to a foreign country to be pawns in his scheme, and seemingly doesn't give a fuck if you die in a war he then starts against said foreign country.Shinji, watched his Mom seemingly die in front of him (Memory holds the whole event) and at time of his mother death, his father basically abandons him to relatives who don't really care about you.Simon, watched both his parents die in a cave-in caused by an earthquake, so he's an orphan.
>>728953194No, Unit 01 was always at the core of the Instrumentality Project. Gendo wanted it to happen as much as SEELE and only cared about being reunited with Yui. He didn't give a shit about humanity as a whole.
>>728952936because that was purely on him, kid just had mechanical autism and that's why he stayed in his room all day working on haroand sure you could argue his dad wasn't around all that much but he still had friends his own age who cared about him and he has no childhood traumas fucking him up like most other mecha protags - in comparison, his upbringing was pretty good
>>728952936If anything Amuro is set up just like Shinji, but Bright was there to actually be a positive male role model for him.
>>728953573Parents being alive don't matter when they're both absent from his life.
>>728953747>he has no childhood traumas fucking him up like most other mecha protagsRetard.
>>728954207you want to elaborate on that, or have you just decided we're talking about the events of the show and not how he was at the start of it?
>>728953747>and he has no childhood traumas fucking him up like most other mecha protagsThe One Year War IS basically his childhood trauma, and his full introduction into it is his neighbors getting blown the fuck up.
I don’t think Tem was neglectful. Absent maybe, but because of his work mostly. If he really was a shitty parent Amuro wouldn’t have taken after him with his interest in mechanics or chased after him in Side 6. Sure, when they reencounter Tem cares more about the Gundam than his own family, but he’s demented by then and Amuro reacts as if it were unusual from him.
>>728935080Shinji was supposed to live alone, like Rei. Misato taking him in was her own initiative.
>>728954342It's obvious you've only watched a handful of shows. Even if you limit it to just Gundam MOST protagonists don't have any childhood trauma.
>>728954375...fucking knew i should've just said "up to the start of the anime" because apparently you dumbasses don't have common sense>>728954513and for you evidently i should've put 'most other SIMILAR protagonists'apologies for thinking you guys actually wanted to talk about shit and weren't just feeling like pedants
>>728953717So he had a selfish reason, but he was still on the side defending humanity. Though now that I type it out I realize you can say this for most characters in NGEAnd judging by SEELE's action and Gendo threat to fire Shinji, they only needed Unti 01 (and awakened Yui), the pilot was a bonus
>>728954758Gendo was not on humanity's side. He wanted to fuck over everyone to get his wife back.Watch the show and EoE.
>>728953392get rei to do it arguably rei was plan a and he just brought in shinji because he might connect with unit01 better (which he did)
>>728954375it's a bit hazy if anything was bothering amuro before the oyw startedwe do know his dad was barely around and he had been separated from his mother for a decent amount of timehe seemed more or less adjusted to where he was and everyone who knew him seemed to like him well enough (except for hayato because he's an insecure little bitch)
>>728935389That's far enough Eva
>>728955024>he seemed more or less adjusted to where he wasCould have sworn he was a super autismo tinkering with machines all who would forget to eat and dress if his one friend didn't come in to check on him.
>>728955024at the start of 0079 Amuro was basically an emotionless robot that shut everyone out. he definitely had issues that were getting worse. The White Base environment forcing him to interact with people did wonders for his mentality.
>>728954832I did watch it, even Death&Rebrith, I think our misunderstanding is that I don't think third impact is bad by itself and even if it was, it was inevitable, so Gendo trying to take control over it from SEELE is as good as it gets
>>728921701>>728921668
>>728955231shame about him having to kill people due to the war though
>>728956859you win some, you lose some.
>>728955801>I don't think third impact is badHOLY FUCKING RETARD
>Mention Evangelion>Thread isn't waifuposting>Actually see other mecha series discussed tooWhy is this extremely rare?
>>728957478blue or red weren't mentioned in the op
>>728957368>It's bad because... it just is!It happened in EoE and showed that Shinji could change the world to whatever he wanted, if you put someone intelligent there instead of an antisocial sperg it's pretty much just magic that can fix every issue in the world
>>728957691only someone with severe mental illness could be the catalyst for third impact the original plan was rei, who was brought up to be borderline emotionlessthen SEELE pivoted to shinji and had to make him suffer ego death for it to start
>>728957478Unironically because it is happening outside /a/
>>728944772Literally the previous episode was about beating an angel with firepower alone despite it having the strongest AT field to date.
>>728955231uh amuro wasnt an emotionless robotbut he was resentful of his absentee parents and had certain levels of naivete that had to be both physically and experienced out of him in a short period of time
>>728943383As long as it uses the liberties that the anime took.Case in point: The Deathsaurer wasn't actually fuckheug, but the animu had the good sense to change that. I mean, just look at how hilarious the bio tyrano was in genesis. You can't take that shit seriously, no matter how ridiculously overpowered it was.
>>728924169I like Getter Armageddon but by 30 even I had to admit that version of Ryoma needed to take a break despite all the different things they did with the Armageddon team. I actually had not seen Getter Arc so was going into Y not really knowing much about it. And yeah, I quite like the new Getter Team. Takuma's hot blooded but a different enough character to stand out from his dad and would not mind seeing Arc as the Getter rep for a couple more SRWs.
>>72892543030 had Rayearth though. Y has fuckall for a roster, fucking Gaogaigar is not in somehow.
>>728958551After what 30 did GaoGaiGar not being in is a blessing.
>>728957478Because the OP was specifically going for SRW Evangelion.
>>728921668Surprised the last rebuild movie isn't it a game yet. The other 3 had.
>>728951932Well he did break after the OYW due to the all the things that happened plus Lalah's newtype ghost telling him to kill himself.
>>728955191https://youtu.be/vJnX3Zw_Z9k?si=wsxKv2u5oFlr_Axd
>>728953375>>728933281The Arab sliced his friend and he (correctly) assumed the guy would come bak to finish the job so he shoot firstThe sun excuse was he just being autistic and thinking other people would be as coldly rational as him
>>728958948>lalah haunts the fuck out of amuro for the rest of his life>gquacks comes out and suddenly she's clearly got a favorite and it's not the dude she pestered for 7 years of house arrestgod i hate that woman
>>728952386zeta's great it has a couple of slow periods but when it get's good, it's pretty great ending is pure kino, i still can't believe that the movies changed it, the cowards
>>728958507>DeathsaurerI still remember the ending where the waifu and the dino tried to sacrifice themselves to stop Deathsaurer but MC went "THIS IS NOT EVANGELION!" and instead shot himself out of the super railgun and one shot the deathsaurer.
>>728921668Everyone at the NERV base was awful, its what this is implying.
>>728921668I like giant robots and want to watch mecha anime but there's hundreds of them and I'm bad at sitting through long episodic media, what should I watch?Preferably something with cool dudes fucking shit up instead of women and children crying about muh war like little bitches
>>728959393g gundam
>>728959504>I'm bad at sitting through long episodic medialol
>>728959393Watch Darling in the Franxx.
>>728959698yeah, g gundam's that good you won't even feel itwatch g gundam
Whose dick I have to suck so they put Vandread in a mainline SRW? It's true they don't add it because Earth is the big bad?
>>728959393do the impossible see the invisible
>>728934491Love the justice because instead of throwing funnels, IT becomes the giant laser cannon.
>>728959194Lalah is one of the most realistic teenage girls i've seen in an anime.
>>728959194I can't wait for guuuux to be added to SRW for one single reason: they will allow us to save the Milf.
>>728960287Deux and Four hanging out talking about their psycho gundams would be fun.
>>728957478because srw thread ad shitting on anno's bad writing
>>728962470I see blue hair I immediately think Layzner, is it?
>>728928708sideburns were the style at the time
>>728926307He is a grower.
>>728962841I'll give you another hint
>>728958965getter is always kino
I am baffled New Getter has still only been in one, One, SRW to date.
>>728957478/v/ is a Betty vs Veronica board.
>>728921668Evangelion when put into SRW always ends up having its most downer moments averted due to interactions with other series.And Shinji being surrounded by other, more confident characters who also care about him, actually causes him to develop into someone with a backbone of his own.Hell, it fixed the cast of Gundam SEED. That's a big improvement.
>>728932995>SRW Y has him schooling Athrun.And being mentored by Domon. He's even the senior student.
>>728935526I read a lot of japs with mixed opinions about this, or outright mad. Apparently that vtuber is kinda divisive within geass fans. >This happened before Franxx was added to SRWGood, but it's not exactly the weirdest addition ever, not even to DD itself.
>>728967597The point is that more "weird" stuff will be added to SRW before Franxx.
>>728967762Again, good, that shit deserves nothing.
>>728967597Is DD actually popular or even sustainable?
>>728959003He directly states in his testimony he did not think he or his friends were in any further dangerHe killed him because the Sun was bothering him, and it was hotActing like Meursault dindu nuffin is an extremely weird take that I've seen far too often
>>728967849Feels wrong without the other 6 heroes.
>>728967941I guess, must be to be alive after 6 years, I think it already went longer than Cross Omega did.I stopped playing a long time ago because I lost my account, but the game is really whale heavy, and I see a lot of japs who play it not being shy about how much they've spend on it.
What is this "Franxx" some anons speak about and why are you happy that is not in SRW?
