wiithepeople Posted November 13, 2011 Report Share Posted November 13, 2011 [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A62011nyXNI[/media] Evangelion is far and wide considered to being an anime that has been given a plethora of reviews and a multitude of braching stroylines, spin-offs, and even imitators (The Virtual World arc of Yu-Gi-Oh! and even the final few episodes of 5D's had focused upon Kabbalistic beliefs, as did several other anime from the past 15 years or so). All in all, it's an amazing, albeit short, series. I have the full collection of the original Evangelion (titled [i]Shin Seiki Evangerion[/i]) with both the anime and the English dubbing, and watching all 13 hours of this can really take a toll on you, especially if you're watching it in the middle of night.

burnpsy Posted November 13, 2011 Report Share Posted November 13, 2011 Forgot to mention how it's the top-selling anime of all time despite being deliberately made for the sake of going bankrupt? In any event, never felt the need to watch it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a good anime in the sense of being not just a physical thriller (more or less to the point of beating the senseless s*** out of something past the point of it being dead), it's also an immense psychological thriller as well, and it even inspired me to do a 3-page essay on it during my high school psychology class.

Great Unclean One: VK Posted November 13, 2011 Report Share Posted November 13, 2011 [img]http://www.mangaupdates.com/image/i86835.jpg[/img] If you liked NGE, go scavenge for prints of Skull Killer Jakio. Rare as f***, but from what everyone says, Uncle Ken basically created NGE way before Gainax as part of his Saga of Nothingness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSS Posted November 13, 2011 Report Share Posted November 13, 2011 hasn't this thread been made like over 9000 times before? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Great Unclean One: VK Posted November 13, 2011 Report Share Posted November 13, 2011 Because NGE fans love NGE. And the hardcore fans will say this anime is original and highly influential. And the even more hardcore ones will face my wrath. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] I'm not necessarily one to care about such things. I put this up because I simply enjoyed it. Also, any anime with an opening or ending containing Frank Sinatra, my favorite singer (or at least one of his songs being sung by somebody else) is pretty cool too.

DARKPLANT RISING Posted November 14, 2011 Report Share Posted November 14, 2011 It's one of my most favorite anime. Shame no one except only several actually understand what's happening in End of Evangelion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great Unclean One: VK Posted November 21, 2011 Report Share Posted November 21, 2011 Wonder which pilot is better? Shinji or Shotaro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
