Want? Should want? Should not want? But want. Um.
We were trying to explain Evangelion to a British friend of ours, newer into Anime, and I know we sounded insane.
I think we settled on "Nobody hates Evangelion more than Evangelion fans."
"I don't know if we like it or if it's just held us hostage for the last 20 years."
I will never forget watching the last two episodes at 3:00 in the morning because I couldn't go back to sleep and just staring slack jaw to my computer because I knew the movie wouldn't be out in the states for a while
nothing could have prepared me for ink line art with a hasty scribble of color and still frames.
honestly, if I didn't know that there was more story going on with the manga and the reboot, I would honestly believe that the show's plot was a giant Ponzi scheme. hyping you up more and more because no ending could possibly be satisfactory after the shit you went through to get there
Anno is trapped in this hell forever... so he has trapped us with him.
on another note, weens argue about rei vs asuka when Misato is RIGHT THERE! and those three minutes of her getting railed by kaji while we stare at the cigarette on the window are essential to the plot
the disappointment we feel that it isn't us prepared us for 25 and 26
okay so the gundam expert is going to parachute in here real briefly
and this is basically a what if of the original UC, it's fucking amazing and the animation and character designs rock ass
it's got some evangelion DNA but trust me this shit's gundam all the way down
that said I feel like machu is just what happens if you cross rei and asuka and shinji had to watch or somethin
that's all I needed to hear
I still need to watch the main universe Gundam. wing was my gateway drug
yeah UC is my true love of the gundams so this is just basically fucking heroin
