to start off this fun Rant about an ANime As brilliant as it is confusing......Who is your favorite character?


Mines Asuka cuz she is scary and makes shinji squirm at night.Mwa hahahaha

but unit 01 is cooler than 02....sigh

i got it, upgrade Unit 02!!!!! ^_^

right so who everyones favorite character?

Mines Asuka cuz she is scary and makes shinji squirm at night.First time I've heard it called that :heh:

Mines Unit 1, hey its a character & you didnt say human sized, though Gendo, Misato & Pen Pen are close behind in no particular order depending on the moment I think of it

i guess your right but i meant to say human sorry for the
lack of clarity...

and gendo scares me, i suspect he thinks dirty thoughts about rei

j/k, but he does scare me:\

my favorite is Rei, and that cool red eva.

am i the only one who haves shinji and whants him to die a horrible desembowelment of a death?

hey give the boy a break he lost his mom, his dad abandoned him, he has socio-phobia, and needs zoloft like a stoner needs rehab.

o and "that cool red EVA" thats unit 02;)

Or a blood covered Unit one :shifty:....

I hate to take sides in the anime due to being labeled as a /X/ freak, but my favorate character is Rei.

Mysterious, exacting, sisterly, exc... The typical description explains what I like about her.

My favorite character is definately Asuka! I dunno I just can kinda relate myself to her and she is not a doll! lol Otherwise for the adult figure type I would say Misato b/c I'll probably be like that when I get to her age. lol ~*Asuka*~

All Eva characters suck, except for Shinji's mum and she doesn't get much screentime. Shame <_<

PenPen.

Ｉ　ｌｉｋｅ　Ａｓｕｋａ　Ｌａｎｇｌｅｙ．　Ｉ　ｇｏｔ　ａ　ｆｅｗ　ｆｉｇｕｒｅｓ　ｏｆ　ｈｅｒ　ｉ ｎ　ｍｙ　ｒｏｏｍ．

Yay! Go the penguin! With beer! If remember correctly.

PenPen was the most horrible random thing in the whole series x_x

True... I'm still trying to figure out what the point of a battle penguin is....

PenPen was the most horrible random thing in the whole series

I know, he really didn't belong in the series if you ask me.

Better than a bunch of teenagers whining.

Pen Pen is Misato's pet and also a gift from Kaji. He is no ordinary penguin but also was an experiment and a war penguin as well...lol ~*Asuka*~

my favorite is Rei, and that cool red eva.

am i the only one who haves shinji and whants him to die a horrible desembowelment of a death?

i agree complitly Rei is the coolest charecter of em all and i want shinji to die a "horrible desembowelment death" so your not the only one

Pen Pen is Misato's pet and also a gift from Kaji. He is no ordinary penguin but also was an experiment and a war penguin as well...lol ~*Asuka*~

So it has a little background story. It's still a random mascot element which I generally hate (just like the pig in Peacemaker Kurogane).

Rei's not cool btw, unless you're a perverted control freak.

Wow, I totally agree on both points. We must have been twins in a former life or something.

I don't know about PenPen being a gift from Kaji, but...

Originally PenPen was Misato's pet, but in the end even he turns away from her. At first Misato is very popular, with only the ocassional jealousy of Asuka, then: she loses Asuka, who becomes more enclosed after Shinji beats her Sync Ratio. Then Ritsuko, whom she blames for not giving a damn about Shinji and having no idea how to save him ("Take responsibility for what you did"). Her friendship doesn't end, but she certaintly seems to colden somewhat. Then Kaji dies... and then, finally, Shinji refuses her support after Rei sacrifices herself and dies (Angel of Womb?). Her argument with Ritsuko was started in part because she was worried and cared for Shinji, so him turning away from her was a strong blow, especially after Kaji. Finally, right after that, she asks PenPen to come over, and he just turns away. Even her pet, who as some of you know, are the most loyal to us, abandons her. "You're right - anything's better than being alone" (as she sums it up).

This is just a cursory glance (as I see it). As a lot of things, these relationships give us a better insight into her personality, and the personality of others...

P.S. Pardon for not only posting, but also posting such a clumsy message - Edited it.

I enjoy the penguin. Only because it is random, after all whats life/anime without a bit of comedy?

shinji is my fav. person he kicks angels ass

penpen is wired

theres an edit button so you don't have to double post:lol:

oh yeah, the noob takes the moral highground...:P

shinji is my fav. person he kicks angels ass

Not really, Eva 01 does all the work for him. Shinji himself is a wuss.

Angelic is right, all that whining and giver up attitude, I think it's a wonder that he survived childhood.

Must've been the hedgehog dilemma or something.... It's just the fact that the Superego, and the Id never agreed on anything (using referencial terms to the characters to illustrate my point), more-so they couldn't. The more I look at this, the more I think the three should be considered as a group rather than seperate individuals.

PenPen's sole purpose was to add minutes to certain episodes. When they had nothing good to write, or the characters were at a stand point, they simply jumped to a scene with PenPen to fill time. Other than that he was just used for publicity. At least, that is my view on PenPen, though he is my favorite useless character out there ^.^

My favorite character would have to be Kaji >.>

My favorite character would have to be Kaji >.>The actual plot revolved around his watermelons.

subliminal messages anyone?

oh well, i still stand by Asuka, and i wthink all of you shinji haters out there need to open your eyes, what would you have turned out like if your father abandoned you, your mothers dead, and no one accepts you for who you are, your love/lust for a girl is completely ignored, and you have convinced yourself its your fault. on top of that your put into a giant beast capable of destroying everything with your mothers soul trapped in it... o youd be real brave right? wrong, give him a break, he and asuka had the worst issues of all the characters and you know what, i think he should have taken unit one and poped gendos head off, not that i hate gendo, he just scares me, its the obbsession with rei thing

I don't care what his motives are, Shinji's a wuss and he annoys me.

EVA really just pissed me off but yet it is one of my fav. I wish i was there to knock the hell out of Shinji at least twice and Shinji is bi i think...jeez i think he has about half the medical field applying to him. If he had a friend that didnt betray him and someone killed Gendo all this drama could have been sloved. No crazy ending...that would had been great.

THe beginning of EoE in that room with Asuka. Totally destroyed any respect I had for Shinji if any. The new Gainex team were pretty warped!

The point of Shinji is that a hero isn't always great and valiant.

(and by the way the comment about "control freaks" was a little not to my liking! Rei was a caring personality in consideration of her circumstances and that makes her a wonderful character!)

Rei is a puppet who in the end breaks some strings and gets loose from her puppeteer a bit. That's all. She ain't that great.

Someone just has to prove his point about a personal problem with Evangelion. You got the point through a long bit ago, and should have stoped it with this thread at this


All Eva characters suck, except for Shinji's mum and she doesn't get much screentime. Shame <_<

post. Heh, I dont care if you get mad at me for speaking my mind, I just think you need to shut your trap about your problems with Evangelion.

~

My favorite character in Eva is none. Never really felt anything twords the show, good or bad. I thought the movie was a bit sad how the Evas just came back and tore Asuka apart though. Really got me depressed how it could be so heartless.

You got sad about Asuka getting killed? What about everyone else in that NERV base? Did you ever stop to think of them?

Well, umm.

We didn't get to know much about them personally.

post. Heh, I dont care if you get mad at me for speaking my mind, I just think you need to shut your trap about your problems with Evangelion.

So you're allowed to speak your mind and I'm not? I don't like Evangelion but I don't think it's shit (used to think that, but I have to admit the show did have its good points). If you're allowed to say stuff like that then I am too:

RD, you should shut your yap in general, in total and in all topics. You're a stupid fool who thinks he knows everything about me and thinks he knows everything about computergames and wotsnot. Surprise: you don't. You know shit. You're an annoying little fool who thinks he's one of the best people around but is wrong 9 out of 10 times. Stop trying altogether. You're fucking annoying.

... See EVA brings out the wrost in everyone. Did Shinji retardedness(umm is that a word) teach us something? Nevermind i just regain my mind HELL NO!!!

... see, EVA brings out the worst in everyone.The real Human Instrumentality Project in action.

You got sad about Asuka getting killed? What about everyone else in that NERV base? Did you ever stop to think of them?

It was the way she died. It was just how the Evas had a comical smile and had no personality that scared me, and then all the series how she was allways hiding her emotions and then she just dies like that..:cry:

It was the way she died. It was just how the Evas had a comical smile and had no personality that scared me, and then all the series how she was allways hiding her emotions and then she just dies like that..

I know, that part was probably the creepiest scene in any anime I've ever seen. The way the evangelions revived and smiled with relish even as their brains oozed out of the shattered skulls and then gobbled Eva 02 like vultures was just so creepy.

She cant be missed if she comes back to life at the end so why be sad? But I really dont care about EVA anymore,its to retarded and if your that crazy to make something like EVA so depressing...I dont know want to say about it. Also the thing thats gets me is there are people in the world that can relate to EVA so people take this on a personal level. I would never NEVER relate to someone wacking off over someone. Just my opinion.

It was the way she died. It was just how the Evas had a comical smile and had no personality that scared me, and then all the series how she was allways hiding her emotions and then she just dies like that..:cry:
And what about that poor guy who was on his knees pleading? Did you say "Oh that's okay because he wasn't killed by some inhuman monstrosity? Or that soldier who whats her name killed by blowing his jaw off? Don't you think that's a little harsh? She didn't even show any remorse, you monster Radical Dreamer, you seem to care so much about one single person who knew the risks of taking on alien superbeings and yet you seem to not mind other people who never expected to be in combat, who then were killed.

HAHA! I'm was just watching NGE episode 15 (I think) on Adult Swim. Misato and Kahji were having a talk about Misato's decisions in life. This is the episode of the anniversary of Shinji's mother's death. I don't remember the exact lines, but this is close:

Misato: I never should have joined NERV like my father.
Kahji: That was your decision alone.
Misato: Don't *BEEEEEEEEP*

LOL That was probably the longest censor of a word I've ever heard. I had to pull out my NGE DVDs to hear what she actually said. The word was "Bull****" I cracked up after finding that out.

I know, I thought that was pretty funny myself.

I can't believe they actually censored NGE... So pointless.... Sure, They show a bloodcovered ape in one scene, and there's quite a bit of swearing, but still... Nothing worthy of censorship.

It's still on a children's network. They have to or else they'd probably get sued. Just give it a few more years and there will be less censorship of words on television. Only stations like Cartoon Network, Nickelodeon, and Disney would still have to censor a few things because they are networks for all ages.

Yes, but really, how many children stay up to midnight watching TV, anyway? The warning signs and censorship always struck me as rather silly given that there simply aren't any children up that late. What's the point of calling it Adult Swim if it's censored for people who aren't adults?

Heh, I watched Toonami's midnight run way back then...

Anyway, I think we're going a bit off-topic.

You know, I just realized I never watched Evangelion subbed. I didn't mind the dub. I guess I'll watch it again some time in the future in Japanese.

hmm for a thread called "fun with evangelion" it really wasnt fun for some people.....
o well, its their problem

and censoring adult swim was just wrong. but i cant afford buying my own anime, so i must live through it

Hey, has anybody read the manga for it. Neon Genisis Evangelion~Angelic Days. I have and I really like it. I'm currently on vol.2.

Only read the bit that was in newtype of angelic days so far, have read all 9 of the proper (you know what I mean) manga & that looks like we're gonna get a third ending so the 'fun' will continue

That is the manga to where everything bad basically never happened right. The third impact and such. In that one, they are just normal high school students, so it's more of a high school melodrama than anything else?

Yeah, thats basically what it is. But im sorta picky of what manga I choose to read. And well the show was cool so I thought of getting the manga. And ive liked it so far. Yeah this manga is of stuff that did not happen in the show.

Confirmed: "Evangelion Shin Gekijou Ban" Details
Apparent scans from the October, 2006 issue of the Japanese edition of Newtype Magazine (not officially due out on shelves until this wekeend) have appeared online, backing up almost word for word the information reported below. Images Copyright (c) Kadokawashoten 2006 / (c) GAINAX - Khara / Project Eva

The title for the new film series is "Evangelion Shin Gekijou Ban", it will consist of 4 parts (First volume, Second part, Latter part and Final story) with the first part arriving in Japanese theaters in early summer, 2007. Staff include General Supervisor: Hideaki Anno, Director: Tsurumaki Kazuya , Character Design: Yoshiyuki Sadamoto, Mecha Design: Ikuto Yamashita, Animation Production: Khara (Color) Studio. The scenario of the 1st part will be written by Hideaki Anno with storyboard by Shinji Higuchi. Key points of an interview in the magazine with Toshimichi Ohtsuki of King Records have also been circulating. According to that information:
The content is quite different though the time base of the story is the same as the original TV series.
It will be a remake, however, it is not a re-creation but a "new work".
The approach will be different than what Tomino-san did with the Gundam Z New Translation films, there will apparantly be a large amount of new material.
Even if the TV series has not be seen, the viewer will be able to enjoy it. Though the content becomes easy, it is not redundant to those already familiar with the series.
The technique that purposely scatters difficult words and phrases will not be used any longer.
As an antithesis to current animation industry segments, it is an attitude on the production side to pull the act in the age that started from Eva.

~Anime News Service

Fanboys, Girls: have fun.

ZOMG

*EVAGASM*

WEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Tha's great news. I hope we see a change in Shinji's personality. I pity him being bullied.
Possibly a romance development are what the porducers are planning???

Possibly :Shinji: fapping to an injured :asuka:?

Woohoo, yeah. *wonders when they are coming into America* Probably at the rate they usually come, Id estimate around 2012-20??. Once again more great information comes up but it hasn't even been shown in Japan yet. So yeah we may never get to see it.

EDITING!

PenPen was the most horrible random thing in the whole series

Well, he's a LOLicon in the series, the only one, really... (if Asuka doesn't count.)

PenPen was the most horrible random thing in the whole series

Yeah, I never liked him much, either.

And another update...

"While the overall project is being called "Evangelion Shin Gekijou Ban" as mentioned in Newtype, the individual films are being titled "REBUILD OF EVANGELION". The First Volume, REBUILD OF EVANGELION:01 is due out in early summer 2007 it will have an estimated running time of 90 minutes. The Second Part, REBUILD OF EVANGELION:02 is expected in January 2008, also with a running time of 90 minutes. The Latter Part + Last Program of the series, REBUILD OF EVANGELION:03-04 are expected in early summer (possibly June) of 2008, they will have an estimated length of 45 minutes each. Additionally, ANS has learned the 3rd part (Latter Part) (which corresponds to the events of the movies and episodes 25 and 26 of the TV series) and the 4th "Last Program" will be mostly new stories and material. Parts 1-3 will use some key animation sequences from the original TV series, with new backgrounds (settings) and music. Shinji Higuchi is confirmed on the project and has already completed a new story board for the 1st film. A good deal of 3DCG animation will be implemented. The total economic effect of the 4 new Evangelion films is estimated at around 100 billion Yen or more. Director Hideaki Anno has chosen this point in time specifically to produce the new Eva, waiting until the hype of the previous works to cooled down."

If you ask me, the guy just wants more money rather than waiting for the hype to die down.

Thanks M, for the updates.

Rebuild of Evangelion, something that i have been waiting for for a long time. Hopefully they will do a good job. This time let them end it too.... I dont want this to be an anime that all its good at is milking people for more cash.

Hmm, so i just finished episode 26 but there's still a few things im confused on. Like I've read on the internet about what the Eva's really are, what Rei really is, what the Human instrumentality project is, but I don't completely remember all that being answered. Did I miss all that or do I need to watch EoE to get those answers?

and if that thing wasn't really adam all along, then where is adam? and what is the point of lilith being there and the series making you think it was adam?

EoE does a better job explaining things (a lot), but there are still a lot of unanswered questions. People tend to fill in the blanks on the story by using Evangelion's Christian Mythology themes and a little reasoning to explain the unexplainable.

Sadly, there is no exact answer to your spoiled question.

In answer to your question:

Wasn't Adam grafted into Gendo's hand?

In answer to your question:

Wasn't Adam grafted into Gendo's hand?

is that from the TV episodes or EoE?

EoE.

no, at the end of the episode where they finish getting asuka from the germans it shows it.

My favorite character in the anime was Kaworu. In the movie, however, i loved the EVA series because of their wings and spears.

i like it because it just violent.. to think mecha sheds blood.. hahaha..

ooh, new eva :o Gainax's milk cow still hasn't dried out yet?


Possibly :Shinji: fapping to an injured :asuka:?

http://content.imagesocket.com/images/emot_flashfapee6.gif Best part of the whole thing!

ooh, new eva Gainax's milk cow still hasn't dried out yet?

Yeah, really. I think it's time to give this cow a break. Eh, that's modern capitalism for you.

Gainax should just die for being the most lazy, most oversexed, most annoying and least creative Anime studio of the last 10 years <_<

edit: kind of like Square Enix :sorc:

whoa there! Let's not forget that this is the studio that in the last 10 years brought us Evangelion and FLCL

Bastards just couldn't get their act together after that <_<

Focus, Gainax, focus...

Rule of Ganix: Okay beginnings, mindfuck endings. That is, if there even is an ending...

whoa there! Let's not forget that this is the studio that in the last 10 years brought us Evangelion and FLCL

Bastards just couldn't get their act together after that <_<

Making Evangelion (and re-releasing it every year) doesn't make them great though =/ Evangelion is an okay anime, but nothing more than that. I had this argument with some people last weekend, and they instantly came with "HA! It's too deep for you isn't it?" No, it's too shallow. Using religion just for the sake of making it cool? (Gainax confirmed that). No really, that has nothing to do with the deepness of the series. Eva's not deep, it's vague. A lot of people don't seem to get it because there is little to get, and because they don't want to seem stupid they say it's very deep and because of that hard to understand. It's an okay series, but not as great as people claim it is. And definitely not something that should be re-released every year. On the other hand, Gainax is very good at draining money out of their not so smart supporters. I don't think you should treat them as some great company because of that.

Gainax: Going over the budget since 1987.

Gainax: Using religion to make everything cooler since 1987.

Yeah, they really didn't do a good job with their use of Christian/Jewish symbolism (can't they tell the two apart?) and their reason for it really cheapens things.

I'm talking about making it; not the continuous milking.

You're paying attention to the religion, and I pay attention to the character development. Regardless of whether you think it's shallow or not, you can't deny that it did have a huge influence on anime in general.

Anyways, Eva arguments are just as bad as the Religion thread =/

I mean, for one, it wasn't only Christian and Jewish... it was also Egyptian and Muslim. And using it to make money is so cheap: there are pleanty of noble companies that do things not to make money.

Nobody liked continuous milking of a product (except fanboys but they can't think properly anyway).

Character development in eva? Yeah, I guess it had some but not more than your average anime. In fact, take anime like Kimi ga Nozomu Eien, where some real character development is going on, instead of Eva, where Asuka starts of bitchy but actually it's to hide that she's scared of almost everything since her mum killed herself and she feels she has to proof herself all the time, or Shinji who goes from a wimp to... a wimp, seriously. Or Mistato, who turns out not to be just a slut who drinks beer all day but a slut who drinks beer all day to not think of her dad-day who died during angel no. 1's attack. Or Ritsuko or whatsherface who's a slut like her mum (hey, they're all sluts, really!) or Kaji, who turns out to be a bit less of a womaniser as he seems at first and less of a paedophile too!

Now I'm sure you're gonna say I must have missed the important parts about their characters and that I only mentioned shallow things, but hey, the characters are shallow. Not as shallow as the characters in let's say Excel Saga or Gokudo, but even a series like Karekano, which is an older gainax series, showed more character development. But that was based on a manga, where Evangelion was based on something written by a director who had a nervous breakdown at the time. Great source for an anime =P And another thing, am I the only one who finds pretty much all the angels überlame? I mean, Furby looks scarier than a big flying cube of glass with a drilling dick coming out of it. Or a big, spidery thingy that seems to have been stolen from some B-sci-fi movie. It's not hard to call them original, because no one else would want to come up with those designs, but really, where's the coolness? Speaking of which, yay! happy coloured eva's. Makes a lot of sense, you build a battle robot and make it bright purple, or bright red. Seriously.

It was a different take on Mech anime. Macross (sp.?) was the first to take the pilots out of the robots, and question the war around them. Evangelion took the pilots in another direction, where they questioned themselves and their reasons. It was an advance for anime anyway you look at it.

"Even a series"? His and Her Circumstances is a classic. It's known for the character development.

Sigh. Anyways, pointless ^_^

I just wonder, was it intended to be serious from the start or not. I mean, they could have continued in the first 12 episodes style just fine. She did dump him halfway thru the series right? Could explain "teh kiddy colors".

It's not an anime that you watch for the mech battles, hoping they'll be cool. I watch it for the pilots

Fanboy or not, I can't help but feel that NGE began to rot halfway through the series. =/

Also, would NGE be better if . . .

11-16-06 (9:42AM EST)—- Latest Rebuild Of Evangelion Details

The latest issue of the Japanese edition of Newtype Magazine includes many new details on Gainax’s upcoming Rebuild Of Evangelion movies:
No longer constrained by technological limitation of 12 years ago, Director Hideaki Anno is said to be happy that he can finally recreate Eva “as he wanted it to be” in the beginning.
Production planning on the “first part” movie is now complete and now being passed off to the drawing phase.
Anno is now working on the script for the second movie.
The film project will retain many members of the TV series, allowing for the full chemistry that created Eva to work again.
The first movie will occur around the time of the events of the episode 5-6 2 part story arch of the TV series with the climax being Operation Yashima involving Shinji’s use of the positron sniper rifle. Anno says that because of technical limitations it didn’t come out entirely as he planned the first time around and he wants to do his concept of the story right this time. Shinji Higuchi (director: Sinking Of Japan) will collaborate on the Yashima segments.
New characters will begin to appear as of the second movie.
Uniform designs will be the same as the “Kou Gekijouban” works. The Nerv and Seele logos will be changed to reflect a symbolism surrounding the garden of eden story and the tree / fruit of forbidden knowledge. The NERV logo will be changed to show a fruit with a chunk bitten out of it, the new SEELE logo will reflect the image of a fruit with a serpent (Satan) coiled around it.

The NERV logo will be changed to show a fruit with a chunk bitten out of it, the new SEELE logo will reflect the image of a fruit with a serpent (Satan) coiled around it.Now thats just gonna look weird, I rather doubt anyone was too concerned by the logo's before but we are used to them, judgement shall be reserved untill they are seen of course but its sounds odd.

No longer constrained by technological limitation of 12 years ago, Director Hideaki Anno is said to be happy that he can finally recreate Eva “as he wanted it to be” in the beginning."Technological limitation" my ass, what Anno needs is an INFINITE BUDGET.

who are you similar to? (http://www.geocities.com/xenobiadespana/evaquiz.html)

"Technological limitation" my ass, what Anno needs is an INFINITE BUDGET.

And a life, and no nervous breakdowns.

Well the whole thing turned into a http://content.imagesocket.com/images/emot_flashfapee6.gif fest at the end.

Maybe, just maybe... there won't be any of that in this one!

...nah.

Actually Eva wasn't fappable at all since they were all minors XD

Lol, fappable XD

Anyway, since when has that stopped the average fanboy?

That IS true :ph34r:

Lol, fappable XD

Anyway, since when has that stopped the average fanboy?
Especially if they latch onto Japans age instead of their own countries, though theres always Misato & Maya to keep things legit, wait... why am bothering to say that anyway?

My Favorite charactor is Kaoru because he is the only charactor in the show whom has direct definition, and understands his point in the plot.

Fanboy or not, I can't help but feel that NGE began to rot halfway through the series. =/


Woah now, NGE didn't rot halfway through the series. Maburaho rotted halfway through the series. NGE just took a different outlook halfway through than most anime's take. If the series just continued all the way through like the first 12 episodes, it would be just another gundam.

Actually Maburaho became better halfway through, while Eva plummethed down into the depths of randomness, pervertedness and bullshit.

If by better you mean destroying the entire plot and continueing on with absolute crap =\ The whole first half was pretty interesting

"Oh my, are they going to find a way to get his magic back? Oooh, nice, get to know all the characters better. He died and is a ghost... What the fuck? What is the point now? Oh great, he is pulling a shinji on us... Must please all three girls... I will save you... End. Wait... so did it work or not? wtf, your just gonna leave us hanging?"

what happned at the end?i got confused.

The makers decided to try and be cutting edge and ruined the series.

(just my opinion)

Has anyone heard about when rebuilding eva is coming out? I heard that it was in september of this year. Has anyone read all of Angelic days?

Ive read all volumes of Angelic days. There were only 6 volumes though, I sure wish there were more! Oh well.

I think the movie is coming out this month in Japan, but Im not sure. If you want to get more info pick up this months Newtype magazine.

it already came out in Japan!:cry:
