Blockhouse posted:keep in mind Anno is on record as saying the title is entirely because he thought it sounded complicated To go further, Anno was into the name "Alcion" but Sadamoto said that you need hard consonants to sound cool and Evangelion came from that or maybe him.

Does that mean it's pronounced Evan JELL ion I like how I try to pronounce it the other way despite all other "EVANG" words having the J-sounding G.

Shame all who say Evanjellyon since it's literally wrong anyway. Szmitten fucked around with this message at 18:29 on Mar 5, 2021 |

Rebuild is basically just different enough from TV Eva that all the extra-canonical stuff authorized by Gainax over the years can't be reconciled with it, and otherwise it explains nothing. it has anti-lore

Angel rankings go like this: A tier: The big diamond guy the guy with the spaghetti arms the nanocomputer one the one that takes over the evangelion the one in episode 1 the one that falls out of the sky like a bomb the dirac sea one B tier: the big ring one that makes a weird sound when it breaks apart and attacks the angelic one that causes asuka's mental breakdown gaghiel the big sea monster one C tier: the purple one in the episode where shinji's friends get in the entry plug the spider one that spews acid the one that splits in half (though the episode its in is super good) the one in the volcano

This got brought up over in RGD when I mentioned NGE and Tiffany Grant being really really attached to her role as Asuka, but can someone here detail what exactly is up with Amanda Winn Lee being considered "crazy"? I saw she was pretty outspoken about the localization changes Netflix did when they got their hands on the show but a lot of the other stuff that came up in my search was your usual hyperbolic youtube video titles that make me question their validity. What's her deal, exactly?

She's not, from my understanding. Just outspoken about hating conservatives and Vic Mignona. So she's constantly attracting the worst types.

Some people are still salty about some of her suggested dub changes to EoE (squish sounds and HIT EM AGAIN) but she's pretty cool, and incredibly sassy to Vic people that tend to harass her online

Arcsquad12 posted:What people don't like the Smuckers Jam sound effects for people getting pulped by machine guns and slumping along the wall? There's also some hate due to the general looseness of the dubfolk during the director's commentary. "Yeah this scene dragged so I decided Asuka should say "stuff my strawberry schnitzel" here lol!" This scene is especially unique, as Shinji knows it's an empty grave but also the closest he gets to his mothe-- LAWL LOOK THE SHADOW IS A GIANT DIIIIIIIIIICK

I believe it's limited to Shinji's infamous "I'm so hosed up", and Misato's "So loving what if I don't understand?" from EoE. I can't think of any others.

Part of Lee’s reputation also comes from the fact that she’s very much a creature of the 90’s era of anime fandom and particularly con culture, where anime cons were much smaller more intimate affairs where the guests would usually just hang out at the con like everybody else if they weren’t doing a meet &greet or hosting a panel, and Lee in particular was known to be a real force of nature at hotel room parties. Real fun but pissed off the particular kind of nerd who insists that everyone working on the thing they like needs to hold a certain amount of Reverent Deference for it.

if amazon drops 3.0+1.0 on Prime with English subs on March 8th I will personally drive down to Alabama and punch every union organizer I can find in the face I'm kidding. unions are good, gently caress amazon, maybe if NERV had a union they wouldn't have such a dreadful workplace safety record

They're people who literally chose to Get All Offended at what went down with him bc algorithm poisoned dipshit fascist nerd world told them to, yeah. Like I'm sure there's a tiny handful of diehards who were previously aware of his existence and into his stuff, but nobody invested in his defence will ever admit that for most of these freaks it really does begin and end at "well, I saw a video that said the sjws hate this guy for no reason, so he's obviously actually extremely good". Most easily grifted people in the world.

And his stans keep harping on about how they hope that he’ll be able to reprise his roles one day. Even if you could somehow put aside the numerous sex pest accusations, he likely burned every bridge that he had in the industry that was worth a poo poo with his legal shenanigans following his release/firing by Funimation and Rooster Teeth His presence as Rohan in Diamond is Unbreakable is pretty much the only thing that marred what’s otherwise one of the best dubs I’ve seen in a while
