Robotnik Nudes posted:It’s one of the best parts of Eva as a series. After so many years of lore theorizing, video game text file analysis and what have you, Evangelion is confusing to Eva fans again. You feel like Shinji. poo poo is hosed up, the Bible aliens are going crazy and everyone says it’s all your fault but you don’t know why. It’s as Evangelion as Evangelion can get. this, imo

chiasaur11 posted:You know, this is bringing up the obvious, but it is important how, in such a Shinji focused series, we get a Mari focused action scene at the start of 2, 3, and 4. On the one hand, I like the symbolism of Mari being the Final Girl, purely because of what she represents for Shinji: a new direction and a new beginning free of the toxic and destructive loop he'd found himself caught in, both of his own and others' making. But on the other hand it's really weird and gross to remember that she's like a 50 year old woman stuck in a 14 year old's body, but I guess that doesn't really matter anymore after Shinji remade the world without Evas, so maybe she's not anymore? nine-gear crow fucked around with this message at 08:07 on Dec 5, 2022 |

I mean, Shinji also gains the memory of all the past versions of the franchise totaling hundreds, maybe thousands of years in Shin, so basically it's all a mess when trying to figure out anything in that department. They're both adults at the end when they head off together, and that's probably as good as you're going to get.

Rebuild Asuka Shikinami being very explicitly a separate entity from series Asuka Sohryu makes me wonder who the Asuka in the ending is meant to be.

Fututeuki strikes me as the ultimate anti-Shinji. Did we do the right thing? How should I know but left unsaid is "at least we did something"

Thrice Ending Asuka is an Asuka without the compulsive need to excel, psychological baggage of momdead, or the sense that her worth is tied to being the wunderkind pilot.

TenementFunster posted:seeing Thrice Upon a Time on the big screen really drove home the cool "subversion of the medium" tricks they pull at the end I can only imagine what it would have been like watching End of Evangelion in a theatre and then getting to the scene where it just shows footage of an empty theatre from the POV of the movie screen so it would look sort of like a mirror image looking back at you, only you're not in the reflection. That would have been such a great head trip to experience during that whole "want to see a world without you in it?" sequence.

TenementFunster posted:i wish they'd stop projecting a 1080p rip onto a big screen for all the fantom events anime showings, but whatever i'll keep drinking that garbage It looked way worse than any fathom events anime thing I've seen in recent years, at a few points I was wondering if my contacts were acting up but no it really was just that fuzzy. No regrets though, even seeing it in a compromised form on the big screen was still very much worth it!

Managed to get to the screening Sunday. Theater was pretty much sold out, and much quieter than most anime movies I've been to. Still an amazing movie, and it was nice to have a no-bullshit screening, without having to spend half an hour on trailers. There was even a short before the movie. Unfortunate thing was the sound got a little crackly for some of the Gendo scenes for some reason, but overall, I had a great time. (Funny thing was, at least one person there had this as his absolute first exposure to Evangelion, beyond the meme of Shinji in the chair. Seemed to have gone over pretty well despite that.)

It's a new separate short being included with the Thrice Upon a Time set called "Evangelion: 3.0 (-46h)" Something 46 hours before the events of 3.0 I guess?

There was a bonus manga during Shins release called Q -120 mins, which was a little thing set 2 hours before Q. This is Q -46 hours, so two days before that, but the material here seems to be covering at least some post-2.0 to very early timeskip stuff including the actual Third Impact and the unseen Eva-02 variant printed on a lantern last summer. The runtime for Shin is unchanged but there might be minor visual/audio/colour grading tweaks, and there's no runtime for this thing, it could be a few minutes to a 20-40 min OVA length thing.

Shiroc posted:It would be interesting to see the missing middle movie but it is kinda fitting to have the audience completely missing these huge events along with Shinji. Story goes Anno doesn't want to do any Eva without Shinji, which is perfectly understood by many. It's the perfect opportunity for a crew without Anno to run a whole series in that gap, but gainax is basically dead isn't it?

As far as I'm aware the rights for evangelion were entirely bought out from gainax's zombified corpse some time before Anno's infamous open letter in 2019 calling them out for how hard they'd gone to poo poo.
