4chan seems to be operating in a mix of ironic meltdowns and unironic ones, with the ironic ones having a lot of "I... I thought you were kidding" posts.

Of course, the whole thing was amplified by their simultaneous Evangelion and Attack on Titan meltdowns, with Kaguya fans trying to make sure their big news stayed in view despite two long lasting series making shocking decisions. And when a site operates on loud hatred, "If I had to describe the feelin', it was the best!" isn't going to get the job done.

Well, in Attack on Titan

The second to last chapter ended with Mikasa making out with Eren's severed head

which was kind of a big thing, made bigger by context that would take too much time to describe here, but even that looked small in comparison with Evangelion, where

Shinji finally wound up in a serious romantic relationship with one of the other pilots.

Mari.

Asuka, meanwhile, has the kind of relationship with Kensuke where they're comfortable around each other naked, and she gives him nicknames.


It was a meltdown quite literally decades in the making.

God drat, mad respect to the Eva authors, because :drat: I struggle to think of a way to troll the fandom more.

I'll have to actually check all the 4 rebuilds now that it's done.
(it is done, right? There was no surprise cliffhanger leading to a future Rebuild 5 or 3+2 or 4+1 or whatever, right?)

Please stop putting EVA spoilers in this thread. I accidentally spoiled myself because I didn’t know they were EVA spoilers instead of Kaguya spoilers.

At least if you put those up, let me know how I can see the movie too. :filez:

Channers are english speaking Otaku in every sense, often deliberately.

Edit: Don't know how else to phrase this and I do see that spoilers for series was frowned upon so to sum it up I don't take kindly to shippers but find their meltdowns hilarious.

Having a serious Fujiwara chapter feels nice. She's such a good friend, and that was really heartwarming. Great chapter.

I love how Fuji went through that whole backstory just cause she thought she was in trouble and wanted to butter up Kaguya beforehand, as expected of a politician's daughter. :allears: Still, genuinely wholesome and that last page is just great.

Well, we know it won't be Chika's fault.

Kaguya tested all her friends by making sure they could keep a secret back in the day. Chika was one of the few who passed.

tbf, both of them found out because they were, like, paying the minimum amount of attention. I love Chika, but she's ain't Subject F for nothing.

She's like what people think Goro Majima is like. Except with less bloodshed.

This was an extremely sweet chapter and it's nice to be reminded Fujiwara is a good friend and not just a chaos gremlin.
