omedetou, you finally got it

>I have an opinion

How cool OP this was totally worth a thread

are you fuck you

It's funny that every time people say something like that, they're posting Rebuild.

Yes, we can stop pretending that it is not that good.

Because they were all too impatient to actually watch the real Eva.

Define "that good". For anime, or for televised entertainment in general, it's pretty good. Of course, delusional faggots who think it's mankinds greatest achievement that should be taught in schools are completely bokners, so in that sense, it's not that good.

Don't ever post here again, cunt

The fact that you made this thread proves that it actually is that good.

Only if you stop pretending you have more than two brain cells to rub against each other.

Hey guys can you help me find a vid with the guitar music from the congratulations scene?
Some user posted a youtube link but I forgot to bookmark it.

Eva took Waifufaggotery and fujoshittery to a new level.

You see eva may not me that good but it's way better than most of the seasonal garbage we get now

Evangelion is over 50 years old now

It's called "Good, or Don't be."

Thank you very much. I am much grateful to you.

Thank you for stating the obvious

So is my age

>pathetic loser mc
Of course it's glorified here in Sup Forums

We have is just so many new kids keep discovering it and start freaking out about it

This. Evangelion was one of the most important series of the 90's. But is not the second coming of Christ as some fans who got their minds fucked thought.

Thats a valid point, how many threads are there about Utena , Cowboy Bebop or Gundam Wing, or trigun?

The ASuka Hikari hybrid is so cute. Do you think that she also had some of the gentler elements of Hikari in her first original design?

Is a pity that her character keep getting divided into peices

Im wondering if RvA was the first waifu fight in anime history.

Prototype Asuka apparently hated men

No, they have existed since long before Evangelion was even conceived.

Magica Madoka was unironically better than Evangelion

Wow that sameface artstyle really makes the good character designs look like trash. CONGRATULATIONS

Her three characteristics were hating boys, liking videogames, and wanting to be like Kaji. The descriptions for her episodes still sound exactly like the final product up until she's defeated while protecting Shinji in 19.

1: evangelion is the best selling single series of all time
2: it actually did completely change everything about the medium. from 85-97, OVAs dominated the industry, and television series were almost entirely aimed at children. after evangelion, television series exploded in production and lots of adult-oriented titles started popping up.
3. there are multiple threads about it daily twenty years later for a reason
4. Sup Forums almost certainly wouldn't exist if evangelion didn't exist.

madoka's writing is JK rowling, re:zero-tier. it's edgy shounenshit and a perversion of the mahou shoujo genre. people freak out about it because it's the first decent series they watch when they are eighteen before they have the attention span to sit through something longer than twelve episodes, and of course that katana-wielding fedora edge. it gets daily threads because of avatarfags that don't get banned for some reason.

It's a 7/10.
It's basically the FFVII of anime. Overrated by casuals who haven't really been exposed to the medium so other casuals believe their word and spread the misinformation. Ironically the people obsessing over it are doing exactly what Anno told them not to through the show.
So it goes

>1: evangelion is the best selling single series of all time
No it's not.
>2: it actually did completely change everything about the medium. from 85-97, OVAs dominated the industry, and television series were almost entirely aimed at children. after evangelion, television series exploded in production and lots of adult-oriented titles started popping up.
This is so wrong. TV series still dominated the industry and they were always generally aimed at children. You're also wrong that there wasn't already a trend of action OVAs moving to a TV format before EVA
>3. there are multiple threads about it daily twenty years later for a reason
Newfags keep finding it
>4. Sup Forums almost certainly wouldn't exist if evangelion didn't exist.
Also bullshit
Why do evafags make up everything they say?

wew, there's a prototype synopsis floating around? what differences are there?

evangelion is the best anime of all time.

>Why do evafags make up everything they say?
This is what happens when you pretend a show is "2deep4u". The whole thing is just about depression which is easy to see if you've ever had depression.

Nice memes Evababby. I guess series like Rose of Versailles and Ashita no Joe were aimed at children?

Evangelion is too deep for you. None of you truly understand what this anime is about. Some say its a deconstruction of mecha, or say it's about depression. Both are wrong. Evangelion is a deconstruction of anime itself. Anno did something truly genius with this show nobody has ever done in any other anime, perhaps any other medium in general. He ripped off a bunch of truly great anime, but then made it as bad as possible (Gunbuster was the prototype for this). One element of this is present in the characters Rei & Asuka. Anno took the best girl Rei Asuka from another anime and split her between too giant piles of shit known as Rei Ayanami and Asuka Souryu. Evangelion is truly deconstruction in its purest form.

>No it's not.
it literally is the best selling "single" series. gundam outsells it, but as multiple series. you are uneducated and pretending to know what you are talking about.
>This is so wrong. TV series still dominated the industry and they were always generally aimed at children. You're also wrong that there wasn't already a trend of action OVAs moving to a TV format before EVA
look up OVAs and television series before and after 1997. there were more OVA releases than television releases for a decade, you're just lying. there was a dramatic shift with evangelion at the center. it's as simple as looking up a list of releases from the decade before and after. you are uneducated and completely pretending to know what you are talking about.
>Also bullshit
moot literally made this place because he wanted to talk about anime without being judged. his favorite anime was evangelion, asuka was his waifu. there is a very real chance we wouldn't have Sup Forums without evangelion. you are uneducated and completely pretending to know what you are talking about.

>almost entirely = entirely
reading comprehension of an insect.

It's summer already and the contrarians are out in force.

Doesn't that very website have a disclaimer citing its numbers of older series like Evangelion and Gundam aren't even close to being accurate?

>his favorite anime was evangelion
His favorite Anime was planetes, you newfag retard.

>they think evangelion wasn't aimed at kids
Literal retards.
>And to all the children, congratulations

no? regardless, where's your superior source?

planetes aired after Sup Forums was created you absolute retard

it was literally defunded for being too unfriendly for children in a children's time slot.

Just because the producers didn't see it that way doesn't mean it wasn't very much a coming of age show aimed at young children.

Evangelion has theme park rides at Universal, a merch crossover deal with Sanrio, and a huge children demographic.
Even Anno went to go talk about it to children in that one video.

>my opinion outweighs the opinions of who produced it
desperate.

What are you on about? You realize producers has multiple contexts. The producers who funded it didn't know shit about it. Anno did and it was for children.

increasingly desperate. anno also talks about it tp otaku, so if that's a valid argument it's self-defeating.

Evangelion is a children's show. Get over it dude.

it was de-funded because it wasn't child-friendly in a child's time slot. you presented your own opinion as though it outweighed this fact. what is unclear here?

because you say so? literally look up a list of series releases before and after evangelion. you will see a dramatic shift in intended auidence.

What's not clear is how dumb posters like you have to be to argue in circles like that and not follow a discussion. Talking to people who seriously don't think EVA is coming of age

>nothing but ad hominem
how about an argument?

Because I know so.
It aired in a children's time slot and the Manga was serialized in a children's magazine.
It has a huge children's demographic to this day, Sanrio merch collabs and rides at the same place with fucking Disney rides.

it got cancelled for being non-child friendly, this is well-known.
>It has a huge children's demographic to this day
it's also had a huge adult's demographic to this day. self-defeating logic.

Evangelion literally has a children and baby's clothes line you fucking idiot.

You're right Evangelion did change anime; for the worse. Thanks Anno.

It never got cancelled.

It's the Star Wars of Japan, mainstream and normalfag enough for all demographics to enjoy it. But it is still entirely child-friendly.

Yeah, it's sub par, but it's babies first DUDE DEEP LMAO anime and these faggots love the imagery and """""character development""""" It's boring as hell and is a shit mecha compared to others of it's time and before it

>eggs

The thing with stupidass people is they never stop and think from time to time to ponder maybe I am wrong about this, let me look into it and re-evaluate it.
