Wow. Bravo anno. So deep

Wow. Bravo anno. So deep.

A true masterpiece of animation

ok brainlet

please tell me the philosophy behind a 57 second still shot with no movement

no

I wasted years of my life trying to understand Eva. In the end I realized that it's all pointless.

its still my favorite anime but people should shut up with there damn headcanons already. I've seen people cite the trading cards as evidence of some grandiose theme.
It's just good, not some huge statement on the human condition and psychology

>taking years to understand people want to feel loved and not alone
wew lad

this, the theme is be good to yourself

Christianity is rather uncommon in Japan.

To us, the random Christian imagery and angel names are nothing more than nonsensical and poorly used. To them, it was something new.

That along with the good animation for its time, is the reason why it was popular. However popularity is not always synonymous with quality, as is the case here.

Evengelion is a pretentious series with no quality story wise. It's a pile of shit.

its not a pile of shit, its good, but its not a masterpiece

Calling evil robots names of angels from in the Bible, including the scene of a 14 year old masterbating over an unconscious girl and having vague endings isn’t “classic” to me. The Human Instrumentality Project is a bunch of artsy-fartsy bullshit that makes no sense to anyone not fond of thinking in the extreme abstract. Anno urges us to find our own answers because he himself has no answers for the very thing he created. Viewers on the other hand see NGE, not understand half of it, and thus equate this misunderstanding and vagueness to a great work of art. I appreciate the fact that the characters were complex, but who really cares? Is this a soap opera? Is it really a selling point to say that they’ve taken an extraordinary amount of screen time delving deep into the psyche of….animated characters? The protaganist, Shinji Ikari, is as annoying as they come. In the final episode/movie, he behaves like such an absolute pussy that it was painful to continue watching.

tl;dr lol

To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand the elevator scene.

I stated this days earlier but it is amazing how many pivotal scenes in Evangelion occur in or are involving elevators yet there is only one scene which is known as the elevator scene.

>Is it really a selling point to say that they’ve taken an extraordinary amount of screen time delving deep into the psyche of….animated characters?

Could you be more of a brainlet

>you will never have as much master degrees as the average intellectual redditor.

Is this a past/a/?

name one, i don't remember any that many elevator scenes.

see it and give his/her own answer. In other words, we’re offering viewers to think by themselves, so that each person can imagine his/her own world. We will never offer the answers, even in the theatrical version. As for any Evangelion viewers, they may expect us to provide the ‘all-about Eva’ manuals, but there is no such thing. Don’t expect to get answers by someone. Don’t expect to be catered to all the time. We all have to find our own answers.”
– Hideaki Anno, Director of Neon Genesis Evangelion

Not that I needed to find quotes from the people that actually thought up NGE to support my opinion, but wow. “Find our own answers”? Sounds like lecturers who come to class, don’t do anything remotely relevant to the actual course they’re lecturing for, and then when students complain they say that they’re not into spoonfeeding.

no

Who cares, Asuka looks beautiful there.

Every time someone complains of CGI, I show them this.

>giving me time to fap to Asuka
>a bad thing
Fuck off OP. Anno knew what he was doing.

Wow. Bravo anno. So deep.

Stillness can be used to good effect. Hammers home the awkwardness of it all.

But you knew this already.

Tension building. Kids those days are too speed.

>*tips*

Can someone post the full 80 second gif of unit 01 holding Kaworu?
Also I need that fanart of Kaworu changing a lightbulb cause apparently fireden doesn't go that far back.

>falling for the meme

um yes not pretention

Like a person never telling you anything sincere about themselves, and then immediately accusing you of only seeing them as a sex object.
I understand now. Anno is a hard tsundere.

i thought my computer froze when i watched this scene, fuck that make it 20 seconds NOT FUCKING 50+ SECONDS

>doesn't like the vastly superior kuudere
pleb

I did too, until the memesub release I was watching gave me a tl note telling me it was actually supposed to be a minute long still

It's just like modern art and its brain dead followers.

its not bad, but its not a literal masterpiece. still my fav though

>2017
>daily eva threads
what a fucking milestone

There are daily pedo threads too doesn't mean it's a good thing.

>Asuka in the light
>Rei in the shadows
>this is the last time they spoke as friends

woah....

>woah its like i i think about it for ten minutes straight it suddenly becomes deep

...

>Rei
>A stooge
delet?

You're right, stooges had personalities.

Rei is as charming as a piece of cardboard.

>describe Eva in one picture
I mean, the only thing that's missing is Kaji and Misato making out drunk in the corner.

DELET!!!

thought the same thing with this scene.

>even when asuka is 4 she wears hair ribbons that resemble her nerve clips

>even in the alternate universe where there are no evangelions Asuka STILL wears her nerve clips

WHAT THE FUCK

>Asuka still a bitch in alternate universe

>those chicken legs

I want to hug and kiss and hold hands with Rei

>tfw never get to expose myself to Asuka on a daily basis when she yells at me to wake up.

same, Rei is a cute

the reboot should have just been more of this. i unironically enjoy it

The elevator one wasn't that special, but the music completely makes this scene.

>pedo
Dumb normalfag.

Of course you would enjoy the original Evangelion timeline!

Dumb disappointment-to-his-family-and danger-to-kids-pedo fag.

>i unironically enjoy it
That's cool user, current society says it's OK to be a fudgepacking faggot

Miyamura was top tier in that scene, it's about as cute as Asuka's voice gets

>Koto baaaaa?
>Mou, okinasai YO!

Do you broadcast your masturbation habits to your family? And the only kids in danger are the 2D ones which aren't fucking disgusting and annoying, with their ever tight cunnies and all.

Kill yourself out of Sup Forums normalfaggot.

Holy shit the pedo is triggered.

Howling like a fake orgasm in a porno does not make a voice actress 'cute', user.

I like this part because on its own it's so benign but its context makes it eerie and uncomfortable

What do you mean? It was purely fun for me.

t. brainlet

I see nothing worthy of being triggered in your post. Post 2D grills to trigger a erection, will ya

>people have been arguing about this for more than 20 years

Just rewatched the second half of ep24 because of this thread. What's the name of the song that plays once Kowaru takes control of unit2? I remember playing it in middle school band.

It's unique and has us still talking about it 20 years later. You cant deny it wasn't effective at the least.

Because it feels deliberately fake and unreal (they're acting like cardboard cutout archetypes from a proto-sol). the viewer's supposed to be like "????"
It's a funny scene in retrospect but it's weird in a first time viewing

The elevator scene is tool real. Elevators are fucking awkward.

The other still shot scene is indefensible though

>Because it feels deliberately fake and unreal (they're acting like cardboard cutout archetypes from a proto-sol). the viewer's supposed to be like "????"

It's simply supposed to be a world where supernatural things don't exist, to show the effect it would have in the characters

Is this a SAO reference?

doesn't mean its a good scene. its just avant garde shit. still a good anime

Why is Asuka drawn so badly in half of Rebuild?

Because there's telltale signs that an individual has undergone HRT and reassignment surgery, user.

Some of it looks deviantart-tier

test

Because rebuild looks like shit in general. Can you imagine if unit1 was made with CGI in this scene

Fuck Asuka Marry Rei Kill Mari

...

Reminder that Asuka's A-10 nerve clips are actually attached to nerve ending, and as a result they're erogenous zones

the CGI is shit the rest is passable in the rebuilds, some of NGE's animation was meh also

>it's year 2017
>brainlets still think the christian symbols is what supposedly makes it "deep" and try using it as an argument
I would kek at you, but it's getting bothersome, really.

just fucking flick em

2.22 wasn't so bad, but 3.33 hit rock bottom in animation. Just look at this chin.

but they're sensitive
you have to be gentle

They're also attached to Asuka. That's .. kind of a way to ruin your entire life. And probably the ecosystem as well.

A quick shot showing the contents of the purse which belongs to the crazy cat lady, right as Misato sits down between her and Kaji, politely interrupting their conversation.

A ticket for one.
Where did she go?
Why does she have to be alone?

I DO WHAT I WANT

I didn't follow what was happening with her, clearly something important though.

The way she betrayed Gendo was somewhat similar to Rei.

Then I'll beat them with a whip.

alot of the "deep" stuff that went on can be explained with them running low on budget

pls don't lewd the Rei

Anyone would do for you.

In the TV series yes, in EoE 100% of it is purposeful. I didn't understand any of it until many, many watchings, and I'm still uncovering things

most of its not deep, its done to look and be cool
