Strong urge to clap, I KNOW EVA!

Zero Two was the mecha, not the girl.

But is it really just a coincidence?

This show is honest to god garbage.

the whole series looks like another attempt to rip off EVA with very heavy handed references like long unsupported elevators already but insteadof trying to make a tragic drama work like failed crap Raxephon and others tried they want to double down on innuendo and fun stufffrom EVA.

This may work.

Also dont forget that Trigger are the ex gainax crew.

somebody said that 02 can be read as "akuma" (devil) in japanese.
AAAAAAKUMA NO CHIKARA

do you believe everything you read on Sup Forums

02 CAN be read as RAGE (Reiji)

Darling in the franxx is actually an elaborate promo for Eva 3.0+1.0

it can be read as 0 Ni or Oni, which is the red dude you get in SMT

Rei and Shinji ?

D E E P E S T L O R E

02 can be read as slut

02 can be read as Zero Two, because she's the third.

Waifu simulator

Didn't even know that Ji was a reading of 2. That's pretty interesting.

>somebody said that 02 can be read as "akuma" (devil) in japanese.
>AAAAAAKUMA NO CHIKARA
ALL names can be read as an iteration of their numbers

02 = O Ni
56 = Go Ro
15 = Ichi Go
556 = Go Go Ro (Kokoro)

etc etc etc

Probably not.

She is nothing like Asuka. 002 is not a cranky bitch, and she is faithful to Hiro. Never compare 0ni with Eva's worst girl again faggot.

>Strelitzia
>A common name of the genus is bird of paradise flower / plant, because of a resemblance of its flowers to birds-of-paradise.
>The bird of paradise represents faithfulness, love, and thoughtfulness
>The 9th wedding anniversary for a married couple
>Freedom and the ability to travel, due to the flower’s resemblance to birds in flight (note similarities with the bird monologue in episode 1)
>Magnificence, excellence and success
>Joy through challenges and successes alike
>Faithfulness in romantic relationships
>Optimism towards the future

What did he mean by this?

Their personalities were never being compared.

WHAT. NO WAY.

What's wrong with you?

NGE copycat is shit

Take your own life.

The japanese don't read 0 as oh though. Or /o/.

>Eva's worst girl
Now that's going too far.
Asuka is a miracle of the universe.

neither is 5 Ko but is close, that is the point of hte names

But will we get some fabulous synchronization training between 02 and Hiro?

But 0 is either zero or rei in Japanese, nothing like o.

again, it depends on the interpretation they want to give.

5 is Go, but they use it as Ko for Kokoro (556)

so they are using 0 as O cause its close

episode 9 is by far the best NGE episode

It is common in Japanese for compund words to lose/gain voice if it sounds better. Gogoro is hardly pronouncable.

Who cares? Rei was better anyway.

They don't need one. Hiro/Oni dynamic is the exact polar opposite of the Shinji/Asuka one, even though their personalities are somewhat reminiscent of their Eva equivalents (which they really aren't, the Hiro-Shinji comparisons are particularly retarded).

Some of the other pairs appear to be in some dire need of training though. Their parameters are way off synch.

good times

I heard the music in my head while watching this

...

I wonder how Sup Forums would have reacted to Evangelion had it first aired today.

miracle of various mental illnesses.

The only similarity between them that they both pilot a robot.

Also 0ni is already an infinitely better character than that bitch Asuka.

Sup Forums wouldn’t exist if Eva didn’t air untill today.

...

You might be right actually.
Though Moot liked anime beyond Evangelion. But he was no doubt particularly fond of it.

Probably like Franxx or TTGL
>Most people love it
>Retarded waifufags everywhere
>Counter spammers try to create hate threads
>As show grows in popularity so does the hate..

They can now.

Same way it is with Franxx now. They're way more similar than you think.

You have a mental illness

One is a balant copy but with blown out sexual symbolism.

I hope we get a decent amount of fanart with these two.

And yet she's Rei

Are you alright, fag? Asuka is best girl. Ask Anno if you don't believe me.

Both Rei and Asuka were good.

>They're way more similar than you think.
If you mean that Franxx wouldn't exist if Evangelion didn't air first because Franxx is retarded ripoff of eva written by a 12 yo then yes, the two are "similar"

Does the comparison upset you or something?

Asuka sucks. Fuck off.

This. Ironically, Zero Two is more similar to Rei than Asuka as a character. She's that strange, demure and stoic alien girl.

Have you ever watched either shows?

What sounds upset to you in this post ?

Your face when there are people that say that Asuka was completely irrelevant in EoE.

The out of nowhere "retarded ripoff of eva written by a 12 yo" part.

Sorry for hurting you feelings then sweetie, I should have put a trigger warning for mean words

Not that user but: No problem being seen naked, all around weird, "I exist only to die", etc.

That's pretty much everyone who post on

02 is clearly Asuka and Rei combined.

I was thinking that the whole thread, but then if they were combined into one person the waifutards wouldn't have anything to argue about.

OMG SO DEEP

Unit-0 was Rei.
Unit-02 was Asuka.

Zero Two's full code is actually 002. 0+02.
Rei+Asuka!

>Unit-0 was Rei.
Unit-00 you uncultured trash

It's a reference you fucking retard, why do most people who abuse 'deep' meme seem so fucking retarded?

I know, I know.
00 combined with 02 would be 0002 though and that's one digit too many.

And that's fucking terrible.
Mix the two of them and you got a fucking mess devoid of depth or personality who just acts as the plot and fanservice demands it. What else to expect from a show about doggystyle mech piloting ?

Just like Crybaby was actually an elaborate promo for Darling

I just though about it like that not defending the show or anything.
>What else to expect from a show about doggystyle mech piloting ?
Definitely, sexual themes are only good when they are subtle like in Eva, not fucking fullblown humping like in this lewdbaiting shit.

> sexual themes are only good when they are subtle like in Eva
another victory for the master

Why couldn't they just both pilot the mech or something? I get it they were trying to symbolize the mythological bird but it looks so fucking stupid.

They did, and it's even more lewd than in Franxx, I mean they h*ld h*nds

And ignoring the rabid sexual themes, the mechs in this show make Jet alone look good.

>Why couldn't they just both pilot the mech or something?
mental interference. also pilots were extremely rare so waste 2 in 1 eva was, well, a waste

Apart from the name and the colour I don't see any resemblance, in looks, personality, or their respective narrative purpose.

>mental interference. also pilots were extremely rare
Aren't they both present in the mech? I'm talking about Darling fyi

>sexual themes are only good when they are subtle
Why? If it is handled well even unsubtle themes can be good.
And Eva was never really subtle.

DiF YOU NEED both for whatever reason not explained yet, EVa is 1 on 1 with Pilot with the Mecha cause remember EVA's as just restrained sentient beings too, specially Units 01 and 02 which have souls

Have you? Or are you some ESL retard who can't understand a difference in degree?

>If it is handled well even
It's not in Darling, looks like something straight out of ecchi.
>And Eva was never really subtle.
Definitely more subtle than this.

Darling isn't handled well at all.

It's only been two episodes. At least wait and see how they handle it before saying they are doing it badly.
>Definitely more subtle than this.
Right.

Who's the girl on the right?

I've seen her one or two times on Sup Forums, usually accompanied by a shitpost. What makes her so unforgettable? She's just a waifu of the month #42.

>saying trigger warning in 2018
Back to Sup Forums

If you have problems handling sexual themes in fiction, I'd suggest you to keep watching some kid-friendly anime for a while instead. Try again after 10 years.

>using quotes from Anno out of context to suit your agenda even though Asuka was never close to Shinji
>using noncanon cardgame
Not that guy, but this doesn't help your case that Asuka isn't shit.

I seriously couldn't take the show seriously, the characters were so serious but their positions and settings were ridiculous, I went in expecting action but ended up laughing.

Also at least Rei isn't straight up grinding Shinji, that's from EoE whose whole point was strange visuals.

Your mom

>Zero Two was the mecha, not the girl.

The girls in Franxx become the mecha though.

Retard there's a clear difference between sexual themes and straight up doggysex, stop thinking with your dick. It's like that anime where they fight with butts or something.

>Eva was never really subtle.
>Still daily controversies about the characters, the dialogues, the interpretations, the visuals, etc.
then I guess everyone is wrong about it but you senpai. plz teach us.

Franxx is too subtle and meaningful in its treatment of sexual themes, is that what you're trying to say ?

>sexual themes make an anime more mature
It's so overdone in mecha.

She talked shit about Shinji because she actually cared. Which she didn't like.
