>bad design
Some of the Angels are too goofy but Ramiel is not one of them.
Ramiel was really cool though
The rebuild version sucked, but OG rammy was probably one of the hypest angels in the series
I don't understand you fuckers. You harp on and on about "muh simplistic enemy design" and then complain about a simplistic design. And Ramiel's design perfectly sums up what you need to know about it: it's an impenetrable fortress. AND EVANGELION ISN'T EVEN A VIDEO GAME. FUCK OFF BACK TO Sup Forums
Ramiel actually comes close to being like a realistic portrayal of the way angels are described in biblical sources.
Ramiel was one of the last angels before the second-half's drastic changes right? I remembet this episode still had detailef scenes where they got the entire city's electricity to fire sniper shots. But the later episodes were the ones that were lazy, too much recycling though the recycling did add a lot of eeriness to the episodes.
Asuka's flashback scenes, though repetitive and weird, were pretty haunting to watch through. It's like having a nightmare where all your worst memories keep coming back.
Really? Any other bits of eva history like this? I just finished everything and it was really good. I don't know why, but EoE and the last two episodes of the anime made me cry a lot.

Jog my memory
Congratulations!
That elicited many silent tears from me. Shinji you fucking idiot.
When she witnesses her mother an hero right after not acknowledging her (Asuka's) existence, user
ah, right. it's been a while since I watching eva, and I've been meaning to watch it when 4.0 comes out, so looks like I'll watch it in another few years at this rate.
That's like 30 years though
>lazy
didn't they run out of money?
Ramiel appeared in episodes 5 and 6, before Asuka or Kaji even appeared.
I'm pretty sure this is the answer, not that they were being lazy.
>that one minute of Asuka and Rei in the elevator
thought my MPC froze or something.
I doubt it was intentional, but not. Everything else is just Christian iconography and names because it sounds cool. If you read about biblical depictions of angels they're always described in impossible and mindfucking ways that make next to no sense, kind of like a giant reflective diamond which morphs into a million different shapes to bend light into a death beam.
actually, time, they had to rewrite the second half at last minute
the Eva remakes are only good for the entire Ramiel sequence
Ramiel was dope as hell. And the way they defeat it was also pretty imaginative.
I like the new Ramiel. The sounds and shapes were pretty cool. Why do you dislike it?
>le angled armor meme
not that user but the new ramiel is a little over the top and the buildup is even more buzzword techy shit followed by le huge budget animation.
Because of the sounds and shapes
I liked him better as this simple crystal menace
New ramiel is over the top in the worst ways possible like user above me said
>le huge budget animation
That budget animation tho.
I can see that.
So why were all the angels so unsettling?
No, fag. That's a myth. They ran out of time because they had to scrap an episode because it was too similar to a real terrorist attack in Japan.
reminder that is wrong to sexualize rei and asuka because they are only teenagers
>rammy
why do americans do this? it sounds stupid
which episode and what attack?
They weren't really, but the noises they made and their "presence" (slow/fast speed, pointyness) and the general "giant eyeball" aesthetic is pretty freaky
Hi, I'm the exact same enemy that you've met the whole game, except I'm invulnerable unless you shout the same thing three (3) times.
APOLOGIZE
>nopan
l-lewd!
Why does Sup Forums love Ramiel? I've seen 2 other Ramiel-thread recently.
I've wondered this too and in addition to , I think for some angels it was how they looked alien in structure, and some were simple and invoked curiosity
So I used to see the similarity to angels used as a point used to shit on DeSu2 a lot, but no one ever elaborated counterpart wise (and I rather like 2).
Would Merak or Megrez be the "Ramiel" of DeSu?
What games could the MAGIs run?
...
I think one of the major reasons I like Neon Genesis Evangelion is because each episode literally ends in a "boss fight" against a unique and bizarre alien abomination.
>a floating cube
Wow great villain
the point is you can't fathom it's limitations or abilities.
it's a big blue fucking cube that makes whale noises and annihilates you if you get too close to it.
>when 4.0 comes out
So, never?
doesn't matter, they'd suck at any game cause it was based off a females mind.
Why do you bother learning our language if your just going to insult it, Muhammad?
Some of them are pretty shit though, like the Spider fucker, the computer virus, and the one floating in space.
>cube
its a diamond retard
that's a fucking truncated icosidodecahedron you fucking tourniquet
its an octahedron you donut
>tilt a cube 45 degrees
>it becomes a different shape
yea I'm the one that's retarded
>top half of diamond reflecting sky
>bottom half is non reflective so they dont have to animate the reflection of the world at a different angle
>didnt even bother to put low detailed reflection or even silhouettes.
>not lazy
>one group of people is literally guilty of conspiracy and sabotage in your country
>declare war on said group
>said group uses propaganda and foreign connections to make the entire world think you're the ultimate evil
>literally tells lies about you being inhuman and killing people for having different skin color (keep in mind, you're building rockets, jets, nuclear technology, and researching genetics at this point)
>everything thinks you're evil for wanting to reclaim your own goddamn country from the parasites bleeding you dry
>country is destroyed AGAIN
>said group flees to America and takes over the school systems and governments so they can start anew on another host

Special ed thread's two blocks down buddy

While we're on tetrahedrons.
Seriously every boss in 64 besides the whale and the true final boss looks like it took 5 whole seconds to conceptualize.
Spherimorph from FFX
It's literally just a round ball of water hovering in the air, occasionally changing colour. Considering how creative a lot of the other bosses are, I wonder if they designed this shit just before their lunch break or something
1 And there came two angels to Sodom at even; and Lot sat in the gate of Sodom: and Lot seeing them rose up to meet them; and he bowed himself with his face toward the ground;
2 And he said, Behold now, my lords, turn in, I pray you, into your servant's house, and tarry all night, and wash your feet, and ye shall rise up early, and go on your ways. And they said, Nay; but we will abide in the street all night.
3 And he pressed upon them greatly; and they turned in unto him, and entered into his house; and he made them a feast, and did bake unleavened bread, and they did eat.
4 But before they lay down, the men of the city, even the men of Sodom, compassed the house round, both old and young, all the people from every quarter:
5 And they called unto Lot, and said unto him, Where are the men which came in to thee this night? bring them out unto us, that we may know them.
here's angels in the bible, and they look like men
Angels had two forms, human and real one.
Some angels looked like this.
I'm the guy he's replying to and it really is debatable if those are actually angels or just celestial beings, but my point still stands. There's at least two, the wheels within wheels with thousands of eyes, and the one with thousands of wings covered in eyes. Both impossible to fathom compared to a baby with fucking feathery wings.
>baby with fucking feathery wings.
Where did these fuckers even come from? I'm pretty sure all angels in human form look like adult males.
>People still deny that angels are fucking aliens
Seriously, designs from Ezekiel are rad as fuck. SMT retconned some cool designs from it tho.
Baroque art.
Rent free
So what exactly was the point of angels? Like why would an alien race be satisfied with a bunch of apocalypse weapons roaming a planet? What's the point?
Leave humans behind, fine, they grow, they create, etc.
But angels? Why?
When will hiro ban Americans from this site?
Just a guess, but it was probably the Sarin Gas Attack.
Is this an angel thread?
Thirty seconds of googling told me that it is a reference/tribute to another work.
>game has a hidden happy ending
oh and another problem, not exclusive to ramiel but all angels, was how over the fucking top the amount of blood was. like huge lakes worth of blood came out of each angel.
>tfw no good EVA game ever
read the eva wiki. it's all quite stupid once you start getting into the literal what and why. like the black moon and all that.
Asuka's flashbacks were only in the DC, or am I remembering it wrong? If I'm right then maybe he only watched the regular cut.
One of the kinoest moments is the series desu.
how much shit did I miss if I only watched the regular cut of the series? p-please don't spoil it
It's not from the bible, but SMT has some neat "angels." There's also the SMTIV designs of Gabriel, Uriel, Michael, Raphael and Merkabah, but those seemed better in concept than in actual execution.
My favorite angel is actually the one that starts as as a corrosive microbe and evolves into a digital living computer.
meh, the one for the nds is pretty good
I don't think they're technically aliens, at least not more so than humans.
I dislike the fact that they removed Ramiel firing back, essentially placing the blame for the first shot failing on Shinji (kid is already a fucking trainwreck, he doesn't need that). Completely changes the narrative. Especially when it proceeds to do fucking nothing while Misato's giving some bullshit monologue even though it was utterly relentless on all that attacked it just a minute prior.
You missed Anno going full Anno before EoE to the degree that would never fly on the TV.
Think like that:
TV cut -> lead up to TV ending
Director's cut -> lead up to EoE -> EoE essentially replacing last two TV episodes
Absolutely worth the watch.
you're joking, right?
fuck, Imissed that much? damn.
EVA fucking sucked
I never liked sandalphon
designwise he was top notch, the fight was just okay though/
Never a bad time to rewatch NGE + EoE, considering it myself during the holidays. Get Sephirotic's BD rip of both, it's the best out there.
Literally just an art fad. Cherubs are literally 4 faces & a fuckton of wings.
What genitalia lies behind those goopy wings I wonder?
I can easily get it, right? I'm not gonna have to go on a hunt or some shit after nyaa shit the bed, will I? any chance you can just link me?
?
It's translucent you blind neger.
What does it do when it needs eyedrops?
I fail to see what's hard to understand. Was your prior post in jest? Was it genuine?
Begone mindless servant of God.
?
Cry a lot
I always figured the point was making part of it see-through to make it seem even stranger and non-lifelike because there's nothing in it. The bottom makes the most sense for that since most shots are looking up at it.
