They're nothing alike.

Jason Baker
>muh anime please go outside
Gavin Miller
>huuuuuman character He's just a pussy, a shit character. Only numale yellow bellies like him. >generic hero You mean an actual hero, worthy of some sort of respect?
that's fucking pathetic, glad I had no intention of giving my money to those hacks from pacific rim
Benjamin Reyes
The whole “i didn’t know this existed, i just happened to come up with the exact same idea on my own” deal is starting to become a bit too common with this guy.
Jordan Harris
You didn't highlight it all. He said he's seen scenes from it. Hence .
I don't even give a fuck. Pacific Rim 1 was good. The second one looks like a Transformers sequel. I have no plans to watch it.
Christian Parker
Its a good thing EVA was the first series/film to introduce the concept of using boats to move large things across bodies of water. Also the first to establish the idea of hostile alien entities, of course.
Andrew Cox
I didn’t even pay to see PR and I still left feeling ripped off. Even the NGE Rebuilds were better.
Grayson Cook
eva is a deconstruction of the genre, pacific rim is a jumbled mess of ideas trying to make money.
Alexander Rogers
>deconstruction of the genre Develop this. I've seen it before.
Nolan Martin
it shows what happens when you put kids with baggage into "robots".
Chase Peterson
>Toro likes Ito How likely would an adaptation of Ito story be now? Which one would you like to see? inb4 DRRRRRRRRRRRR DRRRRRRRRRRRR
Ayden Reyes
eva is shit and people only enjoy it because it's muh first mecha anime and muh first symbolism I understood (which was very obvious and in times hamfisted down viewers' necks, so not much of an achievement). The aliens/angels/whatever were nicely designed though and they deserved to be expanded upon and in better anime.
Jayden Brown
t. dumb evafag who's never seen a single 70s/80s mecha anime or any kaiju movies
Austin Ortiz
>it was good HAHAHHAHA
Tyler Russell
>"love anime and manga" >hasn't seen Eva Unironically what a pleb, Christ
Isaiah Moore
>don't see most overrated anime of all times >pleb sure thing weeb
Colton Lopez

Brody Phillips
>Shinji >bad protagonist
Benjamin Rivera
Yeah but its not shitty ass weeby anime so its better.
get fucked nerd
Dylan James
name one episode where he doesn't whine or cry about something
Henry Jones
The symbolism in eva is meaningless and people enjoy it for the psychodrama it is
Henry Baker
Yes, we know Del Taco was "inspired" by Evangelion, user.
He got away with it. He's going to keep getting away with it, and there's nothing you or I can do about it. This is nothing new.
Jonathan Jackson
>14 year old child soldier literally manipulated by the illuminati >mentally stable
Nathaniel Jones

Hunter Brooks
...
Dominic Howard
and all of that makes a good protagonist I guess
Hudson Davis
He's a 14 year old with a dead mum, a dad who mentally abuses him and was raised by his teacher for the past few years.
tfw was gonna try making a webcomic about people developing powers and fighting factions including rebels, the world government and regular folk and adventurers >start describing it to a friend who offered to help edit >"Isn't that just one piece?" >mfw
IT sure is a direct inspiration... >Fast described the stories as "about the general childishness of man, the only form of life that refuses to grow up." Couldn't Anno be a little more creative when he was writing his "homages"
Camden Ward
No shit user, Del Toro even sites mecha anime and Godzilla movies as his inspiration
Tyler Taylor
>the most entry level of all anime Ftfy. Eva is a must watch, I think and it's also a fantastic series.
Owen Anderson
by that measure hungry caterpillar is an entry level book but I wouldn't call people who never read it plebs
Ryder Harris
They had him working on Silent Hills before it got canned
Noah Fisher
yeah, just like i'm sure he never saw that movie he ripped off for shape of water
Carter Johnson
More like Eva is star wars, forever changing the anime landscape and spawning a myriad of copies. Only to get rebooted and have it totally suck, and also have a large defense force of fags defending it.
Camden Roberts
>Jiro Taniguchi 10/10 taste in manga
Adrian White
>pay homage to EVA >bad grug hate del taco
>rip off the themes and plot of obscure 1970s sci fi novel and add a bunch of cool greek and christian words >wow Anno is so based, EVa is the height of achievement and culture
Parker White
star wars sucked from the get go and so did eva, why the fuck do you keep praising this garbage is beyond me.
Isaac Parker
For the ignorant, is there a single person that a lot of anime tropes can be linked to? Referring to shit like the sound of a water drop used to transition scenes, women/girls always have one of the 4 or 5 personalities, ridiculously convoluted plots, references to some sort of god/demon, etc.
I haven't watched a ton but it's hard not to notice how dertivative this shit can be.
Liam Long
What? One piece dosnt have a fucking plot, go for it. Sure One piece has a setting, but does nothing with it, any plot development is rare if exists at all, and the world building is so slow it only exist since manga is running for 20 years straight. We didnt know shit about how the seas look until like 10 years in.
Grayson Ward
Nobody watches the original anime anymore, they just follow the rebuild movies
Hunter Sanchez
go nagai
Oliver Hall
Evangelion LITERALLY invented scaffolding.
Anthony Long
Liar. Shape of water is almost the same as shape of voice anime
I'm sure you can articulate exactly why you think both landmark franchises "suck." I'll wait.
Nicholas Jones
A lot of series from the seventies were the ones the big anime directors in the nineties grew up with. Rose of Versailles, Kamen Rider, Black Jack, Golgo 13, the original Mobile Suit Gundam, Devilman & Mazinger Z etc
William Gomez
Nobody cares if you copy something as long as your copy is better than the original
Matthew Cruz
rehashing old ideas and rebranding them as own whilst simplifying them to make them easily digestible by wide masses thus getting wide support of literal brainlets who now feel superior for watching something "intellectual" >eva >durr god and christianity simbolysm >SW >generic fantasy but in SPAAACE
