man, anno's a fucking boss

to get it straight, i don't think asuka is a BAD character, i just don't like her because i don't feel like i'm supposed to

she definitely has her place in the narrative and i understand her function in the story

i just find myself confounded with how popular of a character she is, as though she were a naruto character

"Tsunderes"
It's a weird ass masochism fetish thing exclusive to weebs. The less you know the better.
i'm familiar

but asuka has ZERO dere, she's all tsun

3157
It's Misato btw
>Choosing the worn out roastie over the child clone of shinji's mom.
as much as i don't actually have a dog in this fight, i just find myself baffled with those who like asuka

how the FUCK do people like asuka

and don't say it's because she's sympathetic, every character is sympathetic

MFW anime exposure has caused Verb to miss the point entirely and accept a literal child molester as "Best Girl" when the entire point was everyone in the show being the worst. (But especially Yui)
i didn't miss that point at all actually, i'm just being facetious (even though misato is genuinely my favorite character)

child molestor is probably over-the-top though, she offered shinji pity sex towards the very end when their lives are falling apart, but she immediately retracted when shinji said no

a child molestor probably wouldn't have cared

and even then, whether she was offering him sex is kind of ambiguous anyway, maybe she just wanted to cuddle or something and shinji just assumed the worst

What qualifies as a "shitty fuck-off character"?
check azumarill's page and refresh like ten times for ten good examples of what i'm talking about

sidenote, people who have unironic debates about who the "best girl" in NGE is need to be wiped off of the fucking planet
Yeah, there is no point to discuss it, because Asuka is obviously the best girl
NEVER post in this thread again

What did you think of episodes 25 & 26 in comparison to EoE?

EoE is also full of even more crazy trivia than what was on that site you linked.
if i didn't already know that EoE existed prior to watching those last two episodes, i probably wouldn't have liked them as much as i did

but i did know, so i was able to enjoy them a lot more than the average person i think

just knowing how hard the mecha shit fell by the wayside towards the end of that series is incredibly refreshing, because now i don't have to feel as embarrassed to admit that i enjoyed a mecha show, since it's not really a mecha show (though that does sort of complicate things whenever i try to talk about it with the uninitiated)

i found the philosophizing really fun, and i think they explored shinji's broken psychology in a very beautiful and satisfying way, especially considering how much i'm able to relate with all his existential issues

i still prefer EoE of course, because i'm just a sucker for big, depressing, mindfucky, "spectacle"-type films, and it's obviously cooler to see EVERY single character get their arc fulfilled rather than just shinji's

but rather than view it as a replacement, i prefer to look at the two endings as complementary, so that way, i can have fun trying to parse what that all "means" for myself

Breaking news, verbatim is using an anime avatar unironically.
what gets me though is that weebs would NEVER use cool shit like i do, ever

it's either some shitty fuck-off character, a cringey gif that doesn't loop, or the girl they masturbate to the most

meanwhile i'm actually spotting things that would actually make quality avatars

in any case, the moment i start referencing shit and posting smug anime girls is the day the world will end

when it's my last ever chance to do it, or if something extremely bad will happen if i wait a day longer

not that i work well under pressure, but it does give me a pretty nice boost of adrenaline to help motivate me in a forced and superficial kind of way

ideally, i'll just have a self-motivating innate passion for whatever it is i want to improve on

the fact that people only ever seem to get this introspective when they're drunk or high is super fucking depressing to me
having fun is the devil
husky is having so much fun contemplating why he doesn't have any friends on a forum he's been on for four years, likely in a dark room alone at night

So which part of Evangelion is good? Just that movie?
kinda all of it? i would describe the movie as the best part though, yeah

it's a strange case where if you know what it's trying to do, and you can stomach the first half, which is not as good and has a lot of really dumb moments, but has necessary character developments and stuff that you need for certain emotional payoffs to work later, then you're going to have a pretty good time

dead-ass, even though the show is still a 6-borderline-7 for me, and EoE is an 8, the franchise taken as a whole would probably be a 9/10 for me if i still didn't have the (apparently disappointing) rebuild movies to watch

but if you find yourself losing patience with the characters' neuroticisms, which i can't really blame you for, then it'll only start becoming apparent what the show is really trying to do around the second half of the show, where it explodes in quality, and then EoE caps it all off with the most artistically gratifying mindfuck i have ever seen in my life

but that was in part due to the fact that i watched the entire show first, sooo

the average person who's into this type of show, i'd recommend watching at least six episodes
personally, i was glued to the screen after episode 4

Much like Pink Floyd's album "The Dark Side of the Moon" is rumored to synchronize with The Wizard of Oz (1939), this film is said to match with Nine Inch Nails' album "The Downward Spiral". If played together, "Hurt" will coincide with Third Impact. For this to work properly you must start the album on the opening slate with the vertical, white characters and you must pause the album during the intermission credits.
oh my fucking god

guess who's trying this RIGHT NOWWWWW
it actually kinda works somewhat

there are multiple points where it's like "okay this doesn't really fit at all" but i was taken off guard by the number of beats that would actually match up exactly with what's going on, or a song/lyrics just generally matching the vibe of the scene

Spoiler
hurt fittingly so perfectly over the third impact is a little bit too much for me to handle

big man with a gun playing during asuka's death scene + a warm place playing the moment shinji gets back into the sky and finds out she's dead was pretty perfect too

heresy and march of the pigs during the initial SEELE raid was pretty awesome

especially the latter half

link is NSFW and also spoilery obviously

Is Pineapple on puzza considered weird?
No

it's considered felonious

everything i eat is plain, almost nothing i eat is "normal"

i'll snack on a full pack of saltine crackers, literally just the crackers, and finish them in like 10 minutes

sometimes i'll eat plain hamburger or hot dog buns straight out of the bag if they're vegan

poketubers are such scum
What's happened? I used to watch Tamashii and Candyevie
Nothing in particular

it's just become startlingly apparent to me how all of them are just soulless cash-grabbing weasels who all make the same exact formulated clickbaity shit content made with low or no effort and are perfectly optimized to get as many views as possible by abusing the youtube algorithm

there are of course diamonds in the rough, i don't really mind tamashii and jwittz is okay
