FinalChaos Posted April 18, 2015 Posted April 18, 2015 Waaaaaiiiit ......... WHY I mean just WHY ???? What's wrong with you people ?! Since I wasn't able to see the end vote count, I call a scam. There's no way some perfectly sane people would vote for Eva. But seriously if I have to watch Eva again, I might as well commit seppuku. Quote

Kurisu-Chan Posted April 18, 2015 Posted April 18, 2015 I'm participating in NGE...I hate mechas..I really hate mechas. Quote
Turnip Sensei Posted April 18, 2015 Posted April 18, 2015 I'm participating in NGE...I hate mechas..I really hate mechas. After Eva you will hate everything but the mechas But really why? Haven't people already seen it, since it is kind of legandary. And I thought I was done with Eva. Well maybe there is something to be acquire from the second watching. (other than suffering) Luckily sequels aren't part of the anime club, so we can't watch End of Evangelion for the movie cycle. Quote

I've seen rebuild and liked it very much but never seen the original. Quote
Down Posted April 18, 2015 Posted April 18, 2015 And I thought I was done with Eva. Well maybe there is something to be acquire from the second watching. (other than suffering) I've watched NGE 5 times and I still get something out of it every time. And imo the few people who'll watch it and not dislike it for the usual reasons should watch End of Evangelion too, it really goes with the series. Quote

End of Evangelion is pretty good, I liked it more than the series. And Eva itself was good experience the first time I watched it, but it was kind of exhausting, that's why never thought about watching it again. But mostly I'm just salty because I wanted to watch something else. Quote
Down Posted April 18, 2015 Posted April 18, 2015 But mostly I'm just salty because I wanted to watch something else. I wouldn't have minded watching something else, there's still been only one instance of the club watching something I haven't seen >.> But the other winning option seemed to be Kare Kano (which I've already seen, and although it's really good I didn't want to rewatch it), and to be honest I couldn't resist at the idea of seeing some people's first reaction to Eva, it's always interesting :3 Quote

Kosakyun Posted April 19, 2015 Posted April 19, 2015 The plan worked! Time to see how wimpy Shinji really is. Quote
Kat Posted April 20, 2015 Posted April 20, 2015 Do we have to watch end of evangelion? Nevermind Quote
Stray Cat Posted April 22, 2015 Author Posted April 22, 2015 5 eps in. Right now I say rebuild was better. Why? LESS RANDOM STARING CUT-SCENES! Quote
Turnip Sensei Posted April 22, 2015 Posted April 22, 2015 Watching Eva again is not as bad as I initially thought. You start to notice certain things... And man does it play with your emotions. Quote
Kosakyun Posted April 22, 2015 Posted April 22, 2015 Watched five episodes of Eva. It ain't that bad. I'm not cringing yet. I want to see more EVA action. Quote

Down Posted April 22, 2015 Posted April 22, 2015 Arc action is episode 8 to 15. That's when you'll get all the cool animation, wacky comedy and fun fights of the series. And yes, it goes hand in hand with Asuka's arrival. (I'm tired as fuck lately and feeling like shit so I don't know when I'll start my rewatching of the series... Hopefully next week) Quote
Kosakyun Posted April 22, 2015 Posted April 22, 2015 Excellent. Looking forward to it. I'm actually excited at what will happen. Though I do agree that there are a lot of scenes that just flat-out drag. Like them staring scenes. Wtf are you looking at, Shinji? Stray Cat 1 Quote
Down Posted April 22, 2015 Posted April 22, 2015 Yeah, the pacing in Evangelion is a bit different from modern series. It's kinda contemplative at times, with a lot of fix shots where nobody talks (especially the part where nobody talks is unusual: your typical anime is very talkative), closer to what you'd see in a movie. I like that a lot, like most parts of the series, but it makes sense for some people to find it weird. Quote
Kosakyun Posted April 22, 2015 Posted April 22, 2015 It has its appeal, that's for sure. I find it too long sometimes, though. They just stared at each other for so long at that train station in Episode 5, man. But after that, Shinji say, "I'm home." God that hit hard. It was beautiful, honestly. Quote
Stray Cat Posted April 22, 2015 Author Posted April 22, 2015 I just started laughing during that scene. Quote
