Keyser download it and give it to us

I was trying to use one of the download sites to save it for myself, but i won't work. I can just watch - the video is continuing to play for me, and is buffering new data as it goes. i am afraid to touch anything in case to stops

And I would feel bad uploading a file any.

I could always write a transcript and the thread can act it out.

(Wait, is posting this link a bad idea? Let me know if this somehow resembles doxxing.)



But that's exactly why they do matter. They aren't some sort of giants of the anime community, like Jeff and Dan. Yet here they are, as fascinated by all the fuss as anyone.

How the heckling heck would posting a link to a person who tells the world his profession and job in a Twitter bio be doxxing

Boah

Also I couldn't take someone seriously who was called Professor McNutt. It sounds like the stage name of a porn star

I don't know, man. Recent events have me feeling like posting any links that give you additional insight into someone's life will result in some alt-right internet personality making a "ResetEra doxxes professor for saying anime has no place" video.

Jeff actually loves RDR2 now it's weird.

2016 all over again.

Neon Danesis Evangelion when?
Neon Jeffesis Edangelion. There. Make a worse one, I dare you.

Also is the G in Evangelion pronounced like in "gel" or "get"?
The story around Evangelion is always the wierdest, bitterest things, and seeing old ads like that drives it home again.
Can you explain more or point me somewhere that can? I always got the idea that the story around the property was as interesting as the work itself and I'd like to know more.

Also I read somewhere that waifu culture sort of grew up around this show and that's dumb given what it's about but I'll have to watch it for myself to find out.

all i know about evangelion is theres someone who's like 'get in the damn mech shinji' and that the creator is a misogynist who hates women and thats why the women in evangelion suffer

The best part of Neon Mega Drive Evangelion is where you can see the exact moment they completely ran out of budget and decide to wing it.

I tried watching Eva a couple of years ago and made it about halfway through before losing interest. I'll probably try again if it comes to Netflix Australia.

evangelion is not pretentious

if you want pretentious you can go watch some shaft anime

the middle of evangelion is a drag but its worth it to get to the end and the movie

Eva is great. It's been a long time since i've seen it. Might be time for a rewatch.

Edit: also, yeah, it's not pretentious. Don't get hung up on the christian symbolysm. The show doesn't either.

I feel like people that call it pretentious are just leaning on a really easy/cheap shorthand for actual proper criticism and are too lazy to actually pick it apart. I don't feel it's that pretentious at all, but I do not really care for anything it's doing thematically or even its character writing. The only character I liked was Misato and they ruin that character in End of Eva, too, so I kinda just don't care for anything they do character wise. I said it before but I like broken characters and shows about broken people but nothing about the cast had anything for me. I think it might be some of the anime-trope trappings around it that turn me off and the real life stuff juxtaposed with the insane unreality of what they are dealing with. Honestly found it profoundly boring on that front and then thematically the way it handles depression via Shinji is... annoying? Like I legitimately hate it.

Having never seen NGE and having not the slightest idea what it is about reading this thread combined with seeing gifs of robot horses makes me think it's Christian Power Rangers

i like evangelion because even though its a little bit of a selfish work, i identify with the specific kind of working through depression and coming to grips with finding meaning and hope in what is ultimately kind of a grim life it presents. so its a selfish work i can put into the perspective of my own self

also i think its a kind of a decent representation of absurdism and the ideas of camus
