The Newer Testament

Not an anime, manga pages slideshow (colored in this case).

Laser disks with these slideshows were popular in the 90s because most manga shops couldn't rent enough space or handle the total load of all books to sell. One disk could carry shots of a dozen of volumes. Readers would buy it and use frame step function to switch between pages. Top titles even had some animated effects that you would enjoy in realtime.

Then the technology was bought by Microsoft, and the rest is history.

Now that the jig is up...

Why is Yea Forums more obssessed with NGE then /m/?

Because it's one of the few mecha people on Yea Forums have seen and they think it's something more than Anno taking stuff he liked from the mecha he watched as a kid and building on it. They think Anno pulled it out of a vaccuum like some kind of savant.

Wow, Look at This Cross I Put In This Scene, Just Like In The Bible, Religious Symbolism Will Make This Show Look Smart

Why does this work? What kind of magic is this

THANK YOU

okay guys you can stop with the meme replies now.

So you're saying these themes and inspirations are present in past texts, do you happen to know them?

The psychological undertones are original to Eva as far as I know but the conflict of wanting or not wanting to pilot the robot that Shinji goes through is present in the early Gundam series. As is the idea of being an outsider that nobody understands. The angels are of course stock episodic monsters like in every super robot series.

Funny how modern society frowns on religion as a stupid old bigoted belief yet religious symbolism in media is considered a mark of patrician high IQ art.

BTW I loved NGE but I see what they're doing there and not falling for it. I love the religious symbolism as a thematic choice.

Have fun.

THAT'S THE WRONG MUSIC YOU MONG

Alright, thanks, gotta get on that.

Ultraman, Getter Robo, Mobile Suit Gundam, Gaint Monster movies in general, Space Runaway Ideon, etc.

>The psychological undertones are original to Eva as far as I know
Well, the Freudian aspects are original (at least for mecha and associated genres). Most of the other psychological stuff has some inspiration elsewhere.

UFO is a major but obscure one.

yeah and then like.... the world ends man, but like everyone turns into orange juice, yeah and then theres a giant naked lady in space... yeah we need crosses and shit yeah haha everyone will think this is so deep

Because Eva has mecha but doesn't dwell on them, we just get a few technical details and cool little facets (I used to be a little shit who would drop shows after one episode, and initially, the only thing that made me decide to keep going with Eva was the EVA-01 activation sequence and the fact that LCL is a cool as shit idea), and it isn't /m/anly either. Instead the focus is on aspects not usually especially important to mecha series.

What the hell do you think mecha series are? Endless listings of fake statistics?

I think they do more than have a couple of cool sequences, user. I'm well aware of what you mean but I stand by my point - Eva does not dwell on its mecha at all, and /m/ prefers series that do to a far greater extent.

>Eva does not dwell on its mecha at all
Apart from all the fight scenes, all the repeated launch sequences, their massive importance to the plot beyond just being weapons for the characters to use?

I watched it today first time but I honestly got a serious Bosh-like feel from the ending. I think behind most of the weird "symbolic" shit there's just an aesthetic choice, not a deep meaning.

Not him but it's obvious that user meant technical detail, as in parameters and shit

I don't think that's in any way a defining aspect of mecha.

Could you give an example of a mecha series that dwells on its mecha? When I think of shows that /m/ argues about the most, I think of the original UC lineup -- 0079, Zeta, ZZ, and CCA. ZZ slightly less so and mostly discussed in comparison to Zeta, but still. And ultimately, all of these are about people. Autistic people written by a depressed weirdo, who is rather blasé about the technical details of sci-fi when asked about it directly, but still about people. Even when some technical aspect of the world was explained, it was to facilitate human drama. Case in point, Minovsky physics were thought up to force characters to get closer to each other in a very literal sense; force them to fight up-close instead of far away, and even to force them to get out of the robots entirely so they'd have to see each other face to face. And it normally goes without saying that Gundam goes beyond genre-defining. Gundam is industry-defining. Yet no one ever says "Gundam isn't about the mecha, it's different from other mecha", in fact it's often the "other mecha" people are talking about when they praise Eva as so different, despite Gundam being one of Eva's most important predecessors.
