After watching so mush modern anime NGE doesnt feel that good
Specifically why I never got the hardon for the show. EoE is incredible, but the television show has a lot of problems. One can feel the lack of focus and foresight. The lackluster animation is a problem, too, because for some reason all people remember are the sequences animated by Mitsuo Iso and the overhead kick that was reused like 2 times. I also always got the impression that people who liked the characters never truly got the show. It was my impression that Anno intended for you to hate the entire cast, which is why all the characters (every single one) are obnoxious pieces of shit. Sound directing wasn't anything special, either and while the visual directing elevates certain episodes to pretty impressive levels, they are complete outliers.
It was revolutionary during its time and EoE overshadows the whole thing and allows people to forget its flaws. It's still a great watch.
Don't respond to bait
>posts bait
>asks others not to respond to it
what games are you playing here?
Its not a bait those. Every single one of OPs points has been regularly launched at Eva
Asuka makes the show.
You are missing the point if you think the opposite
It feels like a more polished version of Ideon/0079
Didn't Eva have an above average budget for a TV anime? Why did they have so much trouble evenly distributing it? Some shots have god-tier animation but a large portion of it is basically stills like the OP says.
From what I remember it was the opposite. Only had like 100k per episode or something. Thought my memory is pretty cloudy on that subject.
You should watch some media that has actually horrible characters, like The Marriage of Maria Braun. The characters in UC Gundam do worse things but nobody ever berates them for it.
The plot in Eva doesn't play the main role, it's a decoration. NGE is like a poem. It contains imagery that you either like or don't like.
And the tone is messy too the first couple of episodes have this background feeling of loneliness, but then ep. 5 to about 16 just feel too happy, too standard. It's like Anno had an idea of what he wanted it to feel like then lost that idea then found it again for the last 10 episodes
>do worse things
It's not about how ethically wrong their actions are but about how insufferable the members behave. The ability to empathize with someone doesn't mean that you're willing to swallow their behavior. Of the character in Evangelion simply behave like worthless cunts for 24-25 episodes straight. As far as I am concerned, I imagine Anno suffering from physical pain after his fanbase turned these same creatures into waifus.
This is basically Eva but well executed
That is the fucking point.
Starts lonely, makes you think things have gotten better for Shinji, then it only gets worse than it began.
Funny, because similar to Eva Shinsekai's production values are retardedly inconsistent, too.
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
meh bait
No, I meant they are more insufferable. Didn't you watch Zeta Gundam? Or ZZ? The where nobody cares a little girl dies twice? Hell even the cast of 0079 can be dicks.
They aren't. They only come off as even worse because of Tomino's retarded dialgue. Almost every single character in his shows comes off as a complete spazz because of it, even in G-Reco and Gainer. Most lines Bellri utters make you wonder whether or not he's currently suffering from a seizure. Then you remember who's directing.
>They only come off as even worse because of Tomino's retarded dialgue
>they only come off as worse because of how they're portrayed in the show
The show being so imperfect is what actually comes back around and makes it perfect and human again
Poorly and autistically written dialogue are not the same as consciously portrayed character behavior. Someone talking like a retard is not the same as someone behaving like one in a private setting. Amuro might be a whiney little cunt in 0079, but Shinji reached an entirely different level. No Gundam ever put that much focus on the characters insecurities, either, so I don't see why you'd even be comparing the shows. Evangelion characters are more annoying by proxy because it's the shows intent to emphasize human flaws and it spends a lot of its times showing you just how flawed and worthless these character act outside of the their pseudo military base.
but EoE is easily the worst part
This is what peak contrarianism looks like
>Vague bullshit which relevance is never explained
Show doesn't spoonfeed you the plot, leaves it open to interpretation.
>Characters ruining the show: see Asuka
Characters absolutely making the show: see Asuka
>Plot is retarded without real causality
Plot takes wild, unpredictable turns, like real life does.
>Animation is mostly moving stills
Show contains a shitload of beautiful stills and takes its time with its pacing.
>Characters are killed off to make the anime to seem more mature, not because it serves the plot
I just disagree with this point.
>There are unnecessary characters like Glasses kun and 4th child.
Plenty of characters flesh out the world and make it feel alive
>The ending
I see nothing wrong here.
I'm not saying EVA is for everyone, but there's a lot of room for personal taste here. Personally, just about every problem you listed is a highlight for me. There is no one perfect formula for an anime.
Asuka was completely unnecessary.
>Characters absolutely making the show: see Asuka
You misspelled Rei.
Anno wanted to bone her VA and gave her more screentime.
This is a myth.
>a myth
yeah he didnt choke or abuse her
He wanted to bone Jean's VA
>Plot is retarded without real causality
This is my favorite part of your retarded bait because Anno goes out of his way to contrive a situation that would actually call for 14 year olds in giant robots besides being a fucking toy commercial.
imagine having a low enough iq to think this
actually, that's something that tried to be eva, failed, and is forgotten
