smirkingcatsooo confession time
i am a huge mecha fan when it comes to anime, mechas belong to my all time favourite, they are just awesome and i adore them so, so much. as such it is a bit of a black point on my list that i never watched Neon Genesis Evangelion. a black point, i am happy to report i rectified last night.
on that: yes, i did binge watch all 26 episodes in one go, starting around 7pm ending around 3.30am - it was a glorious, glorious thing to do, and the perfect ending for my do- nothing-day where i just went to my grans for her birthday and then was taken back home and ignored my to do list and just had a nice time! glorious and i am so happy that i took this one day off, i needed it so, so much as rl is giving me loads of shits right now but totally holding back the giggles.
so with that out of the way my thoughts on neon genesis evangelion:
i was dragged in right from the start! that was awesome:
shinji is such a relate-able character, and you feel for him right from the get go!
the evas are drawn amazingly and i also liked the angles and how each of them had a different look, i think having more knowledge about the christian angle- hierarchy while not adding anything to the story would have made it interesting to see on what properties they focused, but it was still awesome without knowing anything.
the story was amazeballs right up intil episode 24 because to me it felt like in 25 & 26 they just forgot what they were doing, so many things simply were never explained, just hinted at, that was kinda sad for me because i like to know weather i guessed right or wrong
--> like for the magi if the brain is in casper-3, does that mean that the heart is in baltasar-2 for the mother --> or is the mother melchior-1 with the heart? and what is then standing for the women? when we know that the three pcs are her 3 personas?
we also never really know what yui was doing, except that she merged with an eva apparently? and also interesting because of the voices the committee is part of seelen? how, and why?
but that is my only beef with it, and it is true animes are incredible bad with endings, so i am used to this.
the characters all of them were just capturing and totally awesome and relateable, and it was easy to understand their motivations.
HOWEVER i have no clue why rei is that popular, i personally do not find her that interesting, misato by far takes the spot of best women in that anime for me --> also the audio only sex scene was hilarious to me!
fazit:
i dont regret watching it at, i regret not watching it sooner because it was so worth it. but then as i really needed a pick-me-up this might simple have been the perfect moment for this anime!
and yesssss!!!! for all the meachas! mechas are awesome!
