I saw End of Evangelion for the first time last night.

I think a part of me has died. I don't know what exactly, but something.

I was really confused watching the end movie the first time because it just went fucking nuts. I didnt even have time to process stuff because something more crazy just kept happening.

It makes sense if people watched the show. They explain it very well even in all of the chaos.

Its a new translation and new VAs. Also apparently they changed some scenes and interactions and fucked it up.

Because they went for a more literal Japanese translation. So now everyone says Nevv instead of Nerv and the call shinji "the third children" instead of child.

Oh and they made the kaworu thing way more sexual/flirtatious. Instead of leaving it ambiguous.

Are you fucking kidding me? "The third children" makes no grammatical sense.

They also changed the nature of one of Shinji's relationships and really toned it down. Hurts the story as far as I'm concerned.

What? Which one? Put it in spoilers if you want.

So yeah, the children thing sounds odd but at the same time not.

I heard the Nerv thing, they are definitely saying Nerv, they are just pronouncing it differently but it doesn't bother me at all.

The Angel boy. Im blanking on his name. Apparently they changed it so he says he likes shinji. And shinji says no one else has ever said they liked him.

Really? I find that very odd since there's the whole LGBT thing. A bit of boy loving boy seems like something they'd want to leave in.

Zangulus posted...
Oh yeah. They took that out too. Probably for rights issues.

That's what I thought. I didn't think I'd care about it being removed, but I think I don't like that it was removed XD

I had to look it up, but I swear I heard Vert's new VA and I was right! She's Misato!

Be fair. If you had to teach those dysfunctional assholes you'd be an alcoholic too.

She was an alchy before that too though.

I'll always love Asuka. I always felt she didn't get enough time to shine and wasn't able to do things as good as I feel she could. I actually have that feeling a lot of times in anime cause I tend to like secondary characters more than MCs. And the MC usually gets to be the one that is the winner in the end.

I believe in you Asukaaaa!!!

After watching some comparisons, I'm not sure how I feel about this new dub. Especially in regards to certain scenes.

For example, that scene in The End of Evangelion. The line is now closer to the Japanese version, but the original dub version fits better imo.

The only new voice I didn't like much was Misato. Now, I'm ok with the performance, but I swear she's doing more than one voice for this.

Seeing your mom commit suicide by hanging in front of you when you're a little kid will do that to you. :/

Yeah, by themselves I'd tend to agree but Asuka and Shinji together has a ton of entertainment value imo. Asuka brings out a side of Shinji that you really don't see with anyone else. Episode 9 is pretty much my favorite episode of the show. Although that does owe a lot to the most glorious minute of mecha fighting ever.

Asuka may be a bitch, and shinji a whiny coward but I've still got a lot of sympathy for them. At the end of the day, they're teenagers with the fate of the world resting on their shoulders. Shinji's dealing with depression and abandonment issues, and Asuka's definitely got some serious ptsd from seeing her mother's suicide.

Also, i'm not sure why people make such a big deal out of fly me to the moon not being there when A cruel angel's thesis is pretty much the perfect anime song.

Just imagine if Cruel Angel's Thesis was swapped out for some song that's during the anime.
