>>13845344
Maybe because it's half Raideen remake.

>>13845354
How does it compare to the actual Raideen remake?

>>13845354
The drooling brain-dead retards who say this have invariably never watched Raideen.

>>13845374
I have and the similarities are uncanny:

-Non-human teenage boy protag
-Main mecha's main weapon is sound and uses archery
-Mu is part of the mythology
-Heavy in oceanic iconography
-A lot of wild monsters of the week
-Bitter ending
-Lots of fan service

>>13845344
Indeed, it's better.

Just admit you fags only like it because "muh growing up in the 90s".

>>13845374
Except the director has said himself that its suppose to be a modern raideen.

Anon, you haven't even watched Rahxephon to spout such an idiotic statement.

Quon for looking like a Rei clone had a very colorful personality.

>>13845502
It's not like people can watch most of the show, since the subbers themselves gave up early on. Only Luurah can do something, at this point.

It's fucking Eva for hipsters that want to like Eva but don't want to like something mainstream.

>But the robot looks like Raideen and the the aliums are called Mu!
And? Do you know anything about Raideen besides that?

she's also cuter than Rei

>>13845727
ADV was pumping this shit out in the 2000s like no tomorrow, it's the only "EVA clone" that casual anime fans can even name. How is RahXephon NOT mainstream?

>Do you know anything about Raideen besides that?

Do you?

Also unlike Rei, Quon is love

Neither does Baldios.

In any case, RahXephon has a lot more offer than Evangelion. Everything in the show just feels more developed than Eva. More so knowing that Eva isn't meant to make any sense, and the sole reason it exists is to piss off Otaku. That, and Eva seems a bit childish in comparison in every way.

>>13845344
As if evangelion wouldn't have been 10x times better if shinji and misato had properly banged.

Hi, I've lived 6 years in Japan and I'd like to ask why people use the word "christmas cake" here like it's a normal term?

It's a very heavily insulting word, only used by few women-hating grandpa's there, not used in positive context ever.

There seems to be some misunderstanding going on this site. Don't use it about characters you like. Now you know.

>>13848346
"Otaku" also has a strong negative connotation and people in here/westerners use it all the time as if not. Stop whining, people use words in different ways in different places. Who cares.

>>13848346
11s was literally a racial slur for Japanese in Geass and people use it here all the time

Western culture=!Japanese connotations

Revolutionary.

Just admit you fags only like it because "muh waifus".

So every Eva, Gurren Lagann and Gainax fan ever then?

>>13845382
quit bullshitting. Anyone who seriously thinks RahXephon is legitimately some sort of "Raideen remake" hasn't actually seen more than like 2 eps of Raideen. Yes, there ARE surface-level similarities between the two shows like all the things you have listed, for example. But that doesn't mean shit. RahXephon is completely different in story and tone and plot and just about everything. It obviously draws some influence from Raideen and that's cool and all and appreciable, but that doesn't make it a "half Raideen remake".

I like both

If you want a good version of Evangelion just watch Brain Powerd.

I hate all anime except for Tomino's stuff.

We can tell you've swallowed plenty of Tomino's "stuff".

How can something be NGE clone if NGE copies everything?

>>13845344
Nah, it's just better written and developed and most importantly, it doesn't have a pretentious meta-message delivered by a self hating otaku in his deepest depression, that and Yamada's designs are great, Rei is still cuter than most Yamada girls tho.
And EVA is a shitty Zeorymer clone anyway.
>>13845374
I guess most Japs are drooling retards then since Raideen and Rahxephon are related in SRW MX.

That's a pretty bold claim. I haven't watched RahXephon yet, but there's no way in hell that's true with an OP like that.

Rah's one of my favorite shows, while you'd have to pay me to suffer through Eva TV again. I don't care if it's a clone or not, it's at least watchable.

Except for that one episode. 16 I think? The flashback ep that tried to pretend Makoto wasn't an awful pile of shit? That one.

Evafags man I swear
