for the general population it's Goku going SSJ on Namek

>>149605465
why didn't they shoot in her general direction?

>>149605603
Is that a Gurren Lagann reference?

>>149605513
literally filename, jesus

Evangelion doesn't have enough fame to be all time.
It'd have to come from akira or gits maybe ghibli.
My vote goes to the motorcycle race in akira.

was just about to post this.

all the images in this thread are primarily iconic anime images FOR GAIJIN.

This is simply because its what we've been exposed to. Bebop, DBZ, EVA, ect. and this generally being only from the last 20 or so years in which anime fandom has taken off in the west.

Most of you newfags don't have a good grasp on just how seriously Japan takes Gundam. Its their Star Wars. They have Char Aznable themed automobiles, vibrators, and a GOD DAMN 1:1 SCALE STATUE of the RX-78 sitting in Tokyo.

I know most of /a/ despises Gundam to the point of giving it its own containment board, but we do NOT speak for anime fandom at large.

>there are people who have watched EoE without watching NGE

Honestly, I'm more okay with that than the people who watched all of NGE but didn't want EoE because they don't want to sit through a movie.

>>149619614
That makes even less sense, seeing how NGE is ~9 hours.

Not him, but there's a lot of still shots in NGE. Also, the last two episodes and several scenes of other ones are almost clip shows. The show also has the occasional QUALITY moment.

It still looked pretty good, though.

>>149606658
this

>>149614368
That makes no fucking sense, why would someone watch EoE without seeing NGE first?

>>149621668
I kind of want to show EoE to people who haven't watched NGE now, see what they think is going on

I'll go with either Akira Bike-slid or Namek SSJ, with honorable mentions of the posted shots of Spike Spiegel and Ash Ketchum.

>>149624446
I did that once. Me and a couple guys marathoned it and one guy came in at the end and just caught EoE. He didn't seem any more lost than the others.

Gurren Lagan reference thing was an obvious joke by that anon since he knows the gurren Lagann scene copied that one not the other way around. The other two idk, might be bait or not. Gits is relatively obscure compared to much more well known anime like DBZ and Pokémon.

Are you bitches gonna post this or what

somehow you all forget the show is 21 years old

>>149605572
just cos he kinda accepts whatever misato gives him and also he is thinking it might turn asuka on in some way

misato's a fucking bitch though - asuka recognises it but shinji doesn't and just accepts whatever bullshit misato throws at him. also he just wants to be like everyone else then kaworu comes along so he can get out of that stupid thought pattern but he just can't so he just continues to be manipualted by misato and genji

>>149627852
Misato's just doing her job, like all adults do. Parents for example make mistakes and Misato as a parent figure does as well but you don't her for that because nobody's perfect. Shinji needed grow up and speak up for himself which pretty much only happened late in the series.

>>149627883
yes but her job is to manipulate shinji so he cannot grow up.

asuka just goes along with her bullshit and not so much speak up for himself but speak for himself. misato as a parent figure is a misnomer, she's placed with shinj to manipulate him so he has only one place to go, so he has to either pilot the fucking eva or fucking go die like the rest of everyone who would leave.

then they'd just bring in someone else to pilot unit 1, like kaworu or something

>>149625121
Best scene in the series hands down.
Tied to Asuka vs MP evas if we include EoE.
Not iconic by any measure.

>>149626918
You mean Dragonball z and pokemon

Cowboy Bebop is popular for people who are just getting into anime. EVA isn't on that tier.

How delusional are you?

>>149627943
not iconic no

eva tries to avoid iconic scenes because it's not a poster it's a show

of course they exist but the word 'iconic' is again, a misnomer for lack of a better word

yes
