Which do you prefer /a/ The more straightforward and over the

>>153354255
Eh I think Gurren Lagann gets more enjoyment out of me as a show and narrative/music and "enjoyable" characters, however I find discussing Eva to be much better (there have been a few good threads believe it or now) and I think probably think about it more.

These aren't even close to comparable

>evangelion was so deep for him, he doesn't even think there was a conclusion

Eva is for people who like to pretend they're smart while spamming shipping garbage while TTGL doesn't pretend to be anything more than it is.

>>153354873
I like the ending/s but seriously there's literally nothing explained

Even the last line has 3+ possible meanings ranging from she was awake when she was comatose watching Shinji Masterbate to her earlier to potentially being pregnant and refering to morning sickness

I liked both.

They are on incredibly similar on the surface level with depressed MC's in a world of mechs

>>153355496
Shinji is depressed the entire show, Simon is just for a while.

>>153355541
That's why I said surface level

Actually there was dispute to make Rebuild or TTGL. TTGL won out iirc

>>153355352
Everything is explained in the last 2 ep + movie. Rewatch or grow up

>>153354255
experimental and trippy, every time

>>153354255
>Simon pilots an Eva with Kamina's soul

How does this affect the angels

>>153355787
I guess they're both fighting off things with mechs in order to survive, and the mc is depressed at at least one point.
Also if that's true I am fuckin glad TTGL won; I fucking love it.

Is it normal I felt more loss when Kamina and Kittan died than anyone else dying in Eva

>>153354255
How was Evangelion inconclusive? No conclusion tells you everything that will happen thereafter. EoE was a perfect spot to end the story. It was literally a perfect ending.

>>153356372
Gurren Lagann does

And not only angels. There will be a lot of people getting their heads caved in, accounts set straight and wrongs righted.

Depends on whether I want my blood pumping or I just want to zone out.

Rewatch of Evangelion

>>153356515
I really do like the jokes and shit....but do you really think a VA has more knowledge about a character than the average fan?

Take that Vic Magnolia guy who voiced Eduard Elric and refused to believe, that Ed was an atheist.

>>153356480
No, it even left the biggest threat open, because they didn't have a conclusion.

The spiral nemesis was explained, the MC said "Fuck it, we try" and then it ends all hopeful, despite not having faced the biggest problem yet.

>>153357563
Spiral nemesis is sequel bait, if trigger/gainax/whoever the fuck owns the rights decides to make a sequel.

>>153357602
No, it was a concept. A established universal rule and it worked fine at a distance for our heroes to rebell against and be the cool guys. But the problem is, that it was that, a concept. Not some beatable villain.

They could turn it into some villain, but that would be different from what was described.

>>153357465
Just a joke.

>>153354875
TTGL tries to pretend it isnt shit.

TTGL doesn't even hold a candle to Eva. While its a good show in its own way. Eva is better in every way except hype. Character arcs are way better, the fights are better, the story is better, the world is better, even the animation is better. TTGL had a lot of hype, but Eva is still one of the most regularly discussed anime. And has become required viewing for any anime fan.

>>153360524
TTGL has the better, harsher message.

>>153354255
Was this good?

>>153362512
No.

>>153354255
neither

Depends on quality, really. Solid animation, good characterization and an engaging story are enough to get me invested.

>>153354255
The first

>>153354255
I would normally say more experimental and trippy. Except for the fact that I hated every single episode of NGE.

Really what I prefer are shows that don't purport to be bigger than they actually are. NGE and Cowboy Bebop ("a genre unto itself" it claims) both have huge egos. But only one successfully pulls it off.
