E7's animation was so ahead of its time. For some episodes, you wouldn't believe it's a show from 2005.

Hopefully these movies will at the very least sustain my /w/ needs.

>>154683348
I don't know how I feel about the new mech designs. They just look more Gundam-y than Eureka Seven.

Also kept seeing red and blue ones. Ray and Charles? Fleur and Elena?

And why the fuck is there a gold Devilfish?
Actually this first one's supposed to be a prequel, right? First Summer of Love? So these're like, proto-LFOs?

Didn't people fucking hate AO? It's been a while and I remember just liking seeing the art style and music back but people really fucking despising the cast and story.

Post Eureka mom.

>>154683460
The cast is fine.

It was the story that got people. Being a convoluted mess based in time travel and alternate realities that shits all over the themes and story of the original series will do that.

>>154683460
Yes Ao basically shit on the whole point of the first series by basically saying "Dewey was right" and then had AO basically retcon himself out of existence souly to get Renton and Eureka back together without solving the original problem of human corallian hybrids turning to stone if they come into contact with trapar

>>154683426
It wasn't really ahead of its time. More than anything it was behind the times in a good way. You can actually find traditionally painted cels from the original production on sale which is unheard of for mid 00s shows. Only around 15% of animation teams were still doing traditional animation at the time, though the vast majority of the production was still digital.

Eureka Seven just doesn't suffer from the blanch gray tones a lot of early primary and full digital productions did.

>>154683521
It's from the crap movie that ended with her reverting to an infantile state.

>>154683561
At least
>a soundtrack similar to the original
will be there since they literally got the old music guy for the score and commissioned fucking Hardfloor of all things to top it off.

>>154683561
Well, the prequel setting and that first trailer appear to indicate that the proto-LFOs use backpacks rather than surfboards. So mechas on boards is out.

Which already contradicts the original where-in the Nirvash was the discovery which led to all advances in Trapar-based technology, and came with the surfboard making it the go-to for derivative designs.

Soundtrack should still be good at least?

>>154683588
god damn thats nostalgic

>>154683537
Based purely on the premise I actually like Ao more, but they spent too much time on the emotional drama and not enough time on the sci-fi theory crafting and not enough time with sky surfing robots.

That finale animation wise was far better than Ao deserved for the clunky way they meandered around while delaying any deliverance of plot. Goddamn though that was a great final sequence just for the spectacle.

E7 suffers from Renton being too much of a bitch for too long, Holland being too much of a bitch for too long, Eureka being relegated to the side too quickly, and too much filler due to being a full four cour show. Tighten it to 26 episodes, fix Holland, Renton, and Eureka, and divvy up just a little more time to Anemone, Dominic, and The End and it probably would have been a far better show.

>>154683426
>>154683540

When he was talking about animation, it's not about cell. So do I. I wasn't saying cels are better than digital or vice versa, I think any kind of medium will be good in masters hands.

Also, I think we will get more young genius participating in these movies. It's true that the main animators are mostly veteran who still stick to traditional animation (paper), but I do think BONES is considering to apply digital animation in their work.

Yutapon has been experimenting with digital animation in Conrevo (especially 2nd season), so I'm expecting more digital output from him or younger generation.

I'm sure these movies will be sakugasm for us animationfags.

They could just be using the old Hawaiian mythos of how surfing happened.

For a long time stand up surfing was forbidden among the common people and they were forced to body surf or ride the board lying down. Even then the sport was invented originally through lying down until a young warrior discovered that standing up on the board gave them more control on the wave.

Hey, /a/.
If you can find any Anemone x Dominique doujin that have never been scanned, I'll track them down to scan/translate them.

Ideally safe for work stuff. But if it's cute and NSFW I'll do that, too.

>>154683592

even Ao had an amazing OST

>>154683693
>shitty Ral and Haman clones that offered nothing but being a retread of the time Amuro ran away from White Base
Nah, get rid of them.

>>154683487
This was perfect.

BONES is desperate to make E7 a franchise. They could just adapt the games though.

>>154683348
I can't remember shit from E7, I don't want to rewatch this shit just for the movies.

>>154683635
it could be manufacturing costs, mass producing giant surfboard might not have been practical for numbers of LFOs they wanted at the time so jet packs my have been a better cheaper alternative, manufacturing one bespoke made to order piece is one thing but mas manufacturing takes time and infrastructure to set up then once the assembly line is in place it takes time for the operators to gain the experience to run it full speed.

its reasonable that the first training/non elite LFOs may have had jetpacks

>>154683635
The trailer has walking mechs, flying mechs with huge V3-like backpacks and the not-Devilfishes that actually surf on trapar.

The original DID have jetpack-powered robots, although I don't remember if they did any long-distance flight.

A more suspect thing is the spacesuit design out of AO that didn't exist in E7, with the huge flower-like thing around the neck that looks more like what Vodarak monks would wear.

>>154683760
They didn't show Nirvash either so that means we're probably getting another new design. I wouldn't be surprised to find out that this is an alternate universe created in the aftermath of Ao to be perfectly honest.

>>154683725
If they could make an E7 game to the tune of a fucking FAST Armored Core game I'd double down on it

x4subs has 12.
Coal girls has 22.

>>154684040
You're forgetting though that it's also an alternate universe essentially. If we were following the original timeline the Devilfish units shouldn't even show up.

This is weird. When is this? If this is when Eureka was still in the military, she would have a different uniform.
Why are there ground units? I thought all mechs in E7 only were invented after the discovery of LFOs.
Why does the space suit look like it's from AO? That's not how it should look. Where is it even, that requires Eureka to be in a space suit?

The Devilfish itself has no reason not to be there, it's an old model. The Devilfish on a ref board and the ref boosters on the grunts contradict TR1 but TR1 is questionable canon anyways.

There's always been ground mechs in Eureka Seven, why do you think they all have wheels?

>>154684249
>It looks like a less organic version of Anemone's, seriously what the fuck is wrong with you?
Well nobody except Anemone wore anything like that, even piloting or going to space. In fact, piloting usually didn't require any special suits for anybody.

>>154684238
>At least, they will live.
Setting the bar pretty low there.

I think we shouldn't forget how RahXephon fucked up the ending in the movie. The anime's ending was straight forward, with the MC changing history so he and his waifu never parted. The movie, however, added some shit about him having to disappear, but her still having memories as if he didn't or some retarded nonsense like that.

If it happened to RahXephon, it could happen to Eureka 7, particularly considering how badly they screwed up AO.

It's actually one of the design things in Eureka Seven that the more advanced later model KLFs that show up are the ones that don't have a vehicle mode for ground combat because they were specifically designed for aerial combat.

>The films will follow The First Summer of Love phenomenon that occurred a decade before the first Eureka Seven series. The anime franchise thus far has hinted at, but never depicted in full, "the beginning of it all." The films will then have the same basic story as the first Eureka Seven series, but will have an original ending. It will have completely re-recorded lines, redone footage, and new scenes.

So did AO get retconned out of existence yet? I don't know why they couldn't just leave this series alone. But then the movie and manga come along and pull the typical Japanese melodramatic and bittersweet ending instead of the happy and fulfilling one we originally got.

Fortunately those can be written off as non canon adaptations, but AO was supposed to be a direct sequel to the original. Not only is the story a clusterfuck, it shits on Eureka and Renton's happiness, and completely goes against the entire message E7 spent 50 or so episodes trying to get across. I will never stop being mad that every time I fondly think of E7, AO pops into my head too.

>>154698025
AO originally ended with the revelation that life sucked for Eureka and Renton after the ending, and after massively butt-fucking the time stream to try and fix it, Ao volunteered to do it instead, letting his parents return to happy lives while he set the time stream back to a peaceful state, ending with him basically writing himself out of existence, at last landing in a world that would have no memory of him once done.

Basically, it made the entire series of AO completely pointless.
More recently we got a final episode which fixed THIS to be mostly the same, but with Ao landing in a world which DOES remember him at the end.

Also Truth-Nirvash turns Gold for... some reason.

>>154689007
Aofag? There were at least 20 anons participating in the delusion threads iirc. Most of them left this board/died/just don't care anymore, though.

I'll be honest, I normally hate any kind revival or re-iteration on old IPs like this. E7 is one of my all time favorite anime and Anemone is my wife. I have adored the seires (an Anemone!) since I was a young tween.

But AO was fucking vial and hearing this kind of news makes me very apprehensive. Hearing it's a movie in particular doesn't inspire confidence because of how shit, and I speculate deliberately shit, Pocket Full of Rainbows was.

At the same time though, if it gives me any more Anemone in my life, I'm sorry, I am not a proud man, I will take what I can get. Will it be shit? Signs point to yes since everything related to E7 done after the original series has been (movie, manga, AO). Will I watch and likely rewatch anyways? That just can't be helped.

Watch them shit on Anemone and Dominic's happy ending too. They were the best couple in E7 and that final scene where they reunite was top fucking tier. I even teared up a bit when I first watched it back then.

Has anyone subbed or at least translated it yet, I dunno if they even fully remember him, just that Fleur and new Elena were crying tears of joy seeing him again (or for the first time in Elena's case).

>>154698888
Not him but I'm the very first episode Renton jumps off a cliff and flies off into battle on a refboard after shouting "I CAN FLY".
Eureka Seven at its core was always a series about believing in yourself and growing up to face challenges.

>>154683487

i hated her underdog champion look, literally JUST tier.

it's a shame it was the longest used design in the show.

>>154700431
And that is certainly doing it well
But when the Nirvash, the resident magic robot, activates its "fuck your shit" mode (called a Seventh Swell) on 3 or more occasions to bail the cast out of a mess I think deus ex machina can rightly be leveled against the show. The finale does is the biggest use of the magical robot's magic of all, and therefor the biggest deus ex machina

>not paying any attention

As is usually the case when someone cries deus ex machina. The trigger for the Seventh Swell is foreshadowed very early on. "Amita" itself is a massive hint but it's understandable that it would fly over a noneducate.

Your dumbass complaint boils down to magic = deux ex machina, because it certainly isn't unforeshadowed. Sucks for you, not being able to enjoy most anime because special powers trigger you.

For me it was around the whale monster episode.

>>154703116
It's not particularly bad storytelling either, mind you. Just seems really fucking stupid to complain about magic in a show that doesn't even try to pass itself off as realistic.

>>154700944
Seventh Swell isn't a dexm, it is the result of something else rather than a random occurrence.

It's literally activated by character development. It is done several times throughout the series, so it is something crucial to the plot rather than a random occurrence.

A dexm would be a meteor destroying the threat at the last second. I apologize for mentioning AO but I rewatched it earlier this year:
Imagine it's episode 1 or 2 or whenever the first fight happens, and AO is an idiot and leading the thing to the thing, but instead of him being saved as a way to introduce key characters, suddenly a meteor comes out of nowhere and kills the thing.

A dexm is considered a bad plot device because it adds nothing despite being radical, thus if there is a reason or benefit from something occurring, it cannot be a dexm.

Pretty sure the reception on AO was that it was mediocre and nowhere near the WORST ANIME EVAR like E7fags make it out to be and much like the original nobody cares outside Kyoda.

I always found it extremely boring most of the time with some terrible characters.

I like E7 for the mecha action and OST first. I got it with E7, I even got with AO and I will get much more than ever before in even higher quality with those new movies and I couldn't care less of AO's shitty plot or E7's terrible pacing.
Give me the mechs, give the missile circus, that's all I want, because that's the only thing the series was good at.

Renton is annoying because he thinks that will impress Eureka, and Eureka is depressed and functionally autistic at the time so it just makes things worse.

Then she tries to kill herself. Are you saying this is somehow uncalled for? I think the cave arc was genius. Every episode except the shared hallucination, which was just really poorly executed, was great.

>>154711924
I don't know exactly why, but the cave arc was the only part of the series that I actually disliked.

>>154712129
How can you call yourself an Eureka 7 fan if you don't even know where granny Anemone made her debut?

>>154711975
Why? It was great. It not only revealed what LFOs and Eureka are, but linked them. There's Renton helping the old man, only to be kidnapped because the old man wants to show his son that he isn't a failure. This is one of the most important scenes in the series for Renton. There's probably something else I'm forgetting.

I honestly think disliking this arc is equivalent to disliking the Ray/Charles arc, or the Earth arc.

I honestly don't see how anybody can dislike any episode except the hallucination episode, and maybe the prank episode.

>>154711352
I was rewatching the show this week and the first episode opens with Stoner talking about memories and where they exist and then in the next two episodes we have the amita drive and seven swell which are introduced as major plot points and both carry on this sci-fantasy/metaphysical aspect that the series would carry on with.
Besides why would you expect them to lay it all out on the table on episode 1?
These aspects of a story are the kind that are gradually developed.
If they had explained scubs,Renton's dad, sevenswell, LFOS, and corallians in the first few episodes there would've been nothing left to work through but the SoL/romance elements.

Eureka Seven was the first anime I sat down and watched seriously (as in, not just catching something on and off on CN or Toonami or Adult Swim).

No matter what I'll watch the films.

Maybe we'll get more Ray and Charles.

Also, maybe new movies will mean new shit for me to buyfag, because there's little - and little good - for the original series.

>>154712370

Ray and Charles are already confirmed. You see their mechs.

Best episode was the soccer episode.

>>154711041
E7 began airing in mid 2005. That's pretty damn old.
>>154712327
I liked it but I can see why somebody would think it is pointless to have a sudden break in plot so early in the series.

There are also people that just dislike the first two cours in general.

jesus christ bedford's going to have a heart attack. is this bones?

>>154712397
I somehow missed it.

Considering we don't see Renton, but we do see his dad, is this possibly what happened "before" the series (even if parts 2 and 3 of the movies don't follow the tv series exactly)?

Seems like another case of BONES milking my favorite series to produce something that kind of sucks.

>>154712459

I mean, you don't see them specifically, but you see a red and blue mech, so it's implied.

And yeah, it's set before the series during the first summer of love. IE the thing that fucked up Ray.

>>154711924
>>154712253
The problem with the cave arc was its pacing and its location in the story.

Was it important and, overall, good? Yes.

But it felt at least an episode too long, and because of its necessity as a build up towards Renton leaving the crew it was a very slow burn, after a series of quick/fun oneshot episodes. Worst still, it was immediately followed by the Ray/Charles arc - a fan favorite and one that is both quicker and harder hitting.

Cave arc is a casual filter, in /v/ language.

>>154712414
I always had a soft spot for the fake Cuba episode, where Renton finds his old mech toy.

Since this is an AU, what are the odds that Ray and Charles will make it through without dying?

>>154712582
About the same they get to have a kid of their own. None ;_;

I liked that farmer episode with his brain dead wife

It was very tranquil and offered a peace of mind

>>154712582
Unless they take things totally different and the two are redeemed (or forgive Holland/Daddy Thurston) I can't imagine that they'll make it out alive.

Their death was an important turning point for just about everyone in the crew.

>>154712548
Interesting. We'll get Merc Eureka and finally get to see why everyone loves Renton's dad.

Also, maybe some more of Renton's qt onee-san

If you got a e7 sequel what would you want it to be? I'm a little disappointed if this will be a au/prequel type thing, I wanted a SoLwith them renton and eureka doing couple things which is also what I want from CG's S3

What the hell was this series even about, other then being a vicarious NGE clone

>>154712760
>I wanted a SoLwith them renton and eureka doing couple things
I mean I could see this being a short or something, but it would be a waste of a season.

You guys realize that this is basically Rebuild of Eureka Seven, right?

>>154712785

They aren't related at all.

>>154712802
I don't think so, I mean I doubt they're gonna diverge as much as Eva did.
They've already stated that for now the most major change coming is the ending.
I don't think they'll change much between, but who knows, it'll be interesting.

>The trilogy will again feature the two protagonists of the first TV anime series, Renton Thurston and Eureka, but will also introduce the "First Summer of Love" incident that occurred 10 years before the TV anime story and was never directly illustrated in it. The site says that it will not be a remake or a remix, and all dialogues will be reconstructed. With newly filmed and produced footage, the trilogy will show a totally new ending "nobody has ever known."

10 years before the original story means Renton was like 4, but because Eureka ages differently and was born an adolescent it makes sense I guess.

I'm honestly very excited. These will probably make my next 3 years.
>>154712582
They would have to butcher the arc for them not to die. They had to die.
>Ray and Charles DON'T have to capture Eureka (or whatever else they were hired to do)
This means the parental bonding loses all of its impact. Both the bonding and their death is needed for Renton.

>>154712785
Human invaders trying to find a way to coexist with alien natives.

>>154712760
I'd like couple-stuff to happen within the series, but the world of E7 is interesting and there's a lot to do, especially with such a large cast.

I'd rather focus on the eventual race to re-colonize the newly opened Earth.

A boy meets a girl and her pet, he travels with her weird family across the world, but then leaves them to live with their weird cousins.
Then he returns, but the girl is now sick and he spends the rest of the series trying to find a cure.
Also her pet disappears at the end

Agreed, anon. Now I have a real excuse not to kill myself for the next 3 years. Even if they're shit, I'm a sucker for Renton and Eureka.

At least the first one covers the Summer of Love. I always wished they'd delve a little more into that in the series. I suppose the main characters will be Eureka and Adroc?

>Biomecha piloted by a beta MC, an alien girl, and a complex ridden red haired girl while trying to uncover the mystery of the aliens invading their world.

Bonus points for the aliens having some weird hive-mind reality where dead humans can live.

The difference is that everybody gets a happy end and doesn't get slaughtered ala EoE

P.S.

Gets a sequel everybody thought they wanted until they got it

>>154712552
It was supposed to feel slow, it's a massive realization. Rushing through that is ridiculous.

It couldn't have been located at anywhere else in the series.
>Renton is annoying because he thinks that will impress Eureka, and Eureka is depressed and functionally autistic at the time so it just makes things worse.
The cave arc happens after Eureka loses her connection to Nirvash while Renton starts getting good at piloting it (her?)

I remember watching it while it was airing, it was surreal and shocking.
>>154712785
The series has a lot of allusions to older mecha series, including NGE. It is in no way a NGE clone. It's so much better than NGE, too.

>>154713060

1. He's not beta.
2. Rei is a clone, not an alien girl.
3. Anemone was never a team mate. She was an antagonist the entire series.
4. It's not 'aliens invading their world'. It's 'humans in an alien world'. Christ you're dumb.

So the exact same twist as NGE

>>154713060
And NGE was Ultraman with pilotable robots.
And all shonen fighting anime is clones of each other.
If you want, you can reduce anything to comparable blocks.
NGE didn't have Greg Bear inspiration, it didn't have surfing culture and acid trance music, it was focused on entirely different things!
Yeah, of course Eureka referenced NGE from time to time, because NGE was such a formative work that everybody knew and loved, but what it did with itself is so completely different, it's hard to compare it to any one work that preceded it. There's some Nadia, some NGE, some Gundam (different ones, too), among several other things. It's not so much derivative as it is a result of the environment it was created in.

>>154713249

Except fucking not. Evangelion was aliens invading a human world.

You can break anything down into little bits in order to make it feel like something else, but that doesn't make it so. Each of the parts you mention has a very different use and execution than its counterpart in NGE.

>Beta MC
Renton man's up at least 2 or 3 times in the series, even though he does act like a kid (at times when it makes sense). He's a good middle ground between normal shounen mech MCs and Shinji.

>Alien girl
Hybrid sent by the aliens themselves, not a fucked up clone made by humans. Also, the purpose was certainly more peaceful than Rei was supposed to be.

>Complex red head
Anemone and Asuka have nothing in common besides their taste for action.

>Aliens invading
Other way around this time.

>Hive mind reality
Functionally different from the Sea of Souls/LCL soup. E7's is a pocket dimension coexisting with the humans (for a time). The latter is entirely different.

>>154713013
They're gonna have to condense this a lot.
But I think that they're gonna use the first movie to see if E7 is still profitable, and if it is they'll pull an Evangelion and add a 4th film.
Because if this movie covers only the first summer of love then that means we have 2 more movies to get through E7's story.
>Bellforest arc
>random episodic period with an overarching story in the background
>vodarac introduction arc
>I think next comes the cave arc
>renton runs away and meets Ray and Charles arc

>I forgot what happens, but Dewey starts doing keikaku
>The farting monk leads them to some other corallian girl
>Nirvash needs to be rebuilt
>Corallian attack arc
>Earth reveal Arc
>Ending
They're gonna have to cut a lot or make the movies 2 hours long each if they wish to fit in some of E7's story and give it a new ending.
But who knows, maybe they'll cut Ray and Charles outside some cameos, or maybe they'll go a completely new route.

>>154713060
What red-haired girl? Anemone does not have red hair and is genuinely much more complex than Asuka, and I am an Asukafag.
Renton isn't beta. He's a surfer who is just a bit awkward because of his fame.
The aliens are not invading, they are the world. They're the breath of the world, while the earth of their ancestors is alien.
Dead humans don't live in the hivemind, humans have to be assimilated.
>>154713214
It absolutely was.

The only major faults in it are the hallucination episode, which still has some redeeming factors, and the fact that every OP was lazily done despite mostly being stills, existing footage, and the like.

>>154713214
not him but I don't like comparing NGE to E7 because they have different focuses.
NGE was criticizing its characters and audience, but E7 was a more traditional story with themes contained within its setting.

I HAVE A QUESTION

Is Dai Sato in on this? Because he chose to do Mine Fujiko instead of AO and we all know how that turned out.

>>154713472
Yes

>>154713356
But the first and last OPs were amazing. Days is still one of my all time favorites.

>>154713523
He's probably talking about the animation. It was kinda lazy, especially in OP3, like holy shit.

>>154713440
I struggle to remember anything NGE like other than the Riders High sequence, unless general mindfuck imagery from the dimensional stuff counts.

>>154713325
I'm going to have to assume that they're deliberately aiming for a new story. We might hit some of the same plot points and arcs, but as you said, fitting 50 episodes into 2 movies simply isn't going to work. It's impossible.

>>154713472
According to /m/, yes. Whether that's a good thing or not is up to debate.

>>154713354
It's a real shame very little else by BONES has had the same kind of build up and pay off. Cave arc to Ray/Charles arc to Sky Reunion, all to end the first season, was masterful.

>>154713552
E7 is Sato's baby. I have to believe he's up to the task.

Even if one considers Eureka a Rei expy - and she certainly began as one - very few other Rei expies (few other characters in general) go through so much character development, or end up like Eureka.

>>154713523
The OPs were great, the EDs too. The issue is, all of them are very lazy save for OP1 and maybe 2.

Especially the EDs, holy shit.

>>154713551
people only compare the two because post-eva a lot of mecha designers started experimenting with organic designs as well so this combined with the newborn fascination with dding religious elements to anime lead to everything being compared to Eva.

>>154713655
Eureka was only like Rei pre-series. We'll see more of what she was like before adopting the kids in the first movie.

She's honestly just a bit autistic in the first cour. Rei never laughs, or feels scared, or do anything that isn't rational and expected until the very end. Eureka's first impression is crashing into his room and then burning the ruins with a flamethrower.

People that think Eureka was a reiclone haven't even seen the series and are only making the comparison because they're both nonhuman and have blue hair.

>>154713551
Man the rider's high part freaked me out. That was some heavy shit.

So can we assume the soccer match AKA most blatant filler episode of all time won't make it into these movies?

>>154713677

>>154713833

>>154713833
I always liked it, but its certainly not the most interesting, animation wise.

All of the OPs and EDs, musically, are wonderful. They're just not all the most neat or visually striking.

>>154713777

As much as I agree with you, the comparison has been around for the 10 years that the show's been around. It's hard to stop people from comparing the two characters, even if it's not correct.

>>154713917
They'll be justified in making the comparison once the first movie comes out, because all evidence of her behavior then is that of a reiclone.
Don't enable this mindset, it just leads to people thinking by extension that the entire series is a NGE clone.

>>154713354
Honestly, I don't get people who complain about those episodes existing. The reunion moment is incredibly cathartic precisely because they went through all that shit first.

Everyone fucking up is what leads them to get better. Eureka being a cold jealous cunt to Renton is what leads the Nirvash to tell her to go fuck herself, prompting her to take a massive risk entirely out of her own will for once in her life instead of just following orders. Holland being a collosal fucking manchild is what leads him to hit rock bottom and come to terms with the fact that he's a colossal fucking manchild, and remarking on the importance the arc had for Renton is redundant.

I especially liked the contrast between Ray & Charles being lovely yet kind of awful people who happily went along with the government's abuses, whereas Holland was an unlikable asshole but did have a better moral compass.

ED4 is visually striking, I think.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mBgoDAjqQgI
I've heard people complain that the cour feels rushed and makes no sense, which is ridiculous. Music, revolutionaries, and war go hand-in-hand and have in mecha anime since the beginning, to varying degrees.
ED4 is the only ED that actually fits visually.

Thankfully it'll probably have her finding the little brats, which will give her a moral and emotional kickstart then and there.

Hell no. Evangelion had much stronger character writing, direction and themes present even if the actual plot was sparse what it had to say was much more memorable than anything in E7.

Biggest problem with E7 is how weak the writing throughout the show is which becomes a clustertfuck the more it goes on like they were just making shit up as they went along and try as they must Renton and Eureka weren't compelling leads.

Maybe you should've paid more attention. There's one thing that's fudged in the story and it is the explanation of underlying physics of scub's world and why it works like it does, everything else is properly set up and presented if you just keep out an open eye.

I mean, NGE requires attention and all sorts of commentary to fully understand, because Anno was too committed to le suffering to also work with setting he made himself, surely that is a clusterfuck.
