About to start watching Neon Genesis Evangelion for the first time ever.

What should I expect, /a/?
>>
Basic character psychology, fake symbolism with lots of tryhard shit.

The soundtrack is good at least.
>>
Mecha bullshit mostly. Gets pretty brutal in parts.

Also you get to see all the bits that were stolen by every anime that came after it.
>>
And not as good as FLCL by the way.

If you aren't a teenager when you first watch it you probably wont like it. If you get mad when a story doesn't hold your hand and give you all the details you definitely wont like it.
>>
>>155599831
how the fuck do you have "fake symbolism"? Symbolism is the simplest thing ever it's impossible not to have. The American flag is a symbol for America. Having a cross in your chinese cartoon is not fake symbolism. It's just a cross. You know how many movies there are about greek or roman or norse folklore? Those movies don't have fake symbolism because they mentioned Zeus or Ragnarok. At least try and understand what you're talking about before spewing it.

I hope you know that NGE is a shounen anime.

You clearly have minimal (or more like zero) piece of idea of what symbolism really is. Your advice goes back to you. Do some research before writing bullshit.

https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/symbol

2
: something that stands for or suggests something else by reason of relationship, association, convention, or accidental resemblance; especially : a visible sign of something invisible the lion is a symbol of courage

fake symbolism would no longer be symbolism by the Merriam Webster dictionary definition of it because it would no longer stand for or suggest the subject. So fake symbolism is not symbolism, but rather, the object. So a cross in Evangelion, if not suggesting religion, would just be a normal cross. Therefore, it is impossible to have fake symbolism, since fake symbolism no longer fits its own definition.

It's pretty good just never watch episode 25/26 of the original series.

Also 3.0 is somewhat pointless and mostly serves to set up for the nonexistent fourth rebuild movie. It has lots of explosions though if you like those.

1. Wait until someone tells you to get in the robot
2. Cry and run away
3. Have a mental breakdown
4. Come back and get in the robot
5. Repeat
>>
>>155599757
A big fat "what" at the end.
Watch the movie and that "what" turns to "what the fuck"
And then after some time you'll realize that it actually had no substance and pity the time you wasted.

You're talking about the juvenile TVTropes idea of 'symbolism', not the actual artistic concept.
