Man it just hurts rewatching this… mostly at the last few episodes and the movie. First watched it when I was 16, so I got a major nostalgia hit. The theme of accepting your past mistakes and surviving until things get better was relevant to me back then and it still is today. Its sad though because I still feel like I’m just wandering through life like a blind man even after 7 years.
Wasn’t Asuka a test tube baby?
Do “Gentlemen’s Agreement” from 1947
the question is Rei or asuka
I’m down for more anime poz buttons. There are quite a few gems out there. Plus I suspect Borzoi is a secret weeb. I am almost sure of this.
Fate/Zero
Borzoi and I should collaborate. I have a list.

Several months ago, I had to more or less tell a long time friend of mine to eat shit and fuck off. He would repeatedly get a job for a few days and quit because ‘I don’t like it’, leeched off his dad whom he lived with, would drink an 18 pack a day, if not more, constantly on drugs, physically and mentally abused his ex, and I discovered he may have been fucking around with underage individuals. He was absolutely obsessed with this show around that time and constantly insisted I watch it, which I never did beyond the… Read more »
On a somewhat tangential note, are you at all familiar with John David Ebert, Borzoi? He’s written extensively on post modernity and now what he calls hypermodernity, and has done books on scene-by-scene analysis of movies you’ve done like videodrome and apocalypse now, and some others. Anyways, he mentioned possibly doing an analysis of Flash Gordon the other day, and I know Myles said something about that too. If not for that movie, I think he’d be great for a poz button in general. Not necessarily /our guy/ but I think he’s been on JF’s show so not totally outside… Read more »
Now do another anime, I recommend Fate/Zero or anything by Gen Urobuchi.
The animation holds up very well.
Kabbalah stuff is all over anime. Sephiroth is the main villain in FF7. Have you guys ever played the Bayonetta games? You are a witch who summons demons to fight angels. The angels look very evangelion. The best anime ever made is Fullmetal alchemist. It’s basically steampunk Nazis and it’s not even subtle.
The ending of Brotherhood is also amazing from a Christian perspective.
I will shill all day everyday for people to watch Full Metal Alchemist: Brotherhood. Some annoying anime character behaviors but it’s one of only a tiny few detriments.The main villain is a tiny rapacious parasite who gains all of its power by stealing from everyone around it, and it’s opposed by, yeah, steampunk Nazis. Listen to just the opening theme as a preamble for the overall quality of the show.

There’s definitely Kabbalah elements which are also in Final Fantasy VII. There’s also a lot taken from Anima and Animus.
Is this the anime that is rooted in Kabbalah shit or am I thinking of another anime. I don’t watch the stuff. I made several attempts to get into anime with watching many irrefuted classics. I just can’t get into it
Ok so like why are the Khazar 8008 Queens featured on the art
You all missed they they pulled a switcharoo on Lilith and Adam, Kaworu points this out
also, about 2 hours in, and you missed that LCL is menstrual discharge from ‘Lilith’
everbody should watch a video called “Alex Jones explains Evangelion to Joe Rogan” its amazing
I have been looking forward to this for a while, thank you.
Tyrone, stop right here, you loli-loving autist!

hey, it worked on me
Thank you
Hope this isn’t just surface lev-152 minutes. K
The Rape of Nanking didn’t happen
Good episode. I was relieved to find that it wasn’t just you guys calling it overrated for 2 hours. You guys did the intellectual leg-work and gave a pretty rich interpretation of Evangelion. It’s why the Poz Button is my favorite.
I’ll be honest, during my first viewing it went over my head but I was a kid then. Upon a later rewatching (as often happens) my opinion on EOE and the series in general was reversed.
>Borzoi talks about how there are lots of myths about it have no budget
>Myles proceeds to claim the last few episodes were fucked due to budget
MY TISM! They were like that because OF THE AFOREMENTIONED SARIN ATTACK WHICH MESSED UP THE SCHEDULING BECAUSE THEY HAD A PLOT THAT WAS TOO SIMILAR TO BROADCAST AAAAAAAAA!!!

Neat
He better have my gnostic hot take or I swear to the lord…
Jason Jorjani provides an excellent discussion of Gnosticism brings up Evangelion in his discussion on Gnosticism in this interview: https://youtu.be/NO8pLlbCr6I

Borzoi confirmed wuhan carrier
shinji is gay and awful. no way around it. he was too caught up in his self inflicted sadness that he didnt realize that every female around him was dtf. until of course the movie where he, like a simp beta, jerked off to asuka in her hospital bed.
Dude he’s 14 and literally responsible for the fate of the world. Cut him some slack.
Also Misato is best girl and he shoulda banged her when she offered.
Misato is hot, but she’s 27 and he’s 14, also she’s used goods.
