Despite using the most | common typefaces, you can recognize the card titles as the | "Evangelion Art Style" despite only using fonts, copywriting and | layout as design elements. | | Plus I love how Evangelion falls into a middle of exaggerated UIs | to have the "hacker look" of /r/itsaunixsystem/, and at the same | an amazing level of detail that make sense in their own world. | | Like when MAGI it's being hacked by the Computer Angel or SEELE, | you can see they use a form of assembly and a Unix System to | fight it. | | And then, the MAGI system by itself it's an amazing use of | redundant architecture with 3 computers that should have the same | output. That a system that it's resistant to data corruption, but | at the same time working as an GAN AI. | | Amazing to think this it's from the 90s, and the most amazing | part that those details are just 1% of what makes evangelion | interesting. | downrightmike wrote: | Eureka 7 hits like this in parts, once you get past the first | bits, you get to see the reality the world is built on. | Claude_Shannon wrote: | Is NGE worth watching for someone who never was really into | anime? The only animated thing I've watched in ages was Arcane, | but that's completly different style that NGE. | ajford wrote: | As a long-time fan of NGE, I'd say yes. | | It's got a fair bit of the classic "teens in mechs" tropes to | it, but there's definitely more to it under the hood, and it's | universe is rather well put together in my opinion. | | I'd try to walk into it without focusing on it being animated | though. It's cinematography like anything else, it's just a | different medium and a different style that makes use of the | flexibility it's medium provides. | Claude_Shannon wrote: | I grew in a environment where admitting to even thinking | about watching anything anime was like a social suicide. Only | in high school it changed. I just can't help but treat | everything anime related as childish (and I know that genre | has some problems, with, uhh... fan service). | | Thank you, I will. The only thing I know about NGE is that | ending(?) song, Komm Susser Tod. | ajford wrote: | I luckily got into anime right on the verge where it became | more socially acceptable (late 90s early 2000s). Also, I | grew up in an area where the dominant local culture was | more accepting of anime since Dragon Ball Z, Gundam (of | some flavor), and Saint Seya were all localized into | Spanish and popular with my age group. | | The more off the beaten path animes like NGE, Hellsing, | etc. didn't become as popular until a few years later when | I hit high-school. | mas-ev wrote: | I'd recommend watching it with subtitles. If you don't like | subs after the first episode or two then go for dub. Once you | get to episode 25 & 26, you could choose to watch the End of | Evangelion movie instead. | | Episodes 25 and 26 are very abstract and rushed due to initial | production budget. EoE is a more watchable ending to the | series. | | If you're craving more after that! The plot continues with the | four Rebuild of Evangelion movies on Amazon prime video. | superfamicom wrote: | Lots of good comments from the last time this was posted too: | | https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21323736 | Pxtl wrote: | I think so many people focus on the personal emotional journey of | Shinji and the horror of the Evas, it's so easy to miss how good | NGE is at things like this. | | Personally what surprised me on re-watch and through the rebuild- | series is how much emphasis there is on the beauty of industry | itself - so many scenes of machinery on landscapes. This is | particularly notable with Ramiel, the beam-weapon octohedron - in | the original series they explain that the weapon to defeat it | will require all of the electrical power in Japan. In the | rebuild, they make the effort of "we have to build electrical | equipment to get all the power in Japan into one spot for a few | seconds, and we have to do this in like a day or two" feel real | and amazing. | | As much as Evangelion is a story about isolation and loneliness, | visually there's a sort of celebration of industrial civilization | - especially the rebuild. Not just individuals, but kind of a | "together look what we can achieve" thing. In most other series, | the images of machinery and industrial equipment weaponry splayed | out over beautiful mountain landscapes and put to task would be | dystopian... but in Evangelion, the artists instead make it | heroic. | | The original series has this too - everybody _loves_ the | machinery of Tokyo 3, even poor Shinji, it 's just amped up in | the rebuild. | quacked wrote: | The coloring, fonts, monsters, sets, and UIs of NGE are so | pleasing to look at. | | I hold NGE in much higher regard than other similar IPs, and | would continue to do so even without the excellent art direction. | Like many other stories, NGE asks "what would happen if a young | boy with an unusual ability was entrusted with the saving of | humanity?" However, unlike many other stories, the show answers | "he would fail, be driven insane in the process, and humanity | would fall." | dclowd9901 wrote: | Finishing 3.0+1.0, I was met with the same realization. The | story is a bit Lord of the Flies with giant mecha, and I think | it's unexpected because we're used to seeing protagonists in | media being young people who are far more emotionally and | psychologically developed than they have any right being. The | trope leads you to believe it's going to be one kind of show, | but it ends up as something very different. | | FLCL, which I'm sure most Eva fans have seen, follows a similar | conceit about the ineptitude of kids to cope with circumstances | beyond their understanding, and is another show that I hold in | similarly high regard. Incidentally, it also references Eva a | lot. | danbolt wrote: | I remember reading an interview with Yoshikazu Yasuhiko, the | character designer for the 1979 _Mobile Suit Gundam_ on the | idea. Him and the interview noticed a bit of a trend along | the lines "the larger and more powerful the robot, the more | vulnerable and neurotic the child inside is". | teraflop wrote: | And it's not just mecha anime that does this, either. | | https://twitter.com/curewiki/status/1180163641070346240 | surye wrote: | FLCL was created by much of the same team as NGE, so that | makes sense! | p_l wrote: | Back in ~2000 when FLCL was fresh, a common quote was that | FLCL was NGE team (and Production IG's EoE team) taking a | very necessary step into absurd, to decompress from having | worked on NGE. | willis936 wrote: | FLCL was a collaboration of Gainax (who made NGE) and | Production IG. | | Also, I feel that FLCL is a more true coming of age story | than a commentary on teenage psychology. You're taken along | for the ride too, so the viewer can connect on multiple | levels if they're also coming of age. That's in part why I | enjoyed it so much as a teen. | downrightmike wrote: | I love Production IG for Ghost in the Shell SAC. Too bad | the new series is so hollow and no real substance. | jasonwatkinspdx wrote: | I hear that. The older GiTS really took its audience | seriously. I mean a finale scene that's a conversation | about Jameson and similar theories? Heady stuff for an | anime. The original movie is one of my all time favorites | because it hits such a poignant mood, and it's portrayal | of a Hong Kong that's ravaged by climate change and | technological advancement that isn't utopic was prophetic | imo. | | Edit: re the last sentence this is the sequence I'm | thinking of: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ARTLckN9e7I | tombert wrote: | I liked the first season of SAC, but it did kind of annoy | me how they basically decided to put Major Kusanagi in | lingerie throughout most of it. She was nude in a good | percentage of the 1995 movie, but it wasn't really | "sexualized." In SAC it kind of felt like, instead of | being a conflicted character unsure of her place in the | world, a large percentage of her character was just there | as fan service/eye candy, and I thought it cheapened her | as a result. | p_l wrote: | SAC and 1995 movie effectively base on different chapters | of the first manga volume (all of them avoiding certain | bits though, like Major's "on the side" enterprise), and | the character design used in both matches the source | material - just different scenes (SAC arguably follows | the design more closely) | | EDIT: to make it clearer, Major's clothing choices in | Manga were definitely her own and it didn't feel like | it's just random cheap sexualization, but then you have | to consider that some of the off-the-books income streams | Major had were censored from some releases, and she | definitely knew how to play off people's looks at her | (explicitly called out in GitS 2.0 manga) | tombert wrote: | I guess part of my issue is that I wasn't a huge fan of | the manga either; it felt borderline-hentai at some parts | and just wasn't my jam, I never finished it. | | The 1995 movie is easily in my top five favorite movies, | and I think a large part of it was because I liked that | _specific_ version of her character. | | > Major's clothing choices in Manga were definitely her | own and it didn't feel like it's just random cheap | sexualization | | I mean, I guess? These are fictional characters, so these | depictions are still _created_ by people. Yes, it 's the | character's decision in-universe, but it's still the | author's decision to put her in situations that require | her to be in skimpy outfits. | | I don't mean to come off as super social-justicey, I | guess I just never really liked the trope in anime of | every female character being hyper-sexualized. | p_l wrote: | Ah, I meant it in the sense that Major, compared to | many... other creations even from the same time, felt | more punk/counterculture in that approach, fitting also | with how Section 9 pretty much didn't give a crap about | things like dress code (other than poor boss needing a | suit for meeting other suits) | tombert wrote: | FLCL was one of those shows I hated the first time I | watched it at age 19, but I also got a vibe that there | might be some subtext and metaphors that I missed. About a | year later, I saw that it was on Netflix and decided to | give it a second chance. | | I'm glad I did, because it's become one of my favorite | animes at this point. I think a lot of the veiled | references to erections and the analogies strangeness of a | 14-year-old-boy forcing his way through puberty were lost | on me the first time, and it took until I wasn't a teenager | anymore to step back and view it in an almost "nostalgic" | sense. | | NOTE: I have only seen the first six-episode run of it. I | can't speak to the newer reboot series that came out in | 2016. | KennyBlanken wrote: | If it makes you feel any better, I saw FLCL at twice your | age and only now that you've said it did I realize what | the whole forehead-robot-bulge thing was a reference to. | coldpie wrote: | I'm glad to hear it. I last watched it around a similar | time (15 years ago... ... ...) and was wondering if it'd | hold up to a rewatch. | glandium wrote: | Never watched them, but two new seasons were produced | recently. | mftb wrote: | > "he would fail, be driven insane in the process, and humanity | would fall." ...and since that is the obvious conclusion, it | makes for a truly awful ending. The last 3 or 4 episodes of NGE | are interminable. There are some truly exceptional things in | NGE, but it's flawed. | whymauri wrote: | The movie saves it for me. Like, I appreciate the last 3 | episodes of NGE from a 'psychoanalysis of the writer' POV, | but the real entertainment is in the catharsis of End of | Evangelion. | bsanr2 wrote: | I highly recommend you watch the End of Evangelion and Rebuild | movies if you get a chance. Ultimately, I think Eva is | ambivalent about the _value_ of saving the world, far and away | from the ability to do so. By the end of 3.0+1.0, Shinji | essentially HAS saved the world, except that that 's not the | important victory. In the end, Eva doesn't care about | canonicity, and it barely cares about narrative. It's instead | more interested in characters, and their relationships to each | other and the world they inhabit. Everything else is malleable | to produce interesting dynamics between each actor. It's | fascinating in how experimental it is, and not just because it | superficially upends assumptions about how stories should play | out. | herodoturtle wrote: | This comment needed a spoiler tag. | | Too late to edit it now I guess. | Taywee wrote: | It's not really a spoiler. Shinji has such intense self-doubt | and psychological pain from the very beginning. It doesn't | really broadside you with him being unable to cope with the | pressure of the world's salvation at the end or anything, | it's a continual theme throughout the entire series starting | at episode 1. | KennyBlanken wrote: | This anime has been out for longer than many HN readers have | been alive and it's extremely well known. | | I think the calendar on spoiler tags being necessary for NGE | has long, long since expired. | qybaz wrote: | I hadn't watched it and it was on my TODO list, but | whatever. | Lammy wrote: | That's barely a spoiler. You should still watch it :) | filoleg wrote: | Gotta be careful though, because while NGE indeed feels way | past the expiration date on spoilers, the Rebuild movies | definitely aren't (the final one came out just earlier this | year). And people online definitely like to bring up | Rebuild movie spoilers in conversations about NGE. Mostly | due to how very inter-connected, yet, at the same, | disconnected NGE and Rebuild movies are from each other. | | TL;DR: agreed on no need to be afraid to spoil NGE, but we | gotta be explicit that it applies only to NGE (+the end of | evangelion movie, which is the true ending to the show that | is absolutely a must-watch; also imo past the expiration | date on spoilers), and not to Evangelion as a whole (which | would include recent Rebuild movies). But there is no harm | in putting a spoiler warning at the beginning, and that's a | nice gesture towards those who might want to watch it for | the first time without the storyline being spoiled. | jasonwatkinspdx wrote: | Yeah, I was part of an anime club in the 90s where the main guy | was importing laserdiscs from Japan, downloading fansubs, and | generating subtitles with an amiga. So we watched NGE as it | came out, and it was such a perfectly executed troll. It starts | out as yet another anime mecha fantasy, and by the end of it is | showing you what that world would be like if it was actually | real in a very adversarial way. | | I remember when we watched the finale (the first version) one | of the members of the anime club lost his cookies so hard he | stood up and screamed a rant and walked out of the house in a | state of rage. | [deleted] | oneoff786 wrote: | I find this funny because now it's pretty much just NGE, a | deconstruction, and Gurren Lagaan (sp?) that have maintained | significant cultural appeal in western audiences imo. As | anime has gotten more mainstream, the original mecha shows | have not. | | Somewhat similar for magical girls in Madoka Magica and Kill | la Kill. | Pxtl wrote: | Yep. It's funny how so many anime follow this sort of | "tropy premise with backstory strip-tease" formula, where | they start out in a well-worn theme, but then gradually | reveal a dark backstory. Madoka Magica is the absolute | pinnacle of the form, each new revelation being as | staggering as the last, and yet it never feels opaque and | cryptic like Evangelion, and it all makes perfect sense | together at the end. | | Trigun is another show that does it well. It's a sci-fi | western that slowly reveals the origins of the hero and the | villain and the philosophical underpinnings of their | conflict, as well as the miserable desert planet all the | characters live on. | | Elfenlied does the same with harem animes, but nobody | should ever watch Elfenlied. | bsanr2 wrote: | Can't forget Utena, the proto-Madoka. It IS as cryptic | and opaque as Evangelion, while covering similar ground | as (but also completely different ground from) PMMM. It | also stands in opposition to Madoka in that it seems | almost immune to ongoing commercialization: Rebellion and | Magia Record, in its multiple forms, exist, but beyond | Adolescence Apocalypse (perhaps in part because of | Adolescence Apocalypse), Utena is probably one of the | most popular magical girl franchises (very, very few | anime have had as much written about it) to never be | further capitalized on - and avoids thematic sliding in | the process (looking at you, Precure). | avhon1 wrote: | Ender's Game, too. [spoilers follow] To ensure that the young | boy entrusted with the saving of humanity succeeds before he | goes insane, the adults spend years (at least a decade), and | incredible amounts of money and political power, to manipulate | and deceive him and his cohort so that they don't understand | the gravity of what they're doing. | | > "You had to be a weapon, Ender. Like a gun, like the Little | Doctor, functioning perfectly but not knowing what you were | aimed at. We aimed you. We're responsible. If there was | something wrong, we did it." | | > "Tell me later," Ender said. His eyes closed. | | > Mazer Rackham shook him. "Don't go to sleep, Ender," he said. | "It's very important." | | > "You're finished with me," Ender said. "Now leave me alone." | | The most-salient parts are _excellently_ dramatized during | tracks 9-12 of Julia Ecklar 's "Horsetamer": | | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HD6Lj0OPZAc&list=OLAK5uy_kBD... | | It's a shame Ender's Game hasn't received a quality visual | adaptation. I think Evangellion being animated helped a lot | with it being able to seriously depict children in a dark | story. | tombert wrote: | I never read the books, I only saw the Ender's Game movie | that came out like 8 years ago. I remember thinking that the | premise itself had promise, but that the movie was this | rushed, hard-to-follow piece of crap that was borderline | unwatchable. | | For years people have told me that the books in the series | are way better than the movie but I still haven't gotten | around to reading it. Maybe I should. | avhon1 wrote: | The movie was sorely disappointing, which was itself | disappointing because Ender's Game isn't at all unfilmable | (except that the main characters are all children in a | really messed-up environment). | | It really is similar to Neon Genesis Evangellion in many | respects. If NGE had existed first as a novel, it's hard to | think that the TV adaptation would be anywhere near as good | as what was actually made. | | I highly recommend the book, with almost no reservations. | It's not very long, and a very stimulating read. | | If you enjoy that one, and want to read more, then I'd | recommend reading either one or both of the immediate | sequels ( _Ender 's Shadow_ and _Speaker for the Dead_ ). | Iff you read either of those, and enjoyed it, _and_ want to | read more, then (and only then) should you concern yourself | with the trails of sequels. | henrikschroder wrote: | The first book is fantastic, in that it makes a very good | portrayal of _extremely_ intelligent children, and how | their lack of wisdom and experience allows them to be | manipulated. | | The movie completely missed this point. | RhysU wrote: | It's worth reading several of the books, if only for Jane. | | I still wish I could play the fantasy game, decades after I | read the original book last. | delecti wrote: | My advice is to not worry yourself with "books" when | considering Ender's Game. The first book is a complete | product, and it wraps up everything it needs to. | | The sequels are good too, but they're also unnecessary if | you aren't curious to experience more of the world. The | ending of Ender's Game is roughly like the slideshow | epilogue of a movie saying things like "Johnny went on to | medical school and got married". The sequels and side- | stories go into things like what happened while Johnny was | at medical school, how he met his future wife, or what | their retirement looked like, but the epilogue itself | doesn't leave you hanging on anything. | avhon1 wrote: | For sure, nobody needs to worry about reading any of the | books other than the original. The story begins, happens, | and ends, all in one not-very-long novel. | | After that novel is a whole series of novels that follow | Ender into distant futures and places, as he literally | runs from his past to keep it from defining him. The | first one, _Speaker for the Dead_ , is very recommendable | for follow-up reading. The others I would only recommend | if you've already decided that you want to read more of | the series. | | However, there is also a different set of sequels, and | the first of them is the _first_ book I would recommend | to anyone who wanted to read more: _Ender 's Shadow_. | (Like Ender's Game, it won both a Hugo award and a Nebula | award.) It takes place during the same time as Ender's | Game, but from the perspective of one of the secondary | characters. This second series of sequels generally takes | place on Earth in the time shortly after Ender's Game, | and follows Ender's siblings and the other Battle School | characters. Like the first series of sequels, I won't go | out of my way to recommend these to people who haven't | already decided they're interested in reading them. | | AS I write this comment, I learn that Orson Scott Card | has been writing prequels: a trilogy in 2012-2014 ( | _Earth Unaware_ , _Earth Afire_ , and _Earth Awakens_ ) | describing the First Formic War (which took place ~50 | years before, and is heavily referenced in, Ender's | Game), and a not-yet-complete trilogy since 2016 ( _The | Swarm_ , _The Hive_ , and the not-yet-published _The | Queens_ ), which appears to be about the actions that | were taken after the First Formic War to produce Ender. | The reviews on Goodreads are promising; I might read some | of these. | handrous wrote: | > For sure, nobody needs to worry about reading any of | the books other than the original. | | Hell, I've only read the novella, and don't really see | how it'd be improved by being extended into a full novel. | Even a short one. | garren wrote: | I don't know. I read Ender's Shadow before Ender's Game, | and felt like Shadow was a much better book. It's been a | while, but as I recall it runs parallel to Ender's Game | and goes into much more depth regarding the difficulties | and anguish Ender endures. | duskwuff wrote: | On the other hand: _Ender 's Shadow_ also introduces a | rather ridiculous and unnecessary origin story for its | central character ("Bean"), involving an evil genetic | scientist. This plot line continues through the rest of | the spinoff series. | Pxtl wrote: | Note if you do choose to pick it up: The author of Ender's | Game is highly homophobic, to the point of helping funding | the anti-gay-marriage side during the gay marriage rights | battle in 2008. | | On the other hand, it's an excellent book, and I recommend | reading it. | | I'm not telling you what to do, but personally I make it a | point to get books like that used, if not borrowed. | jasonwatkinspdx wrote: | I read the first three and have mixed feelings about them. | They're creative and well executed. The stories are | definitely captivating. But particularly in the later books | the author's religious views come out and start coloring | things in a way that personally I find a turn off. | | I feel the same way about the Honor Harrington series, | which is basically a riff on redoing Horatio Hornblower in | space. The books are quite engaging if you like the | gimmick, but the author is a conservative monarchist (in | the UK sense) and it comes through pretty strong in most of | the books. In the later ones he balances it out a bit | though, so I'd guess he's grappling with some view changes | of his own. | rscho wrote: | Yes, you should. At least the first book. Even if you don't | adhere to the philosophy/politics in the book, it's really | quite an entertaining story and it's indeed far, far better | than the movie. | tombert wrote: | I think I have had an aversion to it because I think that | Orson Scott Card is a homophobic douchebag. | | Honestly, though, if I'm going to judge the "art by the | artist", I'm afraid that a majority of the music I like | is off the table, so maybe I'm drawing a somewhat | hypocritical line on that. | rscho wrote: | Newton was a huge douche. Genius often flourishes in the | most extreme environments. | | Regarding Ender's Game, I think it includes a very good | depiction of modern American authoritarianism. | oneoff786 wrote: | It's been a while since I watched it but I felt the mechanic | deconstruction angle wasn't the main point. Yeah the kid | becomes really depressed and overwhelmed, but the conclusion | deals with him understanding a great deal on the nature of | humanity and rejecting the cynical desires of the evil cyborg | puppeteer people. Seemed rather uplifting to me. | moralestapia wrote: | NGE has always been a favorite of me because of the UIs that are | represented throughout the series.

The new | movies are sharper and brighter, but lack character. | p_l wrote: | I have yet to finish the last two movies, but I found the | first two a lot more interesting if viewed through the idea | that they actually continue from EoE (considering Kaworu's | words at the end of 2.22) | ErikVandeWater wrote: | I fully support watching the last two movies. Just the | recap movies lose so much character compared to the | original. | p_l wrote: | Oh, sure, on the first look at 1.11 it felt dangerously | close to losing a lot of the character to me - it was | 2.22 that made it work, partially because of what I | mentioned :) | Pxtl wrote: | 1.11 felt completely unnecessary to me, personally. It | didn't add anything to the original story, and took away | too much. The only real achievement for me was the final | battle, since the octohedron angel was otherwise a | forgettable villain-of-the-week episode. | | The sequels that stop tracking so close to the original | is where it takes off. I still prefer the original but it | didn't feel like a simple re-make at that point. | matheusmoreira wrote: | Evangelion uses graphical interfaces very effectively in its | story telling.

It reminds me of the striking difference between | most space travel sci-fi (in which the pilot of a | spacecraft is the captain of their vessel and can go | wherever they please) and, say, the Space Shuttle (which | required meticulous planning and a large ground support | staff for every single mission). Evangelion does a great | job of visually conveying how the pilot in the robot's | cockpit is, in part, just a focal point for the efforts | of thousands of other people. | | And then, of course, it subverts that portrayal by | revealing that (ROT13) gur Rinf jrer npghnyyl perngrq ol | na bpphyg frperg fbpvrgl hfvat napvrag nyvraf, naq abar | bs gur grpuavpvnaf be bcrengbef unir n pyhr jung gurl'er | ERNYYL pncnoyr bs. | matheusmoreira wrote: | Sometimes close examination pays off though.
