the show is worth watching the end is not worth watching

>>23790831
No.
Go outside for a walk at night instead. You're 100% guaranteed to find more interesting things to look and it'll be way more fulfilling.

this OP. do this AFTER watching NGE

>>23790930
I know what you're getting at and if you found anything in NGE to be life-change or altering you need to kill yourself.
Like, right now.

>>23790935
it's not that deep bro

It'd probably be worth it if it was 1 cour, 2 is kinda too much. 10 hours is an awful long time to say

You don't actually appreciate NGE
You should watch both the last episodes AND EoE

>>23790831
Yes, its originality is somewhat overrated but its influence and stature are undeniable, and its new wave aesthetics are artful enough to be worth it. There are two continuities for the show's OG run; the relation between them is still debated a little but I think that's to do with lingering translation issues more than anything else imo. Working on it.

Original TV broadcast:
Episodes 1-26

Theatrical 'alternate' ending:
Episodes 1-20, Director's Cut Episodes 21'-24', End Of Evangelion 25'-26'

The theatrical continuity is denoted by apostrophes after the episode number

Director's Cut episodes only add stuff to set up things for the 25'-26' theatrical ending, they don't remove thinge or significantly contradict the original broadcast ending

25'-26' theatrical finale has been formatted a number of ways over the years; the most "ultimate" version is known as Revival Of Evangelion aka Death(true)^2 + 25' + 26', Death(true)^2 is an extended recap/montage thing with a few new elements but isn't strictly necessary, just adds to the experience
Death + Rebirth was released as a work-in-progress preview of the above so can be ignored

So on a first watch:
Episodes 1-20, Director's Cut Episodes 21'-24', Death(true)^2 (optional), End Of Evangelion, then 25-26 to see what you're missing out on from the original TV broadcast ending
This is the easiest way to cover everything, but it pays to understand you're jumping between two different proposals for the show's ending

Then there's the Rebuild movies
1.11
2.22
3.333
3.33+1.11
Which have ab acceptable thematic arc imo but are poorly written compared to the OG series, like most people say, so it's up to you if you want to bother

>>23795122
Also, the best version to date is the Sephirotic torrent on nyaa. It's not perfect but still the best so far with room for improvement; don't bother with any official releases.

>>23794563
lol netflix

>>23790831
It's very depressing, so I'd recommend to start watching it when your mood is alright.

>>23795122
>>23795131
you gotta admire the autism to go back and revise your own shit back and forth over 30 years
and somehow the audience and the director(s) wants more, and it works
I don't know if I ever saw that somewhere else
>>23795531
I dunno man, my mood was almost shit when I started but it made me feel better by the end of it

on a side note I'm now watching 2.22, I'm pleasantly surprised/intrigued at the amount of stuff added/changed from the TV version within the first

>>23795606
*within the first 25 minutes

>>23794563
>>23794684
kill yourself FAGGOT

>>23795122
You had me till you mentioned watching EoE before 25-26. What kind of retard recommends that for a first watch?

>>23795844
You can do it either way round really imo, they're different endings, comparing them is apples and oranges regardless of continuity arguments. Best to appraise each one as its own thing.

>>23790831
Yes
>is evangelion the greatest anime ever made and transcends the medium and elevates it to true art
No, and stop reading tvtropes

this thread is a psyop

>>23796351
how?

>>23795998
b-b-but....it is art ;(

>>23790831
idk for me it wasn't worth the hype it gets elsewhere online

>>23790882
I feel like the oppisite of this is true. beacuse eva has become ubik the episodic portions of the show have lost alot of their impact but holy fuck the recent movies are good . I don't think the new season is going to be as good as the last 3 movies. anno > yoko troono

>>23794564
why?

>>23799322
i agree that it is overhyped now but that does not mean its bad, it does effect how much impact the show has though.

>>23799382
it had to take 3 to make it's impact impactful

>>23790831
Worth watching.

>>23805488
This.

you guys must love your psyop threads huh?

>>23790831
The movie made me vomit and have irritable bowels for days.

>>23810091
I guess that's what they mean by tumbling down.

this thread let me down

>>23811705
You've been a fool to yourself

only the og series is good, the movies and new gen shit are horrible and confusing

>>23812232
The "rebuilds" are a mess, just like gquuux. Khara can't do anything right. All their productions seem like a toddler finger painting.
