I know you won't see this since you're seldom online, at least not for a while, but I was wondering if you watched the new Ramna 1/2 adaptation. I know the manga is one of your favourites, and also that you are still watching anime, just not updating your list, so I'm, interested to know if you have watched it.

Another funny coincidence. You've left two comments on my profile - with a year gap to the day in between them.

How funny - I scrolled past my list to the comments on my account, found ChrissyKay's and checked his account only to see he was online 8 hours ago. No list updates though.

I loved your review of nisemonogatari. I read it after the infamous shinobu episode and i was so disgusted i started looking to validate my feelings. I don't agree with the rating but it was for sure excellently written

Sa-mi bag pula-n ma-ta.

1. Ummm... ChildYeeter?
2. ChrissyKay was online yesterday
3. That is good

I'm also going to add that anyone who is an English teacher gets my respect. English is my favourite subject so anyone who's actually interested in it and realises that it is more useful than goddamn maths (use a calculator for goodness sake, since you're walking around with your face stuck in your phone). I wish this platform had a way to 'follow' someone as opposed to friending them but alas a friend request is my only option. Anyone who came her to go '##### you ##### since you're so ###### #####' should lay off and have plus respect for this man who goes by Mr Kay to a bunch of second graders every day.

I'm just sorry that so many people are fuming at some random person. They are clearly pretty critical of anime, but so what? Time is valuable, especially to someone who works as a public school teacher. Hey there Chrissy, if you're reading this. Surprised to find someone who prefers Toradora to FMAB, but your reviews are logical and made sense. Your review was the only negative one on an anime that I enjoyed that didn't leave me angry. Good luck dealing with those 2nd Graders.

Based FMAB review.

Good review also buy the https://amzn.to/3SVT4TD the full metal alchemist manga

helloo im sure youre sick to death of people responding to your nge review but there was one thing with the plot i felt worth mentioning (did a quick check of other comments here and didnt see anyone mention it).

You stated: "The premise assumes that only 14-year-old children can pilot giant robots. Why? Never touched on. Okay, so any 14-year-old in the world will do, right? Nope, it has to be the guy who's spearheading the whole project's son, who is also conveniently unwilling to do it. "

So actually this is explained, in a blink and youll miss it subtext kind of way.

Basically the evas are not robots at all, but are some sort of living creatures (i think it was episode 2 where shinji saw it's eye after the helmet fell off?). The reason is that, as shown in the opening sequence, no regular man made weapons can defeat an angel due to their AT fields, "the barrier of the soul". The evas were created from samples from Adam, with the exception of Evangelion Unit-01 which was created from the second angel, Lilith, which is what enables them to have the field and why they're so strong. The robot armor is actually more of a limiter.

What we learn is that each of the evangelions is imbued with the soul of the pilot's mother. In the case of Unit 01, this is the scene where we learned how Shinji's mother died in an accident with the eva, her soul was absorbed into the unit which is why Shinji is almost always the only one piloting it. Asuka's mom, who was a nerv scientist in the germany division, also went through a contact experiment which caused just a part of her soul to be absorbed into Unit 02; this is what caused Asuka's mom to go insane and is why in EOE we have the sequence where Asuka connects with her mother's soul right before fighting the eva series.

Rei's soul is not normal as the other two pilots since she's a clone. In one episode Kaworu states they are the human vessels for the souls of Adam and Lilith, respectively, and every time Rei reincarnates her soul is transferred into a new clone body (these clones are also what are used for the dummy plug system). This is why Rei is able to sync decently well with most of the evas.

So yeah, there is a very specific reasoning to it, but I think a lot of this info is revealed in what, on first watch, is kind of hard to understand technical talk / some of it is in the directors cut. I think the reason they don't do more to explain it is because ultimately the point of nge isn't a cool mecha anime, rather this is just a storytelling device for exploring the characters and the difficulties of human relations and communications...

If you're interested, id HIGHLY recommend searching "digi evangelion" on youtube, this (now retired) youtuber has some extremely good analysis of the series, especially the videos which focus in on certain episodes. Anyways thanks for your review !
