  • The meta narrative about Evangelion’s creation is why I love End of Evangelion so much.

    In short: Anno thought he would have more than 2 seasons, but Gainax pulled the plug while they were about to finish the 2nd season. This is why the last 2 episodes of the TV series take a hard turn, Anno couldn’t rewrite more and want to at least give some resolution to Shiji’s story. Fans absolutely hated the ending though, but Gainax later offered to make a movie so Anno decided to make End of Evangelion as a replacement for the final 2 episodes but with an entire season of story compressed down just to show the fans how ridiculous it would have been while also “ruining” parts of the story just to upset them. Fun fact: The scenes with fast flashing text are taken from death threats Anno recieved from fans after the TV series ending.

    End of Evangelion is Anno basically flexing his story writing while giving a giant middle finger to his fans in movie form.









  • Nobody really gets disowned for voting for a particular candidate because voting is private and done in secret. You can lie about who you voted for and nobody can even prove it.

    People actually get disowned for constantly talking about voting for a particular candidate, even after their friends and family ask them to stop.

    They made their choice to put their politics before their family and need to cry publicly about it to get that sweet persecution complex.
