When I say that all the religious symbolism is "fake," I'm referring to that symbolism in the context of the show. Yes, the Tree of Sephiroth is present in the show and yes it's a very powerful symbol in the context of the Jewish faith, but it isn't symbolic for anything in the context of Neon Genesis Evangelion. I actually kind of like how all the Judeo-Christian symbolism is totally meaningless. It keeps the show from being all preachy to those of us who understand that it's meaningless and gives me a reason to recommend it to my super religious older sister because she'll love the series for it no matter how meaningless it is.
Thus why I added "and stuff" in there.
You mean fake Christian symbolism, right? All those crosses and stuff are completely meaningless.
I'd like to know this too. At best, he's an exceptionally well done bad idea.
Are you trying to say that Shinji/Penpen isn't canon?
Oi! Since you do news sometimes, I thought I should let you know that Kingdom Hearts 1.5 HD ReMix seems to have started arriving in Amazon.com...
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think the pretentious vibe might be from all the religious symbolism that didn't really exist at all. In fact, one of my favorite things about Evangelion is the fact that there's so much "symbolism" that's really just there to look good. The real symbolism is actually somewhat deep.
Terribly unpredictable. Loyalty is the best thing about her, and that can start to feel stifling after a while. Insane and liable to kill you if you even think about considering making your own decisions. So submissive that it feels like you're just using her, eventually causing sleepless nights ridden with guilt. THANKS DADDY!
Don't you know how to rob a bank?
Gently smash it with a hammer. If percussive maintenance proves unsuccessful, buy a new controller.
One of whom is a hyperactive alcoholic, another of whom could destroy any Angel with the raw power of her raging feminine hormones, and the last of whom would be a catch if she could actually learn to express herself. NICE WORK, GENDOU!
As much as I love Evangelion right now, I agree with you on Shinji. I wouldn't say he's the worst character ever, but he's definitely a pretty weak character. He's almost weaker Martha on Doctor Who, and in the same way. I actually came up with this on my own. I suppose there really is no such thing as originality.[DOUBLEPOST=1378085877][/DOUBLEPOST] Also: DARKNESSDARKNESSDARKNESSDARKNESSDARKNESSDARKNESSDARKNESSDARKNESSDARKNESSDARKNESSDARKNESSDARKNESSDARKNESSDARKNESSDARKNESSDARKNESSDARKNESSDARKNESSDARKNESSDARKNESSDARKNESSDARKNESSDARKNESSDARKNESSDARKNESSDARKNESSDARKNESSDARKNESSDARKNESSDARKNESSDARKNESSDARKNESSDARKNESSDARKNESSDARKNESSDARKNESSDARKNESSDARKNESSDARKNESS LIGHT
