Just the Evangelion OP, everyone. Nothing else, honest.
Otras cosas curiosas
Here’s me talking about Pacific Rim.
(I have no idea what I’m talking about)
A bunch of people keep insisting it’s a rip off of Neon Genesis Evangelion. I even saw one person say it was taking Evangelion and removing all the heart that the show apparently has.
First off. Have you...
Happy Pride month to all Kingdom Hearts (and Eva I guess) fans, Utada Hikaru is non-binary!
One notable animator on the film was Hideaki Anno, who later wrote and directed Neon Genesis Evangelion. (x)
Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind (1984)
blatant references to evangelion go
two of my favorite fandoms crossovered? eff yeah
(I highly doubt Ford will actually join Bill in the finale but come on the potential angst and drama for this bs is delicious)
‘Agnus Dei‘ For Qpop Shop’s GAINAX Show
My painting for the Gainax show tonight at 7pm in Q2. I’ve got a soft spot for Evangelion. A gross, creepy, mutilated soft spot. I was probably way too young to watch this when I did, but robots with teeth and guts? There was no going back.
Check it out along with a bunch of other crazy artists!
I think this is a conversation that fandom needs to have in general.
When you encounter something that makes you uncomfortable while you’re playing a video game, reading something on AO3, browsing Twitter, or scrolling through Tumblr, you have the power to remove yourself. You can stop reading, you can hit the back button, you can block/mute, you can turn the device off entirely.
“Consent” has a very specific meaning. When you’re consuming a piece of media that a creator has posted on their own personal account, you are in their space. That is a one-sided interaction. They’re not at all involved, they can’t reach through the screen to hit the back button for you. They’re not “violating your consent” or “pushing your boundaries”, because you are the one in control.
We need to stop acting like creators are 100% responsible for the mental well-being of every person who could possibly encounter their work, and instead start taking responsibility for our own online experiences.
Remember when Persona 5 came out, and then people got upset because the game required you to acknowledge on starting the game that it was a work of fiction without any direct connection to reality.
And that if you refused to do so, the game would kick you out entirely.
People got actually honest to god MAD over the idea that they were expected to treat fiction like fiction.
There was at least one big name professional “journalist” who claimed he couldn’t get past the first minute of P5 because it refused to proceed until he admitted that this was a work of fiction and he was apparently incapable of doing that.
This is such a bizarre concept to me because media is inherently passive--you choose to watch, to read, to play, etc. A movie or a book or a game can't "violate" your consent, because you can stop anytime things become uncomfortable. You are in control of your experience. If you can't acknowledge fiction as fiction, maybe you shouldn't be interacting with it.
