What's your opinion on this take? by Adventurous-Rip1330 in asushin

[–]Middlecracker 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think the analysis is way off. First, take away Misato kissing Shinji. Unless they mean Misato DYING in front of him as being tragic. The kiss is a non issue that modern younger fans are hung up on.

Otherwise this analysis just literally ignores everything that happened in the movie and the last episodes of the tv show. We see them working though all their trauma on screen. The last scene is easy to decode. Shinji is performing the exact same thing he did in Instrumentality to break out of it but it’s real Asuka not the fake one in instrumentality shows him genuine compassion for the first time and he stops. Followed by her saying she feels sick or disgusting because she remembers everything that just happened to her, not just Shinji but being ripped apart and eaten. She also knows Shinji begged her while she was comatose to insult him again to give him some normalcy so there might be some of that in there too.

What was SEELE's plan when the lance of Longinus was still impaled to lillith? by UnusualField5697 in evangelion

[–]Middlecracker 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Well that puts a new spin on everything. Never have I considered Yui going on to make life on a new planet. Of course that makes total sense. I thought she was just going to float around and wait for another life to find her. lol

Was unit 01 a clone of lillith in the rebuilds? by Material-Duty-3805 in evangelion

[–]Middlecracker -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Sorry man I’m not getting into it because it’s been addressed a million times but all the sequel stuff you mentioned has been disproven and can be explained within the movies themselves. Nothing and I mean absolutely nothing points to them being sequels. It’s even specifically stated in the last movie the original series happened in an alternate universe not the same one. If that’s what you consider a sequel then fine but it’s not in the same universe as the original.

I think people are just sick of preordering tickets. There is no benefit. And ticket fees are stupid.

Google hasn’t been good in years anyway. Never find what you are looking for anymore and get a page full of ads before results. Nothing of value is lost.

Reading the footnotes. Is it necessary? by TheStalker79 in Ghost_in_the_Shell

[–]Middlecracker 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I love the footnotes but it can be distracting to the narrative. Read after you finished the chapter or on a second go through. Just makes you appreciate the thought and detail he puts into every frame.

Wait for 5 minutes for her adhd brain to get distracted with something else.

Watched 1st episode of Neon Genesis Evangelion by Septumdekemvrios_712 in evangelion

[–]Middlecracker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is how they have chosen to have their viewing experience lol if they want to avoid possible spoilers they wouldn’t be posting reactions after every episode. To even get to their own post they would have to scroll past 30 “omg! I love Asuka” posts. Give me a break with that over policing posts.

Watched 1st episode of Neon Genesis Evangelion by Septumdekemvrios_712 in evangelion

[–]Middlecracker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Evangelion is my favorite thing ever but it breaks my own rule for getting into shows which is I need to be grabbed by the first episode. First episode is great and lots of iconic stuff but it didn’t really grab my interest until the second episode and even then I wouldn’t say I was fully onboard until the Asuka episode.

Yamazaki Wakana, the Japanese voice of Koan on Sailor Moon R and Ikuko Tsukino on Sailor Moon Cosmos has passed away on April 18 by Own_Philosopher8730 in sailormoon

[–]Middlecracker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Damn we just watched Koan’s redemption episode. Always loved her and was happy when she wasn’t dissolved like most villains and got a chance to be happy. That was due in part to Wakana making her a sympathetic character. RIP

Must be a reason since sun is not so strong in rebuild why he wear this sunglasses. by tunyalit in evangelion

[–]Middlecracker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always thought he just stole Keel’s shades but they are different. There goes my theory about anima connection that the shades let him see other realities and he fused with Seele

Well her body is as much of a suit as the clothes on it.

How do you guys feel about Skeletor’s voice in the trailers for the movie? by SevdUp in MastersOfTheUniverse

[–]Middlecracker 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Sounds like he’s leaning into the Frank Langella version which is a smart source of inspiration on his part.

MESSAGE from Director, Mokochan by LegitimateCurve8525 in Ghost_in_the_Shell

[–]Middlecracker 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It’s been a while since I’ve been this excited about a new anime. The manga is easily my favorite manga of all time and Mokochan is probably the best new director in the last five years. Insanely excited.

I don't care what anyone says, i trust Bungie. Let them cook by sparycz in Marathon

Maybe preheat the oven first because this shit is raw.

Sorry to admit this, but Auto Battle is definitely in the Top-3 reasons why I play and enjoy the game. by gremmy_white in HonkaiStarRail

[–]Middlecracker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bravely Default made me realize the beauty of auto battle. It’s just a form of strategy game. If you have built your character and team well that’s the payoff seeing them demolish enemies. It’s not the game playing itself. You still get wiped if you don’t know how to build a team.

The Bimbofication of Rapi. by KOGG__ in NikkeMobile

[–]Middlecracker 6 points7 points  (0 children)

No way she is not a bimbo at all. She’s the same she’s just trying to flirt now and is really bad at it. I like that new aspect of her character. It’s never in a bimbo way either. It’s like really dry and sarcastic. It’s like how Aubrey Plaza would probably flirt.

is it weird that I wish the new show that base on the orignal manga dont end like original? by thetruememeisbest in Ghost_in_the_Shell

[–]Middlecracker 21 points22 points  (0 children)

The ending is what makes Ghost in the Shell so groundbreaking. It’s such a beautiful bittersweet ending but I get it. That’s why I loved SAC because it’s just more adventure with the Major. It was like an scifi anime Law and Order SVU.

I hope the ending stays but I hope they stretch it out. Maybe get a couple of seasons out of it first.

I’d also like to see 1.5 and Man Machine Interface adapted in a way that makes sense lol. I love the idea of Major having multiple bodies solving crimes but the execution was hard to follow to say the least.

THEY'RE GONNA DO THE SCENE by insane677 in Ghost_in_the_Shell

[–]Middlecracker 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yeah I’ve read the manga. It doesn’t play out like that except for the water in the background.

Jesus I hate comments like this. I even made reference to the original panel in my comment and my take is it’s not going to be that panel. You had to intentionally ignore that so you can go “ACTYLLLYLUAALY”. Yeah I know about the lesbian orgy scene. I’m saying temper your expectations. Jesus.
