I'm revealing my lack of Eva knowledge here, but recently I've been watching and very much enjoying Dennoh Coil which is helmed by Mitsuo Iso. After looking him up it turns out that, along with a slew of other very notable anime classics, he contributed not insignificantly to Evangelion in...

So AI eh? It continues to be a bit bloody rubbish doesn't it? I feel like most people at this point flat out hate its current incarnations (do correct me if I'm wrong, just going off the impression I get) for all sorts of legitimate reasons, and feel only more anxious about the future of it. And...

Dorohedoro S2 ep 6 Continuing to love Dorohedoro in all its batshit glory. The lack of various EDs (so far) like S1 may seem a little disappointing, but I'm not mad as the tune is a bit of a banger. Den noh coil eps 1-7 I've been watching Dennoh Coil as a bit of a pallette cleanser after...

Dorehedoro series 1 rewatched + S2 eps 1 and 2 Man Dorehedoro is so good! I love everything about it, maybe I'd still prefer 2d animation in an ideal world, but the CGI doesn't annoy me. I think it was @Professor Irony who said that it reminds him of 90s anime, and I agree with that. There's...

Great Teacher Onizuka I've finally finished GTO, and and I can honestly say I'm going to miss having it there to dip into whenever I want to reliably put a grin on my face and be transported to a world where all problems can be overcome by sheer goofiness and dumb heart. I was a little...

I feel sorry for the people of Iran and Lebanon who are getting bombed by the terrorist states Israel and the US. Another spike in the cost of living for the rest of the world also sucks obviously, but it's nothing compared to having two old evil bastards drop bombs on you with impunity.

Who are Khara even apologising to there? Themselves? I'm loving the swift justice karma doled out to Khara on this one! Although I hope the poor sod who made the blunder didn't lose his job though.

It's looking like the Greens have (hopefully) done it at Gorton and Denton. Beautiful! It's the one result Labour didn't want (because they would have been pretty happy with a Reform win so they could have really leaned in on the "Greens are letting Reform in narrative). If Labour had any sense...

^ Is the reaction to this news one of "malding"? I wouldn't know as the only anime forum/space I use is this one so I've so far seen a total of about 5 reactions to this news and no malding. But you can't really blame people if their response is a little muted to the news of another 90s anime...

Thanks for the thread! Anyway I was interested to read what @sirijo wants from this new series (in the other thread I bumped, sorry about that!). Personally though when I really think about it, if I'm completely honest, I'm not sure I do really want more Evangelion. Don't get me wrong, I'm a...

So the announcement of the new Eva series, what's the forums thoughts? How excited is everyone? Is Yoko Taro a good writer and a good match for Eva?

Worry not I'll make a dedicated Eva thread if someone doesn't beat me to it (please feel free to). And possibly even a dedicated Yoko Taro thread too!

Should we start a dedicated thread for this Eva news? I dislike how the general news thread, which should really be restricted to very minor news stories, tends to swallow up all news stories which means they can be easily missed by people who don't check the thread daily and limits discussion...

Hold the phone! @ilmaestro just came sauntering back casually over 10 says ago and posted in this thread?!

Death Note eps 1-13 or thereabouts. Why did it take me so long to finally get around to watching this? I can't really remember what put me off back in the day (the show is nearly 20 years old already, which is slightly sobering!), I can only think it was my inner contrarian being repelled by...
