I've been meaning to ask, when the fuck did Asuka get an eyepatch?

I can't remember, but I think it was in 2.22 when

Spoiler

Shinji had to fight her.

 

[croten]

Agree to disagree.

Spoiler

The show makes a point of showing cruel and vile they were. The infamous bath scene alone shows what kind of monster Ragyo is.

Also Mako is great

A good villain is one that you can understand and possibly sympathize with, one who motivations are clear and understood.

Spoiler

Ragyo

is just a bitch

No, that's a good anti-hero.

 

[Tako]

But the upside is you can eat as much as you want without people bitching because you're the chef and what you say goes.

I just wanted to play some Naruto amd Dark Souls. But no, I'm making chili, potato wedges, hamburger sliders, jalapeño poppers and fruit salad.

As much as I hate to admit it

Nagato was a damn good villain, back in the day when I watched naruto that backstory honestly made me feel bad for him and I knew where he was coming from and how he got the way he did.

If Shippuden did one thing right, it was Nagato.

I just wanted to play some Naruto amd Dark Souls. But no, I'm making chili, potato wedges, hamburger sliders, jalapeño poppers and fruit salad.

I did all that this morning, except it was Sushi,fried rice, and I made some Tonkatsu ramen.

Yo happy New Year frienders

its 2015 in England

 

[Oberon]

God damn, I hate the Rebuild series.

It's ok, the last film will probably explain everything...I hope

Ugh..that..no..just fucking no..I'm cringing at that gif.

.

The why do you have her as an avatar with the eyepatch on ?

 

[Banana Aeon]

Agree to disagree.

Spoiler

Also Mako is great

That makes them easy to hate, but their motivations are nonexistent. Without a believable villainous intent, they appear as weak villains.

Spoiler

Ragyo

is just a bitch

Spoiler

Well she and most of her family were "tasked" with spreading the life fibers. It was her life's ambition. She would do anything to achieve it

Also that line of thinking falls apart considering that The Joker's (and in no way in hell am I comparing KLK to Batman) motivations and why does the shit he does are unclear. Their are however interpretations

For what Kill La Kill was, the villains did their jobs well

 

[CthulhuSushi]

It's ok, the last film will probably explain everything...I hope


The why do you have her as an avatar with the eyepatch on ?

Because I love the shit out of her in that sweater and Obe added knee highs. I like the eye patch anyway, that's not what I hate about the remake series.

I hate that they took a classic anime and re made it just for the sake of remaking it. It's sad but most of the older animes from the 90's have aged well outside of most Shounen, there was no need to remake this series. They did it to make more fucking money and it pisses me off, but not nearly as much as it pisses me off knowing that the shit remake movies are more well known then the actual episodic series at this point.

You guys like Queen?

Well imagine if Nicki Minaj remade Bohemian Rhapsody.

That's the best way I can describe how I feel about those movies.

 

[croten]

No, that's a good anti-hero.

No? I never said they weren't evil just that you get thir motivations. For example in Gurren Lagann, the easiest comparison to KLK,

Spoiler

Lordgenome

and the

Spoiler

Anti-spiral's

motivations make sense.

Spoiler

Lordgenome wants humanity to live a shit life so that they can live at all and the anti-spiral want to prevent the end of the universe.

Neither of these things I would ever condemn but I can still understand it.

 

[360pages]

Yea I know it does, that's just my favorite anime I'd like to think it doesn't.

Fucking shit I'm taking this harder then I have when some girls have dumped me.



Yuyu is by far my favorite Shonen, and when you say Dragonball, are speaking of both that and Z or just the original?

Just Dragon Ball, I like Z as well, but the writing was pretty poor compared to Dragon Balls.

 

[jack_package_200]

It made sense to me

*shrugs shoulders*

Also I will mirror what Cthulhu said about Nagato. He deserved a better show than Naruto.

 

[croten]

Spoiler

Well she and most of her family were "tasked" with spreading the life fibers. It was her life's ambition. She would do anything to achieve it

That's still no good.

Spoiler

The joker wants to watch the world burn because he gets off on it but Ragyo wants the life fibers to take over the world because...?

 

[Tako]

I did all that this morning, except it was Sushi,fried rice, and I made some Tonkatsu ramen.

Ugh I wish we could cook together and make some badass food

 

[Alfebit]

Because I love the shit out of her in that sweater and Obe added knee highs. I like the eye patch anyway, that's not what I hate about the remake series.

Oberon added those in?

 

[zedreamcast]

Happy New years Europeans...

She's the best written character in Eva...

Oh dear lord don't you be talkin shit about Asuka.

How is Asuka a flaw, when her character purpose is fulfilled perfectly?

SPOILERS for.....I think the lastest film 3.33 or somthing
http://media.giphy.com/media/mGU3IXBNZEHxC/giphy.gif

Spoiler

What was their motivation again?

I reaaaaaaaally hate Asuka.

Rei for life.

 

[jack_package_200]

That's still no good.

Spoiler

The joker wants to watch the world burn because he gets off on it but Ragyo wants the life fibers to take over the world because...?

They explained that.

Spoiler

They would convert humans into life fibers and then destroy the planet. The explosion would send the life fibers far into the universe to other worlds where they can repeat the process. Also the life fibers are fucking Aliens.

 

[CthulhuSushi]

Just Dragon Ball, I like Z as well, but the writing was pretty poor compared to Dragon Balls.

Alright Z is okay at best..most of it is nostalgia to some people.

Ugh I wish we could cook together and make some badass food

I would be down for that if I'm ever in your neighborhood.

Oberon added those in?

Yea I asked in here if someone could make it transparent and gave me a late christmas gift in the form of my waifu in my favorite outfit.

I reaaaaaaaally hate Asuka.

Rei for life.

YOU GO TO HELL! YOU GO TO HELL AND YOU DIE!

 

[Ultimate_Trainer]

That's still no good.

Spoiler

The joker wants to watch the world burn because he gets off on it but Ragyo wants the life fibers to take over the world because...?

Didn't they explain that

Spoiler

Life fibers were the basis of evolution? I think they were trying to make her reasoning to be that we would be better beings?

I reaaaaaaaally hate Asuka.

Rei for life.

Rei is my favorite, but Asuka is still a good character and easy to sympathize.

 

[zedreamcast]

They explained that.

Spoiler

They would convert humans into life fibers and then destroy the planet. The explosion would send the life fibers far into the universe to other worlds where they can repeat the process.

Spoiler

but why does RAGYO want to do this. Thats what the life fibers want, but why does Ragyo want to help them, its never explained.

 

[Xiraiya]

I have never heard of that youtube channel in all these years.

 

[croten]

They explained that.

Spoiler

But why did

Ragyo

want that?

 

[Banana Aeon]

I reaaaaaaaally hate Asuka.

Rei for life.

But why do you hate her?

 

[Phantasmal Repose]

I have never heard of that youtube channel in all these years.

It wasn't a popular youtube channel, but a lot of people here are fans.

 

[jack_package_200]

Spoiler

but why does RAGYO want to do this. Thats what the life fibers want, but why does Ragyo want to help them, its never explained.

Spoiler

Because they converted her as they did her family for many many generations. They brainwashed her into doing this. She hated humanity as well after being brainwashed. She started the "pigs in clothes"

She resented that she had to work with a species she found distgusting

 

[CthulhuSushi]

I have never heard of that youtube channel in all these years.

You missed out on some amazing content man..

It was better to love and lost, then to have never loved at all I suppose..

 

[Zenfalcia]

999 update: so.. captain quarters.. i feel like i'm getting the true route.

I have never heard of that youtube channel in all these years.

Well.. he's popular but not that popular. It's not surprising. It's kinda like not everyone knows who tbf is.

 

[zedreamcast]

Alright Z is okay at best..most of it is nostalgia to some people.


I would be down for that if I'm ever in your neighborhood.

YOU GO TO HELL! YOU GO TO HELL AND YOU DIE!

AHAHAHAA

 

[zedreamcast]

But why do you hate her?

Its mainly because of the episodes where she was introduced, I gradually warmed up to her near the end of the series but those episode introducing her were just....gah worst part of the series. I hate her and her constant need for attention.

 

[Imperfected]

Also I am in the process of writing a review of KLK

Try to keep your goals in mind so as to avoid disorientation or the inability to grasp how to proceed with your endeavor.

 

[croten]

999 update: so.. captain quarters.. i feel like i'm getting the true route.

You're getting the coffin route, you need to get the safe ending before you can get the true route

 

[CthulhuSushi]

AHAHAHAA

You must have a garbage fetish,

Jk you're great <3

Yea you are, you may also have missed some back story for certain characters

You're getting the coffin route, you need to get the safe ending before you can get the true route

He already got the safe ending

You must have a garbage fetish, first you like the pile of garbage that lives at the inn, now you like the garbage that's

Did he? Oh then yeah true end for him

 

[Banana Aeon]

Its mainly because of the episodes where she was introduced, I gradually warmed up to her near the end of the series but those episode introducing her were just....gah worst part of the series. I hate her and her constant need for attention.

Spoiler

That's the point. She craved attention because she was replaced by a doll by her mother. She wanted to look like a mature woman. She wanted to feel important to others, as the only thing she was her piloting.

 

[CthulhuSushi]

Tsunderes are the fucking worst, and I hate you.

Spoiler

joking <3

Also spoiler

Tsunderes are the best..wanna know why? Once you get their attention they become the cutest shit ever

Well, I made this eyepatch less avatar anyway

I love the orginal series, but the films have some really sick fights!

Oberon added those in?

Oh, havent's seen this one for a while

Spoiler

I could do the same with korra if you want

I reaaaaaaaally hate Asuka.

Rei for life.

Actually, Rei is pretty great

 

[Ultimate_Trainer]

We should do Foodgaf

I don't wanna take pictures of my food.

Spoiler

I also just ate

 

[mike0dude]

Rei is the best tho

 

[Zenfalcia]

You're getting the coffin route, you need to get the safe ending before you can get the true route

K. I'll just play more and complete everything.

Yea you are, you may also have missed some back story for certain characters

He already got the safe ending

It's fine! I can always go back and learn more.

 

[Phantasmal Repose]

Tsunderes are the best..wanna know why? Once you get their attention they become the cutest shit ever

Tsunderes are garbage. One of the most overused tropes in anime. I hate almost all of them. The only ones I think are okay are Asuka and Yukari and that's because they're both well written.

Rei's pretty cool, it's just that her character purpose failed, because too many people found her cute, rather than creepy.

 

[zedreamcast]

Spoiler

Spoiler

i get that and like i said i warmed up to her as the series went on but im still not a fan of her. I hate how shes the only one who came back at the end and not Misato or Rei

 

[croten]

Rei's pretty cool, it's just that her character purpose failed, because too many people found her cute, rather than creepy.

I definitely found her creepy

 

[CthulhuSushi]

Tsunderes are garbage. One of the most overused tropes in anime. I hate almost all of them. The only ones I think are okay are Asuka and Yukari and that's because they're both well written.

Let me rephrase what I said..

Well written tsunderes are amazing. Poorly written ones are garbage.

I definitely found her creepy

I found her creepy at the end of EoE, but throughout the whole series she just reminded me of a shy quiet girl.

I would say that is a flaw of Eva, Rei needed to be more creepy.

 

[Oberon]

Tsunderes are garbage. One of the most overused tropes in anime. I hate almost all of them. The only ones I think are okay are Asuka and Yukari and that's because they're both well written.

Tsundere are the worst in the real life too

Thanks dude <3

You're welcome

Rei's pretty cool, it's just that her character purpose failed, because too many people found her cute, rather than creepy.

They should have hired the poeple who wrote Yukikos character amarite?
