The July 2013 issue of Young Ace will have the final chapter, titled Last Stage of the manga. Personally, I’ve had mixed feelings about where Sadamoto has taken the story, but [...]

The main male protagonist, now 28 years old, asking questions I also wanted to be answered. As mentioned in the previous entry of this blog, today’s review is for the third Evangelion reboot movie titled Evangelion 3.0 You Can (Not) Redo, which in hindsight, really fits the plot of the movie. While this movie is [...] Related posts: Review: Evangelion: 2.0 You Can (Not) Advance (ヱヴァンゲリヲン新劇場版：破) This early scene in the movie is just the beginning of more deviation from the TV series by this movie. As mentioned in my previous review, today’s post will contain my review of the second installment of the Evangelion movie titled Evangelion: 2.0 You Can (Not) Advance. This movie is the second of four movies [...]... Review: Evangelion 1.0 You Are (Not) Alone – ヱヴァンゲリヲン新劇場版：序 Our emo poster boy returned, now with DAT player in tow. Compare with the earlier entry here. Just after posting the Gakkou no Kaidan review, I went ahead and watch the first Evangelion remake. 2 hours later, the movie is finished and here is another review, the 2nd for this day. The green one has [...]... Review: Neon Genesis Evangelion (新世紀エヴァンゲリオン) Huzzah for English in Japanese animation! It is not perfect, but a considerable improvement. I watched this one way before this blog is started from original R1 DVDs, a long time ago. As I rummaged through my DVD collection, I managed to find this one and out of nostalgia, I rewatched it again. A series [...]... Review: Piano – The Melody of a Young Girl’s Heart  This is a short review of a short anime series titled Piano, that has some bizzare moments in it.

Review: Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood (鋼の錬金術師) The main title protagonist.

Shingeki no Kyojin 08 - Evangelion anyone? - Armin gets an idea on how to defeat the other titans...use the other titan. Hell Yeah! Mikasa and the other partner agrees on the plan. Meanwhile Jean and the rest is having to deal with the titans on the tower. Things are getting bad for the group...until the "good" titan appears, thanks to Armin and his idea. Man, this "good" titan is beating the crap out of the others. Even play soccer with them. Meanwhile, the soldiers that remains in the tower are doing their best and have a plan. It seems Armin is not exactly a good fighter, but a good strategist. He is getting the good plans as I am writing this post. As Mikasa says, Armin proves to have talent for reasoning out the best solution. Jean is also having his piece of motivation to keep going. He is not a bad leader. Best line of the episode...Pardon me...for suddenly stabbing you from behind...LOL, Bad thing that potato head missed the neck. Mikasa and Blondie are so cool!!! I think Potato head will have her chance. Now, lets go to the twist of the plot. The "good" titan beat the rest and then He is gone. After the that, We can see the pilot of the good titan...Yeah, EREN!!! Mikasa outburst in tears after hearing the heartbeat. He has his arms and legs intact. It will be interesting to see Eren´s personality and behavior after the experience. Lets hope He is not the little brat I hate, anymore. Oh yeah, about the Evangelion thing, I think the similarities are just there.Shingeki no Kyojin 08 - Evangelion anyone? -Shingeki no Kyojin 08 - Evangelion anyone? - Armin gets an idea on how to defeat the other titans...use the other titan.

I’ll open this brief impressions post with a shameless, flagrant notice, and that is that I reserve the right to totally change my opinion at some later date.  That’s how much respect I have for Anno’s vision.  Is that clear?  OK, here we go then. I hated this. I felt as if an Evangelion hater [...]
