XenoMalos said: I enjoy the show a freaking lot but let's be honest here, it pales in comparison when compared to NGE (charatcer development, world building, story etc.) From the outrage and praise from both episode 14 and 15, it seems more people only give a s*** about their waifu and not the story or characters. Ichigo seems to be the only realistic character of the bunch even though Miku is my favorite. i haven't finished Neon Genesis but It's probably better than this anime lol. I don't like any of the characters really. Only really liked episode 13 because the narrative was spot on. The rest of the episodes are just...bleh. But the comment on the waifu part is very much why these threads are irritating to read xD edit: I didn't mean your thread is irritating, I meant the discussion boards are annoying because all they talk about is how hot 02 is lmfao |
| Oscar and Andre deserved better |
| This anime is overrated only for Zero Two. Compare this to NGE it's disrespectful. |

Saying otherwise is disrespectful, because this website has enough low-quality garbage rated at 8.15 or higher. Even the Top 100 list is a joke filled with god-knows-what. That's a little overboard with what you said, but I do agree, there's a handful of stuff in the top 50 that don't deserve to be there, imo |

Ichigo seems to be the only realistic character of the bunch even though Miku is my favorite. I personally enjoy this more than Evangelion (minus the movies)....in Eva, I really couldn't get myself to like or feel for any of the characters besides Alexis and Rei. Also, Evangelion never really did enough to play with my emotions, though the story was hella good. That's just my personal opinion, though, no offense to Eva fans. |

| Blood rain after some klaxos are destroyed, pilots suffering when the Franxx go into stampede mode, conflicted relationship between the two main characters, Nana is somewhat similar to Misato, Dr Franxx also is somewhat similar to Gendou. I think those are the reasons, while I admit I'm loving this show, it's undeniable that Evangelion is a classic that sometimes makes you question your sanity whereas Franxx has been pretty much Waifu Wars for the last weeks. |
Ligkonakos said: I'm surprised nobody is talking about the horrible pacing of Ep.15? Within that awful pacing is also probably one of the season's biggest asspulls. Would you care to elaborate why in your opinion the pacing was bad? The only thing that bothered me a little bit was the memory sharing between Ichigo and Hiro, I thought it was a cheap way to fix their issues. |
Ligkonakos said: The pacing on the first half was normal, nothing wrong. After the first half it just seemed to zap past a lot of scenes too fast for my liking, and what pacing was established from ep.01-14. It's fair to assume that Hiro can't ride with anyone but 02, the fact that he went inside her cockpit in the heat of battle and suddenly could ride without giving any exposition whatsoever (or maybe I missed it) was, like you said, a very cheap way to get him to 02. There could have been a lot of ways going about doing that, but for some reason the director thought it was a clever idea to do it this way. The thing is, he could not keep riding with anyone else, even when he tried to pilot with Ichigo, Delphinium worked for a short while, perhaps this short while was enough to get him to Zero Two. Also we speculate that Hiro was no longer able to pilot with anyone else due to his memory alteration, and since he's got his memories back maybe he's now able to pilot continuously once again. The other theory was that he wasn't able to ride with people was because he ingested some of Zero Two's blood, this is also stated by the doctors as a possibility, but it is not confirmed. The thing is, having Ichigo pilot with Hiro, and thus being able to see that everything in his mind screams Zero Two is a very efficient way to give Ichigo some closure, she is now able to see that her love won't bear fruit and that it is time to move on. It is cheap, but extremely time efficient. @RedolentSerenity That's exacly what I think, if you are watching a show and being extremely picky about its flaws, stop it, you are not being entertained, which is the point of watching a show. It's A1 pictures for god's sake, we alll know what we're getting into. |
| Don't care 'which is better or worse' bitching. I found them both equally mind-f+cking and bothering my mood. This is enough for me to enjoy them. But NGE goes to a preaching route through last episodes and I didn't like it, End of Evangelion fixed the problem for me. But still, DITF has no fatherly figure like Gendou who is my one of favorite punchable anti-protagonist-like characters. I like him and I want to punch him while he is sitting in a dark office, playing with his glasses. Who to punch in DITF for relief? |
Ligkonakos said: I rather enjoy the show quite a lot. I'm not sure why you would assume that I watch the show just to nitpick; that is, if your comment was directed to me. That's a vaid point, though the specific problem stems from the fact that I'm watching it on a weekly basis, it's not easy to remember all the details of a show even if they are given to you. I'd probably not have this issue if I binged it when it finished. Even so, I'm still staying firm that the pacing was a bit too fast. Ichigo should (and could) have been given closure way earlier, imo, but it's understandable that they dragged it so much since they are basically children that don't respond to emotions too well. It wasn't directed to you, it's just that there are a lot of people that act like they are in a CinemaSins video when they watch anime. I didn't mean to say that the episode wasn't rushed, it's just that I don't usually pay attention to pacing, and due to this I can only tell if something is rushed when it's done to the extreme, the fact that you pointed it out just got me curious, that's all. @Aeoness Punch Papa, problem solved. |
| What mecha out there wasn't compared to Eva? Not to mention, the usage of mechas here are similar how Eva uses its Evangelions. Only this time, with redundant sex jokes. And other things that parallels with Eva. It's the next Mind Game, but even more outrageous. It is also a Trigger anime (plus A-1) and Trigger came from Gainax and what did Gainax make? Eva. |

| Because there are lots of paralelisms being drawn all of the time. Because this is basically by GAINAX in spirit. |

| It's just people being people, don't pay any attention to them. |

| NGE is garbage compared to good anime like Franxx. |
| Another thread about how bad DitF is compared to NGE zZzZzZzZz |
| because they areretarded any similarities to NGE are small, insignificant and completely superficial these shows are nothing alike and do completely different things actually both comparisons to nge and TTGL are completely stupid and a meme really having the top review contain both of them makes me cringe and wonder if people are watching the same show because they clearly fucking aren't I'm not even talking about quality because I like both, even if nge is my favourite and ditf not so much they're just different things |
 |
| because every mecha is a rip off of evangelion |
Edward Elric > your waifu  |
| Because both Franxx and NGE share 1 thing besides mechas that are not fully mechanical. That thing is the exploration of cast in way that revolves around breaking their characters apart to show us how their traits are projecting into the story and during battle think of it as their mark. Those 2 shows are way more organic with their cast then average battle mecha i think. Sadly in Franxx only 3 characters can be said to have such treatmant so far Zero Two, Hiro and partially Mitsuru others cant be put in same category. And NGE does it on whole another level even going into the harder psychological teritory later on also with every character. Impact of NGE on viewer is on another lvl if i look at it as complete product + EOE, but Franxx is still at least 8 if it keeps up these lvl of episodes 12-13-15. |

Please learn about cel animation and its technical process. Learn how special effects and backlighting were done without computers. |
| I don't get the comparisons as well, if anything, it's much closer to Gurren Lagann. Both shows are coming of age stories, both feature unique robot designs, and both shows tend to take place in a big empty world to highlight the battles. The differences are mainly in the writing, Gurren Lagann is by far better paced and written. |
| Sigh. |
