I originally started reading girls bravo because i was bored and i figured it was something i could breeze through just to fill my time. I dropped it after the first twenty chapters because it was so utterly boring it pained me to continue reading. After a week I figured I might have missed something because dropped it kind of early, but I was wrong. EVERY SINGLE CHAPTER IS ALMOST IDENTICAL TO THE ONE BEFORE IT! There is absolutely no character progression. I would honestly not be able to tell the difference between the third chapter and the finally except ... for the fact that the last chapter has more uninspired, forgetful, bland characters. Every character seems to be ripped off some other harem manga and the good parts of the original are ripped out of them and thrown into some pointless story. EVERY CHAPTER HAS THE SAME PLOT! One incompetent alien puts the main character in situations full of sexual tension, then girl next door with amazing strength hits him even though it wasn't his fault. Then horny guy strips all the girls and feels them up. Then girl next door punches everybody. Then oblivious alien girl eats. The mangaka added a few other characters a few chapters in but they were all so lazily made. One character is just the main with a gender swap. THE MANGAKA PLAGIARIZED NOT ONLY OTHER WORK, BUT WAS TOO LAZY TOO EVEN LOOK UP ANOTHER CHARACTER AND PLAGIARIZE IT. THEY JUST TOOK THE MAIN AND SLAPPED A PAIR OF BREASTS ON IT AND HOPED NOBODY WOULD NOTICE. The characters sucked so bad I refuse to give the five seconds it would take to look up their names even though its open in another tab. Sometimes they'll toss in some other bland characters to mix up the story, but only maybe for five pages every five chapters. I honestly think the mangaka forgot about the characters and then, near deadline, was like "oh shit, I need another chapter in three hours! I'll just toss in this character nobody's seen this volume and recycle more bullshit story!" The art wasn't bad, but it definitely wasn't remarkable. It honestly pained me to go through with this story. I hope that nobody ever reads this, because i wouldn't force this manga on my enemies. I wish I had the time I from reading this back to do something more fun, like gouge out my eyes, or punch myself in the testicles for a few hours.

This is the anime that started my fascination with anime. In the beginning of the series it fulfilled my thirst for action when i was a kid. But after watching it years later, i realized that Evangelion was so much more than giant robots fighting each other. Every character in this series could have been picked directly out of the real world. Every single character is deeply, emotionally flawed, but entirely believable. While some people may complain that characters are whiny or annoying, they are real. The characters aren't some all powerful person who was chosen to save the ... world, they are normal*(they have some extreme issues, but they are normal). The art style of the nineties is definitely showing it's age, but I have seen worse. What is done with what they have is amazing. They use every scene to symbolize something vital to the story, and if you aren't paying attention, you may not understand the big finale. The sounds of this movie still give me chills just thinking about them. The sound of the cicadas screeching in the air as everything goes to hell around them sort of symbolizes the whole story. There is only one flaw to Evangelion that i see for new audiences, you may have to watch it twice. There is so much symbolism and other events going on in this series that it's impossible to understand everything in the first run through. But if you have the time, i recommend this 100%. Before with the final two episodes, i would suggest watching the movie End Of Evangelion in order to fully understand what is happening in Tokyo 3. I have read alot of manga and have seen alot of anime, but nothing has compared to the quality, beauty, and scale of Eva.
