Yaho guys,
Well, since we are an Anime group (and Manga, and Gaming), I might as well act like I actually am a bit weebish... ,
so I though I might as well start this thread so we have something (hobby related) to talk about.
While going to sleep, I though, some Anime has actually some great scenes in it, that left an impact on ya, for whatever reasons.
Might as well see what had an impact on ye guys. Only I will go first..mhuahahahhahahahhah, I am an Evil Overlord. Maybe.
Also, as a warning, this thread will almost surely contain spoilers, so read at yer own risk!!
I will start with something slightly older, from when I was young and easily impressed (...) so maybe that's why this scene
always sticks in my mind when this Anime comes up in conversation or such.
I mean the scene from Neon Genesis Evangelion, specifically from the End of Evangelion alternate ending.
Ya know the one, where Asuka just pretty much goes nuts and just kicks the crap out of the bad guys.
It's a scene that Michael Bay would be proud of, explosion effects everywhere (well, in the first half anyway.)
And then just CQC with fountains of a strange red liquid everywhere. Like Strawberry Lemonade.
But yea, since it happens toward the end of the series, Asuka at that point is well spirit broken, and is pretty much apathetic,
doesn't want to do anything at all, and just sits there. Just like Shinji, the useless brat. But while just sitting there at the bottom of the lake,
a revelation occurs which gives her all the confidence she needs to just go and do stuff.
Said stuff being needed to help defend against the invading government forces to protect the base. And my, does she defend.
As I said, Micheal Bay would cream his pants over this part.
Then we get a cutaway to Shinji's part of the story, which is boring and pointless. But we just have to suffer through it.
And now it's back to Asuka, and as it turns out, the Eva Series has also been completed (ya know, the AI controlled Bio-Eva's, for lack
of a better word), and is about to engage in combat. So now Asuka, without powersupply and running on batteries must defeat them within a tight timeframe.
And this is where we see Asuka's true fighting prowess, as she literally tears them apart in what can only be described a controlled rage trip.
Other stuff is also happening, but for those who actually haven't seen this, I will not say anymore, and just let ya watch it it (via YouTube link).
As a special mention, I will also say I really enjoyed the scene where Unit - 01 goes totally berserk and eats the Angel's S2 engine.
That was also a pretty cool scene, such violence, which ya haven't really seen as much throughout the series until then.
So, what are your scenes that will always remind ya of great times watching episodes??
