I got around to watching the final rebuild of Evangelion film (3.00+1.01) this weekend and have some thoughts.
I was not a fan through the first half of the film but gradually warmed up to it by the end. If you strip away a lot of the story, you can read it as Anno's parting thoughts on the property and the fact that he's matured as well.
What I liked:
- the closure
- the music
- seeing the characters age
(1/?)
The final part of the Rebuild of #Evangelion tetralogy is on Amazon so you can probably guess what my plans are for this evening.

"The hero-female has to have a waist so tiny that it couldn’t possibly accommodate ribs or any internal organs. Intelligent female characters are invariably nerdy and far less attractive; beauty and brains can’t go together in animation world. "
