Urobuchi's current work is even more underrated: Thunderbolt Fantasy. Seriously, the show is peak in almost every category.

Best christmas gift a fella could ask for

return of the king

My goat has returned!!

HE’S BACK!!!!!!!!

14:18 Something about Gurren Lgann's lore and science, it actually makes sense and has a meaning, it draws from actual science and theories for it to make sense. I like to think of those scene as: "Here's the official explanation for the nerds who care about that (Me, I'm that nerd), and here's the explanation for those who don't care about that"

Dude's the most realistic teen in anime history

promare is also another good to the both of these sereises!

You really did not pay attention to EVA if this is the result

great video! How about a follow up with Darling in the Franxx? It especially takes NGE's stance on sexuality and not only is a foil but makes it a key part of the narration.

Narrator: what is the message of NG:E and Gurren Laggan? Me, drunk in my office: “Evangelion says your need to face your problems, and you need to win, you have no choice. Laggan says your problems are going to face you,and you’re going to win, you have no choice. These are different.”

20:15 "Hey Carnage, do you know Candace?"

this is the best analysis of pp i've seen, thank you.

Eva: Life is scary and hard but thats just how it is some times GL: KILL GOD. ACCOMPLISH YOUR DREAMS BECUASE YOU CAN

The funny part is if Simon met Shinji i think they'd be friends.

This show is in my top 5 animes of all time! It fascinates me and scares me at the same time, this show is slowly becoming reality as things become more digitized and an A.I system being introduced into jurisprudence doesn't sound too farfetched! I can see why Makishima is sympathetic, he is the Ted Kaczynski, rejecting the techno dystopia and wanting man to return to a base level but his methods were unethical. He is my favourite character alongside Kogami, both reject modernity but have opposing methods!

i love these rants and as a sasuke fan i more enjoy the bashing he gets in these also i hate "naruto kun hands are so warm", moment was not included cause that was the cringest shit right next to i want to become hokage from sasuke and kiba

Bro anime is just made of pure you know what. Inappropriate parts and it suck like dog poo. Like if you want me to watch anime. Make one on HELLDIVERS 2. No inappropriate parts and full of the blood of the bugs.

Asuka was definitely wrong and did A LOT wrong, but that doesn't make Shinji's choice her fault. She is responsible for how her choices affected Shinji.

Dang, this was a really well thought out and put together video.

Just imagine if, the Angels were sent by antispiral

A fundamental misunderstanding of what Evangelion is.

I was thinking about this today, watching the more vulnerable moments, gave me flash backs to Evangelion. Glad this video exists

In other words... Kamina is the GOAT

I mean, I think Eva kinda answers for itself. I won't recap since other commenters have basically nailed the explanation, but Evangelion and Gurren Lagann basically comes to the same conclusion. Of course Eva is more subtle about it, and they're completely different tonally, but the take home messages of "humanity is worth fighting for" is not that different.

23:16 In Soviet Russia, moon fly's into you.

Simon was able to believe in himself, and keep pushing forward. he is always growing, improving, and refining himself. he was terrified in the first episode, but chose to move forward, to fight, for himself, his friends, his brother. the source of his motivation was his belief in himself, and everyone around him. it was his power, his fuel, and it formed his drill. he chose to fight to better everything and everyone around him. he fought to protect and better the life they all lived. he was able to achieve this because he believed in himself, in his friends, and in his drill. he was able to surpass and grow from everything that happened to him because of the believe, the power, the "drill" that Simon has in him, that kamina showed him by believing in it even when Simon didn't. Shinji is the opposite. he fights for the sake of fear. he fights because he doesn't want the blue hair girl to die, due to him choosing not to pilot the Eva. but, he was fighting for a stranger, he had no substance to his motivation, just fear. this leads to him running away constantly, making just getting into the Eva a battle. Shinji never wanted to fight, he never wants to improve himself, he choses to be a coward. he never tries to better himself, his situation, himself. he gives into to his situation, never even thinking about changing it. he is a slave to his surroundings, just doing as demands of him, not because he wanted to, or even because he thinks he can, but because he was expected to/pushed to. this is a stark contrast to Simon who fights for all his friends, with his friends because of his belief in himself and everyone around him, that they can and will win. Shinji is always truly alone, never growing, never fighting for his friends like Simon because Shinji's "friends" are fake and are horrible to him. this leaves him with no internal OR external drive of change, to become better, stronger, or change himself, those around him and their situation. and these are reflected in the endings. ttgl- saves the universe, destroying the anti-spiral, a all powerful, multi universal threat to life. drilling out a path for humanity to live for themselves, to choose how they wants to live, what they want to do. free from the one trying to crush and control them. evangelion- everyone is merged into one hivemind, giving up on fighting. they give up on change, on growth, on fighting, on believing in themselves, on believing in each other. they end up with everyone being no-one, and everyone, deleting the differences in each person. they become one being, incapable of change, in growth, in failure or success. they are just one creature, that's at its core, is the embodiment of the human ability to give up, to stop growing, and die, having never tried to become better.

Only one Pinhead... Doug Bradley. The Cenobites went woke.

"Just look at em, ADORABLE" had me dying

It was 3 years ago but still.Evangelion for me also about live to struggle.Evangelion should compared with ttgl,but in ttgl we should take only 12 first episodes.Because in Eva sinjie chosed to embrace difference and that he had to fight to live,because life worth it only at the end of evangelion,and Simon embrased it in battle agaist Guame.When you watching Eve you could understand for example why spiral king do what he did.If TTGL is great show but still it's literaly told you in last series that it's survivours mistake representation,when show you scene with hundreds of laggans who failed.When i was teen or young adult TTGL vibe was closer to me.But now when i am closer to 30 than to 20 it begin to turn around.Like TTGL show you if you not mascular,whole of spirit representative of manhood,you will suck but if you raise it in you you will crush trogh any wall.Evangelion answer,for you what to do when you not able to do it or if it's would not work.Yes characters in EVE struggle to life.Exactly.Because some of them just only grow from kids and worl put on them weight that not every adult can understand and hold,or adults that tryed to fought this life and it hits tham back damn hard.But Eva show you that it's okay,peapoles not perfect,world is not perfect,past and future and present not perfect it's full of shitiest shit.But yeah,you still get into damn robot.You still strugling to found at least little light in it to continue.You still here,and you alive.I don't know how to say it,TTGL say to you if you will fight hard and long enough yeah maybe you will have some losess but you would win in end.Eva told you win it'self dosent matter,even when you loose and all broken down you still able to live,there still reasons to live,even if you pushed down to eath and not able to even move,even if world once and once again show you you cannt win,sthere is mani inside yourself and outside this world that give you no chance of happy ending from fairy tale,keep going,even if it little by little,even if it's something unconventional,live.Even if sinjie hate to pilot Eva he still do it.Even if being alive and individual being bring him suffer and make him constantly fight:angels,problems in his life,his fears about frendship and sexual relationships,army of his inner demons,he still at the end of the day chosing live this life even if it seems terrible.TTGL-fight for your right to live.Evengelion-you have right to live so fight.

Kamina my beloved

Hot take but I didn't care about asuma dying

First of all, I want no arguments or bad will, I'm just stating an opinion, no intent of attacking anyone. Respect is important in many situations. I just wanna state something because the video overall is quite good and enjoyable, LIKE A LOT (good work btw effort really shines through), and hearing you say it made me want to put it into words, and also because I'm Catholic (a priest or someone like that, like you said, would make a more sound statement. I'm just a random on the Internet.) I feel like some people who equate some of the themes in Evangelion with Christian beliefs only see part of it. Yes, in Heaven there is supposed to be harmony and peace and joy but it is never thought of as abandoning your humanity. Because to reach Heaven, you have to be good of your own volition. As a human, you have the free will to choose between doing good and doing evil. To push against the darkness or to let it wash over you without resistance. To, even if the world seems fraught with bad things, work towards a better and brighter future AS HUMANS. It might never come to be Heaven on Earth, it might never even be close enough to consider it a good place to settle and relax. But we have to keep trying to, because it's the good thing to do, and so it must be done. I think, in that sense, TTGL comes closer to that reality than Evangelion. Because yes, the Instrumentality Project might seem peace achieved, but it's a decision taken without input of anyone but the main trigger, which even then can be argued doesn't have control over it either. It feels like fake Heaven, that wasn't earned through actions but rather thrust upon them as a pale imitation of happiness. TTGL is a future where people, despite bickering, despite butting heads, despite fighting and facing threats MANY times what they could theoretically manage, are working together for a better future for everyone! And really, putting your flaws aside and achieving understanding with the others is the love Christianity was built to pursue (despite things not having gone that way.... yeah that's its own can of worms). Idk my thought process kind of works while I write it down so its all jumbled up and confusing probably. I just think since God is Love and there's much more love to be demonstrated in TTGL's opposing what seems an unsurmountable evil for the sake of the ones you love than in Evangelion's passiveness at the state of reality (sadly common in today's society among Christians, we do fall in the "but really, what can I do? Nothing! So lets just live out our days quietly and pray for the good things to come." Mentality a lot), maybe both have that stuff going on. And maybe there's parallels in both. Maybe it's a What It Is vs What It Should Be kinda feeling in our attitude against the evil of this world. Or maybe I'm just seeing ghosts. Life is a weird thing yknow? ANYWAYS, great video, really cool! Have a great day :D I hope whoever reads this is doing well

The lyrics of a rap is a man’s soul from gurren lagann sum up the differences perfectly it’s almost like it’s directly talking about evongelion. (Do the impossible! See the invisible! Row! Row!

"Samoan"

jesus... coming up with something new... Yeah... I think there are great mixes of old and recent ones, that seem to reach new steps, but no one seems to dive into it. I burnt my hand, 3rd degree, so trying to understand evangelion was like trying to remember how bad it burnt. No thanks. Rise from the ashes! There's the simple meaning to it, and then you have all the nuances and windchimes that decorate the room for the ballad of pain. It's sad, but it gets scary, and that's just bad.

Ehhh yeah they're both good but, BELIEVE IN THE YOU THAT BELIVES IN YOURSELF!!! don't be a pussy life is worth living do your best to be your best no matter the cost or outcome hope is worth it

It's probably time to rewatch TTGL. I would love it's optimism now. I need it. It was one of my most favourite shows, now I think it is my most favourite show.

Resuming: EVANGELION IS WRONG AND EVANGELION'S CHARACTERS ARE A BUNCH OF LITTLE *BITCHES* DO THE IMPOSSIBLE SEE THE INVISIBLE ROW ROW FIGHT DA POWAH!

Heaven is not devoid of human emotion, there is Scriptural basis for being able to see, hear, taste, feel and touch as well as feeling the Holiness of God constantly. Basically to be in eternal union with God, loving Him and He loving you constantly. I enjoyed the video but if you ever pick from the Bible please be a bit more accurate instead of using cultural babylonian definitions, thank you for at least showing respect.

The reason why I hate Evangelion is because Shinji does nothing, he gave up in the first episode and refuses to try further. And this is not in any way narratively condemned in the anime, on the contrary, the anime tries to make the viewer sympathize with Shinji, and this annoys me the most. I'm disgusted by Shinji's character and because of this I'm disgusted by Evangelion, despite all its good qualities. And after watching this video and comparing these two anime in my head, I came to the following conclusion: the question of giving up or moving on is not a question, it's a test. If you decide to give up, you will be left alone in the ruins. If you decide to move on, you will reach the stars.

"Art is a reflection of the society in which it comes from" Painfully awful grammar in the first sentence of a 34 minute video essay. Yeah, I'm not watching this.

See this is why I thought I would love Gurenn Lagann, all the themes sound like something I’d go crazy for. But when I watched it I felt like it was missing something and I’m not quite sure what. Even the fanservice felt weirdly gross to me and i actually enjoy fanservice from time to time. I loved kill la kill, which is made by the same studio, with the same art style and some of the same themes and even more fanservice. Genuinely wanted to enjoy GL so much since I loved Eva too but it missed me. I didn’t even like Kamina, which is weird because he reminds me of Joseph joestar and I love Joseph joestar. Yoko is voiced by the same seiyuu as my all time favorite anime character (that’s the main reason I decided to pick up the show) but I didn’t feel the same energy from her. Completely baffled at this one. Anyway great video, I guess I will just be stuck in confusion forever

Gurren lagan was way to shalow

Why there so many anime haters in the comments here lmao This isn’t a anime hate channel you guys you’re in the wrong spot 😂

Bro I don't say this ever but you sound like a loser can tell you don't talk to living people in person very much

It’s less than issue with anime and more an issue with adaptations. Manga is a medium with a ton of exposition and monologuing. If you watch anime originals they tend to go more for the standard “show don’t tell” approach.

27:49 It's not wood style you need, it's Indra and Ashura chakra. Madara= Indra Jesus and Hasirama= Ashura Jesus. Still terrible writing!!!

I think there's too much hyperbole about Neon Genesis. The MC refusing to Pilot the giant robot can be traced back to Gundam. Thereafter, while the MCs of Gundam "steal" the robots, they don't automatically accept their responsibilities. Tomino's work are those of death and tragedy and the MCs of his work often suffer the worst. Gundam also started as an anime original and its sequel, Zeta Gundam, pretty much launched the popularity of mecha animes in general and original animations. It's also more of a parallel to starwars than Evangelion. Gundam pretty much launched the popularity of the "real robot" genre in which Evangelion partly belongs to that.

Other mecha anime like Rahxephon, Darling in the Franxx and even Gurren Lagann are inspired by Evangelion, but less pessimistic. Simon is who Shinji could have been with more confidence. Gurren Lagann is great, but without Evangelion, there is no Gurren Lagann!
