Edited this trailer back when I worked at ADV. Yeah its all action sequence based but I sorta opt'ed for that at the time, it was actually just a bonus trailer out of all the trailers made for the at that time. Pure experiement wing it goodness..
Hi there. This may seem completely out of left field but I wanted to say thank you. I grew up on ADV DVDs and this trailer (alongside Orphen, Nadesico & Garasaki) helped me through some troubled times. It inspired me to be an editor and while I don't do much these days, I'll always be grateful for this wonderful trailer. You did an amazing job
@@CoreIdeas thanks alot man, it was fun to edit, i wasnt trained either, i just loved making trailers that were worth fans haahha... i miss doing them, footage and pacing with deep true emotional tales in anime is like magic man, its like wait... what do i do again hahah i hear you !! thanks for the tag back, lifts me up!
wow... thats an awesome statement, i havent watched it on netflix, honestly i kinda agree, you need a great trailer to fall in, and man, i hate seeing shows with insane art and yet no one knows it ya know ahah
Pay close attention to the very end of the video. This was probably made either before or during airing the very early episodes, cause there’s not a lot of later footage. However, there is a shot of ritsukos dead body. Now this must have been long before the tv show ended, so it’s curious to see that’s how they wanted to end the show, much like how we got the end of evangelion ending a few years later.
Misato's too. And right after that there's a shot of shinji's hand. It looks like the hospital scene from eoe, but with blood. I thought it might be a scene from when he cries after misato dies, but the exact shot isn't there. Or it's in some other version
Actually, Ode to Joy is apparently a spiritual celebration of the ideal of unity and brotherhood of all mankind, which is the ultimate goal of Nerv's Instrumentality project.
At the time it was hailed as a reinvention of the giant robot genre. It places a focus on the character's emotional breakdown over the course of the series. It also eventually bucks conventions by abandoning the plot's continuity in favor of abstract imagery that wanders through the minds of the characters. Some of the best animation for its era. It is an interesting psycho-sociological commentary for the philosophically minded - the movie is also quite disturbing. Highly recommended!
Basically, NGE took every little thing about mecha anime and turned it on it's head. It shows how messed up the individuals who are in those series would actually be. The point where people start to get turned off is when the series focuses more on Shinji. At that point, it becomes less about the mechas, and it becomes more about each characters personal journey. Oh yes, it also has some of the most messed up scenes in any anime, that still shock to this day.
Oh hey I saw this at the beginning of Destroy All Monsters too! I've tracked down the Battle Angel trailer too. But I sadly can't find Gunhed anywhere. Though I heard that flick was lame. Still three awesome trailers before one awesome movie. Win.
Not only that but, scenes from the last few episodes and movie, that show these seemingly flat characters are deeper. Ritsuko is a good example, she starts off as just the regular scientist, Ms. Exposition, until we see just how many secrets she knows. After that she becomes much more sinister and sad.
@pcnerdjack14 You either understand, or don't understand Evangelion If you understand it, you will love it. If you don't have any brain, you will hate it.
How can one understand Evangelion? Even it's creator down not understand it. You don't love or hate Evangelion based on weather or not you understand it, you do so on weather or not you interpret it, and how you do so. Me, I like Eva (especially the 10-16th episodes), but I don't love it, and I fully admit to it being overrated (anything over an 8 out of 10 is overrating it). As for the endings, the TV one is a disappointment and the movie one just pissed me off.
