Listen, I’m getting all the upgrades I can get before progressing to the next area and there’s a 1% damage boost awarded for catching one of every fish
Everyone remembers the first time they spent the whole day playing an optional side quest instead of progressing the game.
That one summer I spent multiple afternoons fishing in Ocarina of Time.
What anime are the screeencaps from? Anyone know?
What anime
A giant waste of time and braincells
hard to read irony online. have a binge.
No irony, legitimate question! Haha 😂
Thanks! The link didn’t fully load for me, just the heading with the character’s name and the footer with no styling. But with that, I found that this is Neon Genesis Evangelion. Going to binge.
Yeah😆, the series is famous, advertized in Japan monthly, so it’s hard to miss not knowing about it. It’s as famous as Star Trek.
That’s really cool! I’ve definitely heard of it before, just haven’t ever seen it. Looking forward to it!
Also maybe just jump into the remake movies first. They are a lot tighter and have a high budget, hitting some of the high points of the series.

Don’t get me wrong, there’s some fascinating history with the eva show and it’s own movie, and it was all so influential that it bled into tons of anime. Its just… probably not as enjoyable to watch the series now. Youve already seen some of its concepts through cultural osmosis. If that’s your jam then go for it after the remake movies
No no no. No one should ever watch the remakes. The OG show and End of Eva movie, while not perfect, are an extraordinary and focused (again, with a few exceptions and missteps along the way) artistic expression from a soul in pain trying to understand and work through their traumas, the kind of exercise that some of the best art comes from.
The remakes are nonsensical meta garbage about Anno (the artist in question) trying to leave behind this behemoth IP empire that he accidentally created and desperately wants to be free of, to the point that he couldn’t even finish the damn things himself.
While I appreciate the sentiment, I truly regret the time I spent watching the remakes.
