I know I'm late, but I think the fact that I'm here now shows the staying power of Evangelion and actually parallels my experience with it. Once I finished the show and End I realized that yeah you're supposed to move on with your life. Just like Heather though all I could of was needing more Evangelion. I hadn't watched the show when get Anime'd first came out, but once I did I came straight here to hear what the gang thought. This was super cool to hear all of your perspectives on the show! Thank you for doing all of this and giving us Eva fans a little more to chew on.

Amy Molinaro

I'd love know if y'all went to the 2024 re-release of End of Evangelion!

Spencer Hayes

Genuinely insulting for Nick to compare this in any way to the Star Wars prequels lmao

Just subscribed before heading to the theatre to see movie so I could listen to this on the long drive home. I do love analyzing how the current me absorbs the movie over the years. Also, seeing it in a theatre was spectacular but I need a proper 4k of this to watch in my home theatre and hear the ground shake and Air sing through the speakers.

Peaches_En_Regalia

Thanks for this. Never really listened to Get Played but wanted to hear this while rewatching for the first time in years and enjoyed it very much. Heather was a great guide and it helped me piece together my own thoughts and clear little things up. This goes for the whole series and not just the movie.

wjodendor

Oh shit they're doing Kojima's current anime fix lol. As soon as i heard Kojima liked it i should have guessed. I'm currently watching it and it's a blast!

Carson O'Shoney

Watched this last night and it broke my brain. Here I thought the series was wild then this film goes 100x harder.

Pirate Arr

18 year old me set Komm Susser Todd to be my alarm on my final day of high school and as an adult that makes me laugh. I wasn't even sad it was over, just pure weeb angst. Also, Shinji is cancelled x1000

To those who haven't seen it yet: Y'all might wanna decompress with something chill like Hereditary afterwards.

BruceWayneBrady

I can't wait. I already had a new context for watching this movie based on the last podcast episode. I watched it again tonight for the first time in years to prepare for this.

El Wendigo

This was fantastic. Thank you for taking us on this ride with you. I’m in the heather boat in that I’ve seen Eva more times than I can count but can always take something new away from it. One thing I’ll add is if you want some more deep divey goodness, Check out the Sync Ratios podcast. Those guys really make an absolute meal out of every little detail of the series and the movies (albeit in a more straightforward way without the much of the levity of Get Animed but still a great supplement) CONGRATULATIONS

Console Canon

I'm glad the mixed reception to the Rebuild movies muted my expectations so much. That final movie hit me hard in a totally different way than End of Evangelion. I hope Matt & Nick will agree!

Ryan Rubalcava

10/10 podcasting. Cant wait for the next one. I think Madoka Magica comes close to EVA for me, but Utena def walked so it could run.

I always read the final scene on the beach as a sort of staging in miniature of Hegel's 'master / slave dialectic' (the thought experiment through he explains how the 'self' is constituted through consistently encountering and distinguishing itself from the 'other'). In the thought experiment, Hegel envisages a being coming into consciousness in the state of nature (the world prior to human society and culture) and encountering another being that is both similar to but distinct from itself (ie another human). Upon realising that this other entity is distinct from it, the first entity attempts to destroy it through violence, but, finding itself unable to do so (because their capacities are essentially evenly matched), the two entities enter into a paradoxical relationship of domination and mutual dependency, through the dominated individual, in which each comes to understand and define itself through its rejection of the other (the dominant figure through its feeling of superiority to its servant, the servant through its resentment of its master). This pattern, repeated and layered Leaving aside the question of domination, it feels like the beach, scene, in which a newly reborn Shinji - who appears to have been alone in the post-third impact 'state of nature' world for some time - is suddenly confronted with the newly reborn Asuka and responds with violence, before proceeding to a more complicated and emotionally fraught mode of co-existence with her, progresses through the stages of this dialectic, serving as a sort of primal scene of self-definition through negation (and, ultimately, uncomfortable accommodation) of the 'other'. Thank you for coming to my TED Talk...

Cal

Fantastic episode!! 🥰 thank y’all so much for the pod and the new insights 🌝 my first time rewatching the series in over a decade and the ending was wildly different from what I remembered… 😅 excited to jump onboard for the new show, which I know nothing about 💅

VHSMIA

Let’s goooooooo! Y’all reinvigorated my love of Eva! Thank you!

“This is movie. And movie different than TV.” - Matt

Ziggy242

Watching the movie made me depressed. I definitely prefer the shows ending. Also I understood the shows ending a little bit better the movie kind of confuses me.

AphexSchwinn

I loved the show. I loved this movie. I would say to anyone who has made it this far and has not seen the rebuilds, don't jump straight into them after this movie. Let it sit with you for a few months, then watch them later.

Mauricio Diocis

My first time watching this. It always scared me so I stayed away, much like Grant Morrison's work it seemed too complicatedly heady and honestly hard. But I in my twenties and now thirties started filling in holes that I once thought myself to much of a child to comprehend fully. Since I'm a big fan of GAINAX and thought that since I seen most of their catalogue, and since the show has already been wildly spoiled casually on the internet through comments or images, I was prepared for and knew what to expect. I was wrong. This shook me. To my core. Congratulations.

Rachael

Phenomenal podcast, phenomenal show. I have only seen Eva twice so this third watch through was the proverbial charm. Mostly because of Heather's extensive knowledge on it! I would love to get my hands on the essay she wrote about Eva and/or any of the literature she's read on it!I'm excited to watch more anime with you three and hear your insights!

Brock Landreth

I have to stick up for the Rebuild movies here because I think they’re getting unfairly maligned. To me the Rebuild movies are like Twin Peaks: The Return, an artist returning to a seminal work and creating this bizarre thing that pushes new boundaries and continues to deconstruct and comment on their own work with age and experience. I highly recommend them!

SweetOnion

This was my first watch of Eva (also possibly my first anime?)— at first I was waiting for them on stitcher premium but I caved and came to the Patreon bc I am ENTIRELY CONSUMED by this now!!!! I think about Eva every waking moment and I’m reading the manga. Listening to the pod along with the episodes helped me interpret it, and I honestly don’t think I would have thought it was as funny without the context that Heather gives! Thanks for giving me a new obsession on the level of Cloud Atlas (I am cringe but I am free)

Charles Dexter Weird

I watched EoE last night and although I’ve seen it before but this time was especially sad 😢 Asuka’s awakening and subsequent battle is so powerfully emotional

Delia

Awesome episode! Thank you guys for getting me to finally watch Eva, and for providing such a funny and interesting breakdown along the way. I’ve been watching anime for years and it’s both amazing/kind of a bummer that there’s really nothing like this show. Watched EoE over the weekend and some of those images will likely stick with me for life. Excited for Lycoris Recoil, seems like a fun anime buddy cop show!

Eric Foley

Such a fun ride! Loved the podcast and perspectives everyone brought to the discussion. I wanted to add one interesting tidbit that I don't believe was mentioned: - In Jewish folklore, Lilith was Adam's first wife, created at the same time. She refused to be subservient to her husband, so God cast her out of the Garden of Eden and created Eve from one of Adam's ribs. Fun fact: Lilith Fair (the 90s female-artist music festival) is named after her.

I remember playing "Come Sweet Death " on continuous repeat as a teenager in the early 2000s. The Winamp I used was (obviously) customized with a Asuka-themed skin.

Ricky Bardy

Can’t believe you guys are doing One Piece for the next 10 years

Y’andrew

This is my second watch (I think my first was prompted by Heather posting about Evangelion a lot when it first came on Netflix), and watching along with this podcast was incredibly enriching. After my first watch I just thought the show was incomprehensible, but now I think the show is incomprehensible and its creator agrees!

Josh Bays

What a great series, so fun to see Matt and Nick get to enjoy the series with fresh eyes while Heather acts as their Spirit Guide. I’m excited to see what you all do with the next series which I think is a great choice for a follow up. I largely agree with Heather re: the rebuilds, although I think a great follow up series after some distance would be to watch the rebuilds and other films.

joe lopez

I watched this movie for the second time a few months ago and something clicked about the ending for me: Shinji chokes Asuka because that’s how he started the instrumentality previously. My interpretation is that he saw how fucked the world is now and was trying to go back on his decision and it fails because he’s now just a normal human. I’m a little stoned so I hope this makes sense lol. Loved the podcast!

Zeon Liberation

I’ve never felt so called out yet so deeply understood than by this line “Coke Zero…great over-30 treat”. I laughed so hard I wheezed

Sexy Grandma's Retirement Home

The Japanese voice actor's scream when Asuka gets her arm gets sliced in half gave me chills and following scene turned my stomach the first time I saw this film. And the part where Shinji chokes her and "Come, Sweet Death" starts playing caused a well of emotions to bubble up inside me that confused me. Regardless how you feel about this movie, you have to admit it is affecting.

Daniel Baruela

This was my first watch of Evangelion and I really enjoyed it. It's definitely easy to see why it's become a cornerstone of anime. I'm glad they said they might do the Rebuilds in the future because I was considering diving right in and on further consideration, I should probably let the original series marinate in my mind-meat for a little while longer.

Bloo

I just realized how fitting it is that Heather got the frenzied flame ending in Elden Ring. Basically Human Instrumentality

Dan sulin

Nick jokes but I think anyone who felt like Shinji when the saw this when they are young could become Gendo. A man who absolutely doesn’t think he can be loved because he hates himself. My wife has a chronic disease and while she is okay now I know that may not always be the case and I also know that my self esteem is built by her loving me for the fuck up I am. She makes me a better person, husband and father. If I lost her I worry who I would become. So yeah I’m not Gendo but I kinda get Gendo on some levels

hao .

Loving Get Animed! Excited to see everyone get Heather to watch the final rebuild. Theres a documentary that came out with the final rebuild thats worth watching before or after. Its cool watching Annos perspective shift from Shinji to Gendo as they progress. Leaving eva is absolutely realized as well. Loved hearing Heathers insight, sometimes gave me goosebumps. I always thought that EoE and the show were parallel but branch off, the original blue body of water intention is so far from the anger that is EoE. One is a warm hug the other is confused choking. One says people scare me but i think id like to consider trying. The other says fuck you! Lol, I think Anno grew to despise eva and us somewhere in between. Cant wait for more. Congratulations!

Dean Lowdon Clear

Really enjoyed the podcast, but just left totally confused by the last two episodes of the series and the last half hour of this movie. I’m not one that always wants a neat ending, but at times it seemed like I was watching a bunch of random images flash up on screen and I had no idea what was going on.

Adm. Bonetopick

This was not my first watch of Evangelion, but it might as well have been. I watched it when it first came out on netflix, but as a young adult with ADHD who was mostly expecting a different Gundam-y/Voltron-y type of series, i bounced off it a little and didn’t even bother watching End of Eva. I actually ended up going pretty hard into the wikis and “Evangelion Explained”-type articles just to see what i was missing. And with all that background knowledge, revisiting the show while listening to the perspective of other first-time watchers gave me a whole new sense of appreciation and admiration. The attention to detail and the depth of characterizations that i missed the first time around really struck a chord with me. So thank you for that! I don’t know if this is feasible or interesting for you three, but i’d love to hear a follow up episode in a month or so (or more, or less, or never, you don’t owe me anything!) after everyone’s had a chance to digest and maybe read up on the background some more. Because for me, that’s what really cemented a newfound love for the show, and helped me see it from a perspective i was lacking (basically sometimes i need someone to just tell me exactly what happened).

Shart Carbuncle

Watching this series for the first time and listening along as I went was a terrific experience. Thanks for everything.

Holden Rogers

I love listening to you three so much! You guys help me get through my work shifts and my train ride commute to school. I can't wait to see what anime you all watch next!

Fear All You Hear - Gareth

Loved this whole run, shuffled around my podcast queue to make sure when these came on I was in a place I could sit and properly listen too. Congratulations!

Food Force 5000

What a profound joy it has been viewing Evangelion again with you. I was excited and genuinely moved to hear what it was like for Matt and Nick to experience this masterpiece for the first time. It was revelatory to get Heather's take on everything... I got to watch through her eyes, and her perspective allowed me to recognize themes and details I never caught on my own. This was the closest I will get to reliving the experience of watching NGE for the first time. Love you guys.

I want my baby back baby back baby back ribs.

I watched the netflix version of this, and hearing them talk about talk about it, they really Neutered it. No Shinji wanking it, just hard cut to Shinji looking at his hand covered in cum. Also asuka's graphic death was cut as well. I really need to get a VPN! I think Lycoris Recoil is available on the Japanese Netflix too.

Brian Lynch

What a great ride! All of your insights over the series have been funny and enlightening. Much like with your Last of Us coverage, Heather’s enthusiasm and openness about her personal connections to the stories deepened my appreciation of things I already liked a great deal. Thanks!

Alexis Talavera

Hey Gang, just wanted to let y'all know that the link for ep 14 is dead for some reason (or there's something completely borked on my end). Anyways, looking forward to hearing the final take on one of my favorite series of all time (Get Animed, not Neon Genesis, ick.)
