Beveren_Rabbit 11/24/19 11:03:59 PM #15:	Yes. It's a staple Anime. However, it's so heavily referenced and influential that you will already feel like you watched it a dozen times. It's like the Seinfield of Anime. Very popular, but if it's your first time watching in 2019 it will seem a bit predictable and cliche even though it was all new at the time. --- flops <cite>Beveren_Rabbit posted [p:930656710] in Should I w...

It alters some scenes and dialogue for no logical reasons and they also changed the music and voice actors. They didn't even attempt to contact the original VA for the Netflix remaster. Dub is good, but the soundmixing is a bit bad when it comes to quieter characters like Rei.

Guide 11/25/19 12:09:55 AM #29:	That's true, but everything they're skewed by is generally poor mimicry of NGE.
