Ep 1–5: You can really tell it’s 1995. The animations, sound effects, pacing—oh god, the pacing. I feel so spoiled by animé like The Promised Neverland that craft the intensity and energy of each moment to skilfully. Playing on 1.5x for now.
NGE reminds me of Avatar: The Last Airbender. It’s such a show I love, but so hard to get into if you don’t have that emotional bond, or are watching with someone who does. The first few episodes all feel the same-ish, and more of each other.
@DarbraDawn @KenBearIsland on episode 8; struggling. I’m glad I stuck through the first 30m of Holy Mountain, because I really did love it after that. Is there a point where NGE picks up? https://t.co/JQmUYK6AXM

The theme song feels like home. A kind of weird and lonely and happy I know. Like I’d be welcome. https://t.co/UHCNk3NKrM
Sometimes people takes pieces of media as personal insults. This show feels like the opposite of that, whatever it may be. It made me feel I wasn’t crazy 😢 https://t.co/nBUrzI2ykm
