Stephen 776 Posted June 21, 2019 Share Posted June 21, 2019 Apparently Netflix scrubbed the gay from EP 24 of Eva Then what's even the point Link to comment

All the anti-Christ symbolism loses its meaning if Kawaru only "likes" Shinji rather than "loves" him. Link to comment
Young P Posted June 21, 2019 Share Posted June 21, 2019 Oof. Pretty bad hangover today. I threw up earlier and nothing really came out; one plate of pancakes later I feel like I might go try again. I called in sick and as if the anxiety of talking on the phone wasn't bad enough, my manager's tone of voice suggested she either didn't really believe I was sick, or she was just in a hurry to get off the phone with me. Either way it put me in a worse mood. On the bright side, I think that Crash Team Racing remake is out today? I'll probably log some hours on that once my headache goes away. Link to comment

Shadow118 Posted June 22, 2019 Share Posted June 22, 2019 Coughing and mucus has gone down a decent amount as far as i can tell Still dealing with a sore throat, hoarse voice and throat clearing, though... A couple days and half home might help... Link to comment
Stephen 776 Posted June 22, 2019 Share Posted June 22, 2019 okay let's find out what sarazanmai is all about. because i've convinced myself no summary will adequately explain wtf I'm getting myself into Link to comment
Youngster Joey Posted June 22, 2019 Share Posted June 22, 2019 Started watching Neon Genesis Evangelion for the first time. Four episodes down, really want to keep watching more. Link to comment
Young P Posted June 22, 2019 Share Posted June 22, 2019 I just started watching it too, only one episode down myself. I've heard that the new netflix translation is inferior, losing some of the depth of the original. I've never seen the series anyway so I won't know the difference but it does give me pause. That said, the first ep is a good one. I know this series gets pretty avant garde later on and I can already see hints of it coming through. Link to comment
Edie Napier Posted June 22, 2019 Share Posted June 22, 2019 (edited) Evangelion is a series that I'm certain most people are going to hate the shit out of or be confused by tremendously the first time they watch it. It wasn't until my third watch that things started falling into place for me. End of Evangelion in particular is is going to leave some people fucked-up. Edited June 22, 2019 by luca Link to comment

If I want subbed HD, I'll manage by myself, but thanks for offering to help. It was probably/hopefully a case of overly literal translation that just has really bad optics, but it's like "those 12 minutes are one of the first time I saw gay in media" so there's a lot of sentimental value to that sequence. And I'm more than halfway through magical kappa boys and I'm not entirely sure what to think about it. It's only 5 more episodes, so I might as well finish. It's enjoyable enough, I guess?

Edie Napier Posted June 22, 2019 Share Posted June 22, 2019 afaik it's a more literal translation than before, but it feels like the meaning in context of the scene is gutted of so much impact as a result. Oh well I still have my BDs with subs. I might watch the Netflix adaption to check out the dubbing, but eh. Link to comment

ace Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 I’m at a party right now. It’s really wish I was at home. Unfortunately I’ve had to much to drink due to a number of issues and can’t drive home. Man I’m unhappy and just want to be in my room with my fish and my own bed. Link to comment
"Casual Trash" Kirbys Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 I would rather go to a party right now than being submerged in homework Link to comment

Which doesn't make a lick of sense because it was Studio Khara's own hired translator, so you'd figure they would want to keep the impact of their own work intact. Link to comment
