    I downloaded it. Deleted it. Downloaded it in better quality. Bught the limited DVD. Deleted the better quality version. Lend the DVD to a friend. Never got it back. Downloaded it. Watched it. Burned it to DVD. Lost it. Lend it from a friend. Gave it back. Downloaded it and deleted it again bacause I need space and had no DVD+-R around.

    And now 3 years later I read this as some kind of news?

    Damn, and I thought germany is like a third world country when it comes to anime.

    I personally believe that there isn't a correct interpretation of Evangelion; instead the creators just took a normal giant robot anime and threw in a random mishmash of religious symbols so people would think it's profound.

    How superficial.

    [SPOILER?]FYI , it's the apocalypse, leading up to the rapture, as told through a japanese giant-robots(with twist)-piloted-by-teenagers show.[/SPOILER]

    Also, they might have been taking a lot of acid when they wrote it. Mushrooms maybe... something that induces hallucinations and the belief that you can make whole segments of an animation show without animators ;)

    Ret me see what spling is rike
    On Jupitaa an Maazu.

    (I won't bore you with the rest of my transcription of the ending song.)

    Don't worry, you'll be able to see all 4 episodes that will remain after "light editing to make it family-friendly".

    With perfectly incompatible voices for the dub.

    Which episode? "Simpsodoki: Legend of the Overfiend", where Lisa gets violently tentacle-raped by Principal Skinner (who turns out to be a hideous monster from another dimension)?

    erm eyes darting left and right where do I get a copy of that?
