  • 19: Neon Genesis Evangelion Episode 14: Seele, the Seat of the Soul
    Apr 20 2024
    *** https://twitter.com/NeonPodcastEva1 *** *** https://evangelionpodcast.com *** Wherein our hosts free up an evening to continue Neon Podcast Evangelion. When challenges were made to Michael's availability for the evening, Steve presented his alternative: "That's fine. I can go find somewhere to drink beer." Long breaks make the show into more of an update on their lifelong relationship with Evangelion, and with developments in the Evangelion franchise. Sometimes just popular anime in general. The last year has seen Ghibli win another Oscar (and another Japan Academy Best Animated Prize - the final Eva Rebuild film won in 2022), A US limited release of EoE, and Anno continue with non-eva projects as apparently Japan's premiere server of anime nostalgia. We also cover the NGE clip episode and the first freaky monologue in the show, sometimes known as "Rei's Poem." Highlights: - Additional context for the Rei poem are truly fascinating, as described in Anno trying to write from a schizophrenic point of view and finding the disembodiment hitting a bit too close to home. Hebrew corner covers some good background on the inclusion of Lillith as an "Angel". - Lots and lots of vaguery regarding show details. Michael volunteers this as a feature for the listener to enjoy the experience of knowing the correct facts themselves. - No screenshot coverage, ideal for a clip show and the editor's family life. - Truly mad claim from Steve's daughter that her friends had listened to the show. Not possible.

  • 18: Neon Genesis Evangelion Episode 13: Angel Infiltration
    Mar 8 2023
    *** https://twitter.com/NeonPodcastEva1 *** *** https://evangelionpodcast.com *** Is that a PlayStation 1? No sir, that's a PlayStation 2 running NGE Platinum Edition in a cold shed. Is this 2000? nope it's 2023, the future, and they are doing it to it still. If God in His Heaven rewards tenacity, he hast done smiled on the Cousins Ayres this evening. Gripping the imagination of our arrestedly developed hosts is this unique entry in the Evangelion epiverse, where the rough grip on biology (and perhaps a rough grip on translation) that show has always had is brought to the forefront. What if the whole base is biological? What if we just call a laser robot a polysome. The similarly rough grip of our college graduates is on display trying to work sense into the sci-fi told here. Highlights: - The idea of this as a 'guest episode' is run with, even though there's not really much to go on for that idea. Regardless, the science concepts brought into this episode that are never further explored are unique and fun. - Though the play NERV makes to defeat the Angel truly makes less sense the further it's scrutinized. Just keep it at Gendo's take that evolution ultimately produces destruction. - Another weak showing for Neon Podcast Evangelion's Hebrew Corner. Hoping for a strong return next week! - It'll happen to you too, young listener: pretty much every reference we couldn't place was immediately vividly recalled with a little post show googling (i.e. Pribnow Box, Daft Punk anime videos). C-as-integer means nothing. - Apologies from the editor for not taking a blade to all the 'printer chat.' He must have nodded off during it.

  • 17: Neon Genesis Evangelion Episode 12: A Miracle's Worth
    Feb 15 2023
    *** https://twitter.com/NeonPodcastEva1 *** *** https://evangelionpodcast.com *** Have you ever wondered what it would be like to throw yourself further in time without the experience of living it to numb the changes? To hear your the fresh anxieties that come with a currently unknown circumstance of life? To hear even the voice attempting to reach about and connect over them itself weakened from the erosion of those changes? Then envy our hosts, dear listener, and live for today. Besides grim spectacle this episode features Evangelion! That life experienced speaker is attempting to put into counselling language the journey Shinji takes to a false understanding of happiness. Much appreciation is expressed of the excellent elevator work of the series. Evangelion in the News is a little light but plenty long! Evangelion chat shines bright even as the sun crosses the sky of life. Highlights: - Steve describes some awesome nightlife experiences. Normies beware hearing this classy dude describing his life well lived. - Two strong candidates for Steve's inevitable (too hopeful?) Evangelion tattoo: the intense bodybuilder flex explosion of Unit 01, and Shinji's happy idiot face. - Yes, recording ended damn hell late. You could tell? - Old man Michael gettin bitter about people not starting with the first Final Fantasy "... do whatever you want I guess."
